We all know how tiny and adorable little feet and hands are. So I figured I should capture these little memories before they grow to be huge!
Please share your hand and footprint crafts and keepsakes with me.
I'd love to try a few and maybe make some cute gifts for the holidays!
Connor has exact replicas of my hands - long, skinny and the exact same shape of nails!
And Daddy's large feet...will he beat Daddy's size 13 shoes?
Thanks for your help! : )

It's so much fun to look back at the size of their handprints as they get older!

ReplyDeleteThe paint your own pottery place in our town offers a free handprint tile to new moms. I haven't tried it yet, but may be headed there soon.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet pictures!! We didn't do anything major. We did do those little plaste stepping stones for outside with their handprints, but that's it. I love all the cute things they have at te pottery places. I'd do one for every holiday: ghosts from footprint, turkey from handprint, reindeer footpring, etc. So sweet!
ReplyDeleteI also love the photos of wedding rings on the baby's toes. SO CUTE! I agree with the above too - check Pinterest!
I can't take credit for this craft, but one of the NICU nurses made ink blot of my daughters feet the day she was born. She is now 2.5 and I just amazed by how tiny she was.
