Handmade Christmas Gift From Kids

 

The kind of handmade gifts from my girls is one I LOVE to make right before Thanksgiving as we tend to have a few days off from school with conferences. So I designed this one to be a sweet mommy and me (or parent + me) craft for the holiday season. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

What you'll need to MAKE this one

CHEEKS Brand Craft Mat 

Paint Brush

High Quality Scissors

Cardboard (I used Amazon box as it's just thick enough but not too thick)

Mini Wicker Wreathe

Red Ribbon

Mod Podge 

Felt (purple, dark green, green)

Glitter Card stock 

Gold String 

Black + White photo of your child printed out on printer paper  with hands down at sides (palms to back)

Parent: Take photo of child (arms out by sides)

Palms facing back

Parent: Print photo in black + white 

Kids: Mod Pod photo to cardboard (on bottom + top of photo to seal)

Airy dry (or let dry by fireplace while monitoring/don't get too close of course!) and 

at the same time wipe clean your CHEEKs craft mat

Parents/older kids: Cut around silhouette. After cutting out around the silouette my size is 8 inch x 5.5. inches here.

Parents/older kids: Glue gun previously cut felt leaf shapes to wreathe base

Parents/Older kids: Glue gun wreathe to photo

 Parents/older kids: Fabric glue (or glue gun) on mittens, bow + glitter card stock pom pom

Display and enjoy.

Happy MAKING! Warmly, Steph
