December is here!
December is a great month for crafts! My month is filled with crafts and baking with my children. I love crafts but my favorite crafts are the ones that I can reflect back on… this has to be one of my favorites:)
Handprint Holidays
You can paint this on anything but I have this on a plate and will you directions for a plate.
You will need the following for this craft:
– acrylic paint
– brushes
– baby wipes
– a glass platter or plate
We used brown paint for our reindeers and green for our trees. So their hands were reindeers who are tangled up in Christmas lights and a little ones foot is perfect for a Christmas tree.
You can definitely change it up. I have seen angels painted using feet and trees made with hands. I just thought this idea was cute.
*remember, if you do not like your design – you can simply wipe it off using water and start again.
Once you finished your ceramic plate – set the paint by baking the plate in the oven at 300° Fahrenheit for 30 minutes. I suggest leaving your plate in the oven, turning it off and allowing the oven to cook down and then removing the plate.
I look at back at this plate and remember when they were this little. Best handmade craft ever. These are also really great gift for family members.
