I love displaying photos around the house and this year the grandparents will be getting a lovely one from our recent family shoot. Photos can make great gifts especially in homemade frames! My grandparents have always had a huge influence and been an inspiration to me. I vividly remember them keeping a perspex photo cube on their bedside table. The photographs they chose to display, completely summed up my childhood. Birthdays, afternoons in the garden and traditional British outfits - check out my cousins in their sailor suits!
Fill the box with tissue and stash a little present inside. Perfect for table favours or a thank you for your children's teacher.
Materials:
- Card - plain or patterned
- Sticky tape
- Photos cut to size (4.25cm by 4.25cm)
- Embellishments, pens, stickers, glitter!
Instructions:
Step 1: Print
Step 2: Decorate
Step 3: Assemble using sticky tape
Step 4: Either cut out the photo squares and place your photos inside the cube or stick to the outer sides
You can also open the file in Photoshop and overlay your images to print straight onto the card.
Get your children involved and decorate them together.
My gift to you, a printable Photo Cube!
As my grandparents would say "Compliments of the Season!"

Such a simple idea. Punch holes in a blank box canvas and push your set of fairy lights through. Secure the end with tape. I hung ours on a storage dresser but you can use battery operated lights if you are hanging it on a wall and you don't want to see wires.
I chose a simple tree shape and the boys were ecstatic when they came down from their bath to the big switch on in the play room!
