Arts & Crafts: Let Snapfish help unleash your creativity!

Scrapbooking goals with custom notebooks and personalised gifts

As people continue to limit their time out of the house due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they’re looking to beat boredom with fun activities. Because of this, a lot of people have picked up new hobbies to occupy their time, like crafting or baking. If you’re looking to enhance your creative projects, let Snapfish help!

Art Supplies + Essentials

When you’re working with paints, glue, or anything messy, you’ll want to protect your tabletops from crafting mishaps. Our personalised placemat will definitely help safeguard any surface from scissor scratches or paint spills. If you need to keep your art supplies tidy when not in use, try one of our personalised tins.

Create scrapbook albums using photo books and photo prints

During quarantine, a lot of people have been making collages out of things found around the house. Why not collect up all your old magazines, catalogues, and free Snapfish photo prints to inspire your own masterpiece? To create a collage, you’ll need poster board, glue, scissors, found paper cut outs, markers, and paint. If you think glue might be too messy for smaller kids, they can still get in on the fun with a sticker collage!

Culinary Delights

What could be sweeter than a photo book featuring all your favourite recipes

After you’ve worked up an appetite from arts and crafts time, it’s definitely time for a treat. Banana bread anyone? If you’re like most people, you’ve probably perfected your grandma’s secret recipe over the past several months. To make sure that recipe stays in the family, write it down! Or better yet, create a family cookbook to pass down to future generations. You can easily create one in our project builder. Just choose a photo book style, size, and add in your own photos and recipes. When you start baking, don’t forget the chopping board and tea towel to help minimise messes!

DIY Idea

DIY photo puzzles using large format prints

If you’re feeling extra crafty — create your own puzzle! Whether you’re spending time solo or hanging with the family, puzzles are always a great way to pass the time. This past spring, a lot of stores sold out of puzzles because of the high demand! If that happens again, you can always create your own puzzle with supplies you probably have around the house.

What You’ll Need

Directions

  1. Cut your cardboard or poster piece to match the size of your photo print.
  • Apply your photo to the cardboard with adhesive. Smooth the image with your fingers so the glue is even.
  • Let it dry overnight. Apply a flat heavy object, like a book, so it dries evenly.
  • Once dry, draw jigsaw style pieces on the back of the cardboard with your pen or pencil.
  • Cut out each piece with scissors.
  • Mix up the pieces and put it back together!
