Cute Centerpiece

You can make a really cute centerpiece for a child's birthday party. Take a nice picture of the child and blow it up to an 8 by 10 size (or bigger.) Then glue it to some thin cardboard (I used a shirt box) and cut it out. For the stand, you could either leave some cardboard at the bottom and fold it under or you could cut out more cardboard and fold it into an "L" shape and glue or tape it to the back. I used the first method and then reinforced it.
Lily really liked seeing herself on the table and grandparents seem to love these, too. (I made two of these and one went home with Grandma and Grandpa G.)
