What do we need?

template for frame
cardboard or thick colored paper(A4 format will be enough)

How to do it?

First you need to print out the frame template. It looks like this.

If you don't have the opportunity to make a printout, then make a template for a homemade paper frame with your own hands. To do this, you need to place a photograph in the center of the sheet and trace its outline (or simply draw a rectangle of the appropriate size in the center of the paper). Then set the strips aside different sizes(alternate strips 1.5 cm and 1 cm wide). Make indentations at the top and bottom as shown in the template.

The short sides are folded first, followed by the long ones. We need to insert the corners of the long sides of the paper frame into the corners of its short sides to secure the structure tightly.

If the paper is very thick and glossy, it makes sense to insert the photo first, and only then fold the sides. This way it will “sit” tighter. If you are worried about the design, you can drop a little glue or use double-sided tape.

Paper photo frames often also include drawings or cards with your favorite motivational quotes.
