You can order high-quality prints through your online gallery or print your downloaded images elsewhere with your print release. If you and your family like DIYs, you can use your printed family pictures to create wooden photo boards, making them a fun family activity!
Step 1: Gather Your Materials for the Family Photo Gift Idea
For this craft, you will need:
- Electronic sander with 180 grit sandpaper
- Wooden board
- Photos
- Pencil
- Measuring Tape
- Mod Podge
- Foam Brush
Step 2: Measure and Mark Where Your Photos Will Go
To ensure your photos are centered and have equal spacing between them, measure and mark where you would like your pictures placed on the board using a measuring tape and a pencil.
Step 3: Paint Mod Podge inside Your Markings
Use the foam brush to paint some Mod Podge inside your markings. The Mod Podge will serve as “glue” to attach your photos to the board.
Step 4: Smooth out the Photos and Sand Their Edges
Keeping your photos straight, lay them flat on the areas where you applied the Mod Podge. Wrap an old gift card/credit card in a small rag. Then, tip the card at a 45-degree angle and lightly move it from one end of the picture to the other end until you’ve squeezed all the bubbles out between the photos and the board. Once the Mod Podge is dry, lightly sand the pictures’ edges using the sander.
Step 5: Coat the Entire Board with Mod Podge
Clean the surface area and coat the entire board in Mod Podge to seal the images and give the project a shine.
Step 6: Give the Board as a Family Photo Gift Idea for Christmas
Once the Mod Podge is dry, feel free to tie or glue a bow onto the board for added flair! You can wrap it up and give it to a loved one for Christmas, filling them with joy and cheer!
