This time with my baby girl is going by WAY TOO FAST! I'm trying to just enjoy every stage but they pass all too soon. I wanted a way to preserve this time with her (and, of course, my boys) so I made this
footprint ghost sign that I can pull out every
Halloween...
I just sanded a random piece of wood we had in our house. Then I painted it black. I covered each of my children's feet with white paint and put their footprints on the board. Then I took some more white paint and filled in where their arches were and touched up any other spots. After the white paint was dry, I painted on ghost faces and added "Boo!" and "2014" in orange. To preserve it, I will spray it with a paint sealer.
All-in-all a simple project that took me one afternoon to complete, but it's something I will enjoy for years to come!
