Grandparents of The Littlest Apple, don’t read this post unless you want to ruin Christmas<\/em>.\u00c2\u00a0 Just kidding.\u00c2\u00a0 Seriously, though….just wait until after Christmas to read this, okay?<\/p>\n

For everyone else, I wanted to share two fabulous crafty gifts we made for The Littlest Apple’s grandparents.\u00c2\u00a0 Both crafts use handprints, and I was VERY happy with the way they turned out.<\/p>\n

Here are the super simple Handprint Wreaths.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ve seen this idea on many many blogs this season.<\/p>\n

Next up are the Snowman Ornaments.\u00c2\u00a0 Corinne posted about these on Trains, Tutus and Twizzlers<\/a>, and The Littlest Apple also brought one home that he made at Mother’s Day Out.\u00c2\u00a0 (Corinne’s are way cuter, btw!!)\u00c2\u00a0 The biggest challenge was getting The Littlest Apple’s handprint on the ornament.\u00c2\u00a0 I REALLY wanted to do this craft, but he HATES having paint on his hands.\u00c2\u00a0 Normally I wouldn’t force him to do something he didn’t want to do, but this was a little exception.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a wrestling match, I tell ya, and luckily I had The Picky Apple there to help.\u00c2\u00a0 We only managed to get two very misshapen, blobby handprints before a complete meltdown ensued.\u00c2\u00a0 How his teachers got him to cooperate at MDO is a real mystery.\u00c2\u00a0 Anyway, these ornaments may well be ornaments only a parent or grandparent could love, but I was very pleased with how they turned out.\u00c2\u00a0 I had so much fun painting the little details on the snowmen!<\/p>\n
