Click Here to Find All Summer Basic Craft Projects >   Seashell Picture Frame     Instructions: 1. Heat up your hot glue gun and use it to “draw” a curvy line along one of the long sides of the frame. Immediately press the cording on this line until you reach the end of it. 2. On the short end, make a straighter line and also follow the line with your cording. 3. For the next long and short side, follow steps one and two again until you reach the end. 4. Cut the remaining cording away and secure the end. 5. On each corner, make a drop of hot glue and press a larger seashell immediately in the hot glue. 6. At random points, glue seashells along the sides of the frame as well. 7. Insert your picture and you are finished.
