Just like when we re-sized the photo to fit the frame, make sure the eyeholes aren't larger than the Ping-Pong "eyeballs," so they don't fall through the front of the portrait. Use a utility knife to cut the eyes out of the portrait.If you have printed out the photos in 8.5" x 11" this will also help the seams slightly disappear. *Bonus: If you want to add an old world, varnished look, give the photos a couple of coats of yellow tinted white glue. You then trim and spray glued the photos to foam core, matching up the seams.The beauty about these photos is that they don't have to be perfectly photographed, or expertly printed! For our purposes, they just have to be fun!.*Helpful Hint: If you don't have a giant printer or time to get the photos made into a poster, just print the photos out in 8.5" x 11" sections. Just make sure when you size your photos you don't make the eyes larger than the circumference of the Ping-Pong ball halves, or else they might fall through the portrait. After you are finished playing with your photos, re-size them to the frame's dimensions.You can play with sepia tones, over-lay costumes, or even superimpose props like hatchets, pumpkins, etc… We've taken images of our Family Member and photoshopped them to suit our project.You can find them at craft stores, garage sales, or even from cheesy wall art found at discount big box stores. It can be any ornate, or exaggerated frame.
