My friend was looking for a creative and personal way to decorate her son's "big boy" room, and I really enjoy what she came up with. First, her son went crazy and finger painted the canvases in Mom's chosen colors, then they personalized his art with hand and foot prints, attractively capturing and displaying his growth.
Work in progress!
Pick up your choice of canvas and acrylic paint at any local craft or art store and get painting! I am thinking of all the fun possibilities with a larger canvas and multiple feet and hands. . .
Thanks Brittany!

I love the idea! And the colors are brilliant!
That is so cool! I've got to remember this one. Did she just use a lighter shade for the prints?
It is all one shade, the feet and hands just naturally smooshed the paint, darkening and lightening as needed. Pretty fantastic, isn't it?!?
What a cute Idea! I love it!
