Those of you who know me know that “crafting” is not my middle name. But this particular one was pretty easy, not too messy, and fool-proof enough even for those of us (pointing finger at self) who are crafting-inept.

I got all my supplies from
Candy’s Etsy shop. Below are all my ingredients for this craft recipe:

The particular trays that I bought will hold a 1.25” square photo. So I picked out a few favorite family photos, printed them on a 4x6 photo, cut them out (no precision necessary – crooked edges don’t show up in the end product), and dropped them in the tray to see which I liked best.


Then I just poured a couple drops of the glue in the tray, swished it around with a brush I pulled out of Little Dude’s watercolor paint box, and dropped in my chosen photo.

I let it dry for an hour or so, repeated the glue step on top of the photo and dropped in the glass tile. Easy-peasy, I tell ya. And kinda cute, if I do say so myself.
