What better way to start the weekend than to introduce you to a talented blogger?! Amy's blog, Naptime Crafters, caught my eye with her adorable projects. You'll love her ideas!
***********
Wow I'm excited to be blog swapping with Alison- she is so creative! I really can't get enough :)
I'm Amy and I blog over at naptime crafters. I'd love to have you come visit:) I'm a SHAM to my adorable little miss. During her very brief naps I love to bust out the craft supplies and get busy!! Here's our latest- little miss helped:)
Materials:
- Halloween Paper
- Black Paint
- Paint Brush
- Googly Eyes
- Tacky Glue
- Chubby little hand:)
1. Prepare your work area. I started with a big piece of orange paper in case it took more than one try: surprisingly it didn't- I seriously couldn't believe it!! Make sure you protect your work surface too
2. Paint your kiddo's fingers on one hand- try not to get the thumb since you won't need it.
3. Make 2 hand prints on your orange paper. I repainted her hand in between. Try not to worry about those little smudges- you know grandma will love them:)
4. Paint in a black spider body.
5. Let your spider dry and then cut it out- I decided on a pretty wonky shape. ¿Add some googly eyes with a bit of tacky glue. Add your spider cutout to a folded pieces of Halloween cardstock and you're done.
*If you want to stick this cutey in the mail I think it takes extra postage since it's not flat...

Her daugher is unbelievably adorable. I just want to squeeze her. Thanks for the fun and simple idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this!! I am so excited to make the spider with the kiddos!! Awesome ideas!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThose little spiders are such a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I'm going to do this and plan on doing every year until the boys are too big for me to make them do it :-) I think it will be fun to save them each year and than display them all together as they grow!
ReplyDeleteI have a 14mo. grandson. This would be a great craft to do with him. I've been thinking a lot about things to do with him that will stimulate his imagination and creativity. Thanks!
