We painted a finger on each child and then pressed it to the glass candle holder. I LOVE the stair step-ness that my kid's are at! Then I painted the noses, eyes and buttons on. Louie did the arms with a brown Sharpie. Then I Modge Podged around the base and sprinkled Epsom salt over the Modge Podge. It was kind-of sparse looking, so after it dried I did another coat. The texture is awesome! We added the candle and this cute little poem:
Little Snowmen, One, Two, Three
Made by our fingers
As you can see
When you light the candle
It will burn so bright
To remind you that we Love you,
Day and Night!
What a fanstastic idea!!! So personal!! :)
ReplyDeleteI wish I had been more sentimental when my Doodle was younger.
So precious! I love it.
