Make your own thread pictures with nails – ideas, instructions and templates

Crafts can encourage children's creativity, concentration and patience. For this reason, these thread pictures are also perfect for children, preferably between the ages of 7 and 14.

In order not to injure your fingers while you still have to hold the nail, you can work with tools such as a magnetic nail holder. First, the nail is inserted head down into the guide hole of the Fix nailer, then it is carefully hammered.
