Kid Craft: Photo Cube

Creating a photo cube from 12” x 12” paper is easy enough for small children to do, but fun enough for tweens and teens. Using Removable Glue Dots® to attach photos, means you can make the box once, but switch out the photos as many times as you’d like! It’s the perfect summer boredom buster, room décor, or handmade gift.

Customize your box with your favorite colored card stock or funky patterned paper. If you plan on making this for a gift, you may want to use Ultra-Thin Dots in place of Removable Dots.
