christmas jim and i were living in florida and we were trying to be creative with our christmas gifts to our parents i was racking my brain one day about what to buy them when the idea came to me to paint his hands and feet to make a reindeer i bought two canvases painted a red border to make it look like a frame and then put his handprints footprints in the middle the grandmothers loved it and a new tradition was born i would paint his hands and feet for the next six years and give them to his grandmothers we made reindeer santas angels and christmas trees over the years we soon added our niece nephew and our second and third sons to the collection i would also make one for myself and my sister in law i wish i had a picture of the very first one so you could see how they have evolved over the years i love displaying them each christmas and the boys like seeing how much their hands and feet have grown i have painted them for many friends and have enjoyed creating these keepsakes for their families below you will see my latest collection i was inspired by a plate that i saw on pinterest this is my version on an 11 x14 canvas i created the garland border with four shades of green and then added white highlights at the end i then added the red berries i love how they pop against the blue isn t this the cutest little foot that you have ever seen i love baby toes here is an example without the angels i love how this turned out here are some examples of what i have done with my boys over the years every year i display them somewhere different one year i hung them on my cabinet doors another year i had them hanging on the staircase wall this is a very easy project for anyone to do and your children will love creating it with you it would be cute with just a solid color background i am sure you could use scrapbook paper somehow to make it even more interesting i hope this give you some inspiration if you decide to give it a try please send me a picture i would love to see what you come up with thanks for stopping by our southern nest posted by our southern nest at 5 34 pm 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest thursday december 8 2011 easy holiday centerpiece i did this quick and easy centerpiece last christmas and decided to do it again this year here is what you will need clear glass vases of different sizes oranges lemons limes cranberries evergreen clippings floating candles water first you will want to layer a few cranberries at the bottom of the vase i like to see the red cranberries throughout the arrangement if you do not add some to the bottom all of the cranberries will stay at the top i used two bags of cranberries for three arrangements next you will add a couple of sprigs of greenery and then the citrus fruit i alternated between the greenery and the fruit i put an orange in first to help keep some of the cranberries at the bottom and then added two limes and a lemon i then added some more sprigs of greenery an orange one lime and two lemons i like to use an odd number of lemon and limes a note about the greenery you will need very little greenery if you use too much you will not be able to see the fruit you can either clip it from your live christmas tree garland or you can use what you have in your yard if you do not have access to either you can go to home depot or lowe s and ask them for some of the clippings from their christmas trees they usually have a big bin with a pile of greenery that has been cut from the bottom of the christmas trees they have sold it is free and i will usually go a couple of times during the holidays to replenish my greenery throughout the house last you will want to fill the vase with water and top it off with a floating candle you can find the floating candle at most craft stores the arrangement will usually last 5 7 days you will notice the water will start to become murky i will drain the water when this happens and replace anything that is starting to look bad you can also do this arrangement without the candle and it is still just as pretty the best place i have found to purchase the vases is tj maxx they are super inexpensive and they will have a variety of sizes i do another version of this arrangement without water i layered another vase i purchased from tj maxx with gold ornaments and greenery if you would like to see more pictures of our home during the holidays please click here this is a link to the 2011 candlelight tour post thanks for stopping by our southern nest posted by our southern nest at 2
