Handprint & Footprint Christmas Canvas Ideas

Tis’ the season for handmade gifts and flurries of fun!!! If you are looking for some kid made keepsake ideas to gift to grandparents or other family members this holiday season – this blog post is for YOU! Today I’m sharing some inspiration on how to make some Handprint & Footprint Christmas Canvases that are perfect to either display in your own home or give away as a gift.

If you have been following my blog for awhile now, you know that I personally LOVE handprint & footprint canvas art. My son is nearly four years old and I already have a HUGE collection of these types of artwork in our home. {several of which I love displaying in my craft room} These types of keepsakes are easy to pull together and fairly inexpensive too. Walmart is my favorite place to stock up on canvases and they average from $5 to $10 depending on the size/amount in the pack.

So without further ado – here are the three canvases we recently made in honor of the Christmas season. There are no step-by-step tutorials, but I think the pictures above are pretty explanatory.

Now aren’t those fun? I just love capturing the moment in time in this art form and seeing how much he has changed throughout the years {even months!} With that being said – I hope you are “feelin’ frosty” and are now inspired to do some of your own and maybe even gift them this year. I’m sure the receiver will be “snow happy” with them!
