Christmas Tree Ornament With Your Child's Fingerprint (Adorno Usando Las Huellitas de Manos De Niño)


I saw this clever idea on a Plaid Craft post on Facebook. All you have to do is add white acrylic paint to your child's finfers, and let him hold the oranament. This way he will transfer his fingerprint to the glass (or plastic). Let the paint dry, and paint details with markers or paint. I wrote the my grandson's name and the year the ornament was made.
**Esta idea la copié de un "post"en Facebook de la compañía Plaid Crafts. Solo tiene que pintar los deditos de su niño con pintura de acrílico y hacer que éste agarre el adorno, para que deje impresas sus huellitas. Luego, pinte los detalles con "markers" o con pintura. Yo le escribí el nombre de mi nieto y el año en que se hizo el adorno.










I added fake snow with glitter inside the ornament, and tied a piece of twill red ribbon to the top. ** Le añadí "nieve"y escarcha al interior del adorno y le puse una cinta roja.


It is Christmas until January 6th, here in Puerto Rico :) ** Es Navidad hasta el 6 de enero en Puerto Rico :)

  1. I love the idea of using fingerprints to make art -- so much fun! And I LOVE the idea of using three snowmen to represent the Maji! Very cool!
