That's really cute!!

I need a good idea for a Christmas gift for the parents, but my kids would not be able to do that by themselves. Does anyone have any ideas for the 2 yr old crowd?

Some of my kids won't be able to do them either but it's still pretty cute.
I saw this too and was going to do them but haven't been able to find any canvas small enough. Didn't want to travel the 80 miles to go to craft or art stores.

I have this thing about feet. I find them gross and I would never on purpose touch other peoples feet, BUT kids feet are sweet and innocent and have never bothered me! I would think that if someone gave me a plate with my childs foot print on it, I would be saving it for decoration anyway. It's not like I would be eating out of the plate every night, kwim?

I have this same exact thing. Feet disgust me, so much so that I am NEVER without socks except to shower/swim etc. Even my own feet give me the willies! And hubby has been forced to start wearing socks at all times too! ::
Kids feet are different for me too, up until about age 3. Then they start to get sweaty and smelly, and then I can't touch them anymore. But I love to actually KISS baby toes and feet!

I'm going to do something similar, but we're doing hand prints to make a christmas tree instead of feet. I'm not nearly artistically enabled enough to be able to make the feet print ones, and my two kiddos are 1.5 so I'll be doing it mostly by myself LOL!

You'll have to post a picture after you do one!

I went to the Dollar Store tonight to get the plates for the mistletoe project. Think I'll do that with them and then have them do these canvas magnets. Those are cool! Hope I can find them at the craft store. Anyone purchased those before? Who has them?

When doing the mistletoe project what is the difference between enamil and acrylic paint?

They ARE cute but I did a couple foot print crafts last year and was surprised by the number of parents that were "turned off" by feet. I though maybe they were just kind of weird but I started asking parents in my son's Kindergarten class and my daughters dance group and found out that a lot of people have the same thoughts.
Even though it's their own child's foot, it's still feet.
One mom told me her provider did a footprint craft on a plate. Kind of like a cookie plate that you use at Christmas time or on special occasions and she was so grossed out by the thought of a foot on a plate that she just couldn't keep it.
Like I said, maybe it's just certain parents but its still something to think about.......

::That is hilarious. I had never even considered that.

That is adorable. Do you mind if I steal?

Steal away, t'wasn't my idea. Everything I do, I steal from Pinterest.
I do have to say they are coming out really adorable!
Where was Pinterest when my own kids were little??
