Once the tree is dry use finger print for the lights
Finger Print Snowmen and Reindeer
Use thumb print for body of Snowmen and Reindeer
Once dry paint the rest of the accents
Use sponge brush for snow

This guy is very easy, ours got a little messy when my daughter moved her fingers :)
Use hand print in a brown color
Once dry paint on the Reindeer face
Foot Print Tree
Use foot print in green
Once dry paint on light string and star
Once that dries use finger tip to make lights
Strand of Lights
Use multiple colors using thumb prints to make lights
Once dry connect them with black lines
My daughter insisted on doing another thumb print Reindeer as well :)
Mistletoes
This has to be my favorite project
Use the kids' feet print for the "Mistletoe"

ENJOY!

ReplyDeleteThank you very much :) Yes these would be great gifts!
DeleteI LOVE your artwork!!! However, I, too, am curious to know what kind of paint to use...finger paint, acrylic paint, etc? Thanks so much in advance for your advice!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! I just used the acrylic paints. I had some cheap ones I bought at Michaels on sale for 2 for a $1 and used those. On the canvas I do spray a finish over them just to make them last for years.
DeleteOh, everything is so cute! The Mistletoes is adorable. You are so creative. Thank you so much for sharing at A Bouquet of Talent. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. :)
