Looking for a fun and easy craft project to do with your kids? This painted footprints in the sand keepsake is perfect!
Make some magical memories with the little ones this weekend! Give your kids a fun and creative craft project to do by creating a keepsake that is inspired by a sunny day at the beach!
This footprints in the sand painted keepsake beach craft is a beautiful way to remember a special moment in time! I hope you recreate your own version today! Happy crafting, my friends!
Craft Supplies:
- Large Blank Canvas
- Blue Craft Paint
- Brown Craft Paint
- Ivory Craft Paint
- Foam Paint Brushes
- Small Paper Plate
- Baby Wipes
- Large Scrapbook Stickers
Directions:
- First you want to squirt ALL your colors of craft paints on the small paper plate.
- Go ahead and start painting the base of your beach scene on the canvas. Paint some sand, the water, sun etc.
- When done, set aside the painted canvas to let it dry completely.
- Once you are ready for the footprints, squirt some “ivory” colored paint on a paper plate.
- One by one, paint the bottom of your child’s foot completely and press it on the canvas where you like.
- Remove excess paint off their feet with the baby wipes and a quick trip to the tub.
- To finish off the Footprints in the Sand Canvas – add other embellishments you see fit {like drawing in more sand/water/a palm tree} and add scrapbook letter stickers to really tie it all together. I did “Tampa 2017” since that is currently where we live and the year but you are more than welcome to do whatever you like!
- Then display proudly for ALL to see!
