Reindeer Feet

I was surfing the net after Thanksgiving looking for something creative to do with Madison's hand or foot prints.  I ran across the idea of reindeer feet on someone's blog.  You basically do foot prints on a blank canvas and then paint on the antlers, eyes, use a finger print for the nose.  Then you take grosgrain ribbon and hot glue around the edges.  It sounded super easy, and it was sooo cute.  I showed Jeff, and we decided to do it for ourselves and the Grandparents.  I bought all the supplies and we did it a few weekends ago.  It wasn't that hard, but Madison absolutely hates her feet messed with, so it was a bit of an ordeal.  After the feet, we decided not to do the finger print for the nose.  So, I just painted everything else.  The Grandparents seemed to think they were really, really cute.  And, I absolutely love mine!  Here's the result...
