Field of TOE-lips

Who needs tulips when you could have TOE-lips??

Olive and I did a little Spring painting this week.

Here's what you'll need:

1 canvas - 3 pack at Wal-Mart for under $10

green + pink (or your favorite color) paint

sponge brush

smaller paint brushes

glitter

5-6 wet paper towels

1 baby :)

Cheerios or snacks to distract said baby

I painted one foot and and did four foot prints.

Wiped the foot clean with the wet paper towels.

I added glitter to them.

Painted the second foot print and stamped it five times.

I found that I had to reapply paint after each stamping.

It worked best to use the sponge brush to paint her foot.

Warning: the wet paint will feel funny and make your baby giggle :)

I let that dry for a bit and then started adding stems with a thin brush.

 I let the stems dry and started adding leaves.

 I made the executive decision not to do hand and foot print flowers because Olive is so wiggly.  I figured tiny feet are cute and we'd all be happier if I didn't try to get hand prints from her.  She was slightly bummed that I opted not to do her hands.

 Luckily, a few more cheerios cheered her right up :)

 I'm glad to have Olive's 1st Spring/Easter documented in a

Field of TOE-lips!!
