Popsicle or ice cream sticks, which you throw away, can be used to make wonderful crafts. Popsicles are low-priced; available in abundance and more often turn out to be worthy treasure on craft completion.
 

Popsicle Photo Frame
Materials, which you require, are: -
» Popsicles or ice cream sticks- 2 or 3 bunches

If you want a colorful photo frame, paint the popsicles with a colour of your choice before starting the craft. Here I am not painting it.

sticks

Line the Popsicle sticks one after the other horizontally on the floor as if you are filling a square shape. Take 3 Popsicle sticks, apply glue and stick them vertically on the square shape (Popsicle board) leaving equal space in between. It keeps the popsicle board intact without falling apart. Let it dry for 5 minutes.

square frame

Once dry, turn over to the smooth surface and let's construct the frame of the photo. For that lets stick a Popsicle horizontally at the base of the Popsicle board. Apply glue on the two ends of the popsicle and stick 2 Popsicle sticks vertically from the edges, complete the square frame with another Popsicle on top vertically.

To further decorate the photo frame, glue beads of various shape and color over the popsicle photo frame.
