Father/Daughter Dance Picture Frame

I’ve been saving this idea forever… I wanted to give my dad an awesome gift for Father’s Day to remember our father daughter dance from my wedding.  He worked so hard when I was teaching him the foxtrot I thought he deserved a great gift.  We danced to “Just Fishin” by Trace Adkins {my dad and I enjoy fishing together.. since I was little}.  The lyrics are great and really hit home, so I wanted to use the lyrics and my favorite picture of my dad and I right when the song ended.

This is an easy and inexpensive gift {you can do this for your spouse, father, mother, anyone!}.  What you will need: pen, lyrics to a song, picture frame, picture frame mat, picture

So simple: write out the lyrics across the frame mat {or around the square would be fun too}.  Just make sure you know what way the picture is going in {vertical or horizontal}.  If you pay attention to my end result you’ll see I had to start over.  Ha!  I used a ruler to try and make it even.  Please excuse my bad handwriting!

And TA Da!!!  Perfect gift!
