Christmas Countdown Day #6 – Handprint Christmas Tree

I’d actually already done up the posts for Days 6 and 7 before I left for my staycation but my blog was hacked. Fortunately, I only lost those two drafts after a day of communicating with the technical staff of the hosting company. What a relief! Well, here’s my post on how we did up our handprint Christmas tree this year!

I painted her hand and she was a lot less squirmy this year, and she enjoyed the feeling of paint on her hand for those few minutes (she couldn’t wait to get her hand washed though):

After she washed her hand, she painted in the tree trunk:

Painted in the star with gold paint:

And on her request, added gold glitter glue to decorate the tree:

I think our handprint Christmas tree turned out pretty awesome!:
