Day Sixty Seven: Handprints

{ March 8th }

I saw this in a Pottery Barn Kids catalog the other day. I'm only on the mailing list because I use them as my "idea books" for things I want to eventually do in the girls rooms. Some times I cave and buy stuff, but sometimes I try and make it myself for cheaper. { and then spend the money I saved on frappuccinos } This is one of my 'I can do it myself' projects.

I wanted to use bright colors because I'm putting them in the hallway that leads to the girls room and it's very bland and white. I painted some 8x10 fabric canvases { on sale for $3 at Michaels } and used the same acrylic paint to do each girls handprint. I love the final product. I can look back and see the difference in each hand as they get older and bigger.

I am very happy with my $15 project. I think I might do one every year until they move out. : )
