So hence – how this “handprint and footprint superhero” canvas keepsake was born and why we are here today!

This DIY superhero themed gift idea is heartfelt, makes a great decor piece and it has BOTH our special touches on it. Now on that note, are you ready to learn how YOU can make one with your child? Find the FULL step-by-step handprint superman tutorial below!
