Mother of Pearl DIY Mosaic Photo Frame Craft Kit for Girls Ages 8-12 | Make-your-own Activity, Summer Projects, Tween Gift, 9 Year Old Birthday Present, Creative STEAM Activity

My daughter picked the Purple Ladybug DIY mosaic photo frame kit as a gift for her friend, and it was perfect. The kit comes with everything needed to decorate the frame, and the colorful mosaic pieces are fun and easy to use. Her friend loved making it and was so proud of how it turned out. The finished frame looks adorable and feels sturdy enough to actually display. It’s a creative, hands-on gift that keeps kids entertained and lets them make something personal. I’d definitely buy this again for birthdays or craft days. Great quality, beautiful design, and a wonderful gift idea for kids who love being creative.

My daughter really enjoyed this arts and crafts picture frame kit, she designed the frame and put a picture from our family beach vacation in it!

This mosaic picture frame kit is an absolute hit! Everything you need comes neatly included, making it super easy to get started right out of the box. The wooden frame feels sturdy and works perfectly for both 4x6 and 5x7 photos, and the genuine mother of pearl shell pieces are beautiful—they have a natural, shimmery, multi-color shine that really makes the finished frame look special and high quality. Each piece is unique, which lets kids get creative and design their own one-of-a-kind pattern. I also love how kid-friendly this kit is. The glue and spreader stick make application simple with very little mess, and all the materials are non-toxic, so I felt totally comfortable letting kids work independently. It’s not just fun—it actually helps build patience, fine motor skills, and planning as they decide where each piece goes. The end result is something they’re genuinely proud to display. This makes a fantastic gift for creative kids ages 6–12, whether for birthdays, holidays, or a rainy-day activity. Highly recommend!

This picture frame craft was for the grandmas for Mother’s Day and my 4 year old got a big kick out of placing the glass tiles and spreading the glue. We let them sit for a couple days before the grouting and had no issue with the tiles falling off. I’d say that the instructions were straightforward and all of the packaging components were sealed well, so we didn’t have any issues with dry glue or open plaster pouches like a couple of the other reviews. The plastic for the “glass” of the frame is clear. It looks cloudy in the package, but it has clingfilm on both sides that needs to be removed. In the second picture, I grouted them as that’s really a part of the project that would be easier for a much older child than 4. The one on the left, I free handed the grouting and I think that turned out much nicer than the one I had walled off on the edges with tape. I think they underestimate the amount of water that needs to be added, because the thicker the grout, the harder it was to spread and covered over many of the tiles to where upon waiting a few minutes, it was too hard to simply wipe off of the tiles and I ended up having to scrape and chip some of the grout off of the tiles. After 20+ minutes of chipping, I still don’t think it looks all that great. For the price, I’m very happy with how they turned out, but I think that if I were to do this again, I would probably buy some extra plaster of Paris just in case because it dries quickly while you’re working. Overall, I think the frames look nice and the grandmas will display pictures in them proudly and they won’t look out of place displayed with store bought frames.

This mosaic photo frame craft kit was such a fun project for my daughter! She loved every minute of it. It’s the perfect level of challenge and creativity for kids. The final product is super cute and makes a sweet keepsake. The frame itself is sturdy and well-made, definitely great value for the price. I also love that it’s a screen-free activity that encourages hands-on creativity

I’m very impressed by the frame quality. It’s a fun craft and makes a wonderful gift!

This is a fun little project. Little ones had fun spreading the stones all over the frame.

Okay not the best but it was fun. No measurements for the grout

Perfect creative and fun idea for children. Made a lovely gift and was good value for money.

A great gift for a child who loves art

Great fun to do with my granddaughter who is not very patient! Looked really good when finished and quality of supplies were good too

Kids loved this activity Gems are various and numerous. They come in vibrant colors and there is more than enough. Glue sticks well and the frame is solid enough. My 3 and 6 year olds (boy and girl) both had fun with this activity.

Excellent creative present.
