Quick Craft: Father’s Day Feet Bookmarks

15 June 2011 19 Comments

We saw these super cute and easy footprint bookmarks over at The Seeds Network Blog. We used contact paper and wrote the children’s ages on the back. The ribbons are recycled!

Father’s Day sorted (we made extra for the grandfather’s too).

We love footprint crafts and have made plenty of thank you cards and even footprint bunting (you will have to scroll down for this one)!

That is SO CUTE!! I love it. We’ve already made a card, a beaded keyring, decorated a mug and are doing a cake and bics too (it’s his birthday on sunday as well!) but I think we’re going to HAVE to do these as well xx

A simple yet brilliant idea for a Father’s Day gift. I can imagine the fun the children had painting feet then making prints.

How fabulous & of course it does not need to be limited to Father’s Day. I’m sure there are lots of children who would love to make these! Thank you for sharing on the Resource Centre!
