Over Spring Break, we had a bunch of family in town. I have been throwing the idea around to do something crafty for a family tree and decided on the following:
Nothing fancy, just took some basic canvas paints, canvases and painted some trees on each canvas. Then Since I had so much family here at the time, we each put a green fingerprint on a branch and I wrote initials and birthdays next to each 'leaf'.
I ended up making 4 of these with my Sister in Law and she took 2 back to some of our family where she lives so they can add on to them.
Here's ours:
This certainly looks like a 'Spring' tree, but by the end of this summer we should have almost ALL of our living family's fingerprints (on both sides)!!! That is an additional 23 prints!!! Nice and full :)
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
