Materials:
(1) inexpensive wood photo frame to fit your picture of choice, like this
(1) picture of choice from last year’s now on sale calendar
(1) pair of scissors or utility knife
(1) ruler
(1) sheet of metallic tissue paper

Directions:
Remove the staples from the calendar and separate the pages. Measure your “usable” margin and trim the picture to fit the frame being sure to leave space around for the tissue to show.

Trim the tissue paper to match the full size allowance of the picture frame. Now here comes the fun part – take out your day’s stress and crumple the hell out of the tissue paper. Lay it flat and smooth it back out enough to still fill the frame but not enough to take the crinkles out.

Carefully (okay, I didn’t do it carefully, but you should) secure your tissue paper to the frame backing, then your picture to the tissue paper and set in frame.

Voila! Time to hang!

You now have an adorable frog in a tub to direct your guests to the best place to tidy up!
