What You’ll Need
- Protective sheet or newspaper (to protect surfaces while painting)
Method
1. Lay down a protective sheet or newspaper on your work surface to prevent any paint or glue from getting on your furniture. Make sure all your materials are within reach.
2. Start by painting the entire frame with yellow acrylic paint. Apply a thin, even coat and let it dry completely. Once dry, apply a second coat to ensure the color is bright and solid. Let the frame dry again before moving on to the next step.
3. To give your frame the unique look of the ‘Friends’ door peephole frame, create small, wavy detailing along the edges. If using thick craft foam or clay, cut or mold thin strips and glue them around the frame edges in a wavy pattern. You can also paint the wavy details directly onto the frame if you prefer.
4. Once the paint and any added details are dry, you can apply a gloss finish to the frame. This step is optional but adds a nice shine and makes the frame look more polished. Use a clear spray sealer or a glossy Mod Podge and brush it evenly over the entire frame. Allow it to dry completely.
5. Decide on which part of your door you want to place your ‘Friends’ door frame. Use craft glue, double-sided tape, or a hot glue gun to attach it securely. If you’re using the frame as a decoration rather than a functional peephole, any placement on the door will work.
6. Add any final touches or decorations to your frame, like small pictures, beads, or sequins, to make it unique. Now you have a fun and personalized ‘Friends’ door frame to enjoy every time you enter your room!
