Adorable idea, Angie!
Having taught Kindergarten I know my way around a paper plate craft (they're so versatile!) but I've never doubled them up to create a frame before. Clever!
Thanks for sharing a cute project that has obviously stood the test of time 🙂
This looks like a fun project for me to do with my soon to be kindergartner this summer. It is very cute. Thanks!
That is adorable, Angie!
Another cute project that makes me miss having little people around the house.
Very cute project. Great for the kids. Big and little.
