crafts with kids


I've had this 3D handprint kit around for quite some time and finally used it! (Use it or Loose it is my new motto for the year, more on that later it's a blog in itself).  Love the boys hands together like this. We will look back at it when they are grown men and try to remember when their hands were this small. I only painted the edge so I couldn't mess up the prints or cover a single line in their cute little hands. The kit was just a powder gel mix that looked alot like what our preschool teacher calls "gak" when mixed with water, then a plaster powder that mixed with water as well and when you poured it over the "gak" after imprinting their hands into it, the plaster dried, the gel peeled out and walla, 3D Handprints.
