Mothers day art
Okay, Ill admit it.
I created and helped my kids make my own Mothers Day Craft!
So this year the kids & I brainstormed and I helped the kids make myhomemade mothers day gifts.
We got the idea to make the kids 3D from the3D Dinosaur Craftwe made a couple months ago.
It will take you about30 minutes of actual doing time plus 24 hours of drying time.
The project shouldcost you less than $10.
The treasured keepsake craft you will create priceless!

Now, carefully spoon the coloredPlaster of Parisinto one of your childs handprint.
Repeat for the remaining handprints.
it’s possible for you to leave it the light grey color if you like.
I decided to make mine look springy so I tinted it yellow.
Ideally you want to mix up all youll need at once so you dont have variations in the color.
Now cover the entire project (colored handprints and all) with 1/2 1 of Plaster of Paris.
Allow it to dry about 1 hour see directions on the back of the package.
Now gently pull up on the play dough to reveal your creation.
