special hand & footprint gifts for different occasions

I love hand made gifts so when eloise was born I was so excited to be able to make  gifts for  family and friends and to have memories of making them with eloise. As a child my mother always helped us make handmade gifts. I have always preferred hand made gifts as it meant someone cared enough to take the time and put thought into the gift. over the past year we have made many different gifts for all occasions and holidays. these will make awesome keep sakes which if you wanted to make something similar each year  for different people the change in foot and hand size is always something that will change and not be the same each year as she grows and if the art is displayed out in the open you can tell by size each years painting and the ages or difference a year makes they grow so fast its great to have keepsakes like these and they make awesome art for walls.

what you will need:
none toxic paint (assorted colours)
canvas mini or medium size
paint brushes different sizes
googlie eyes
glue
glitter/glitter paint
ribbon
water to wash hands or brushes between colours
baby wipes work perfect to clean off the paint quickly from hands and feet

Here are the many different gifts we have made in the past two years
