There are ton of hand print crafts that we can find on the net, but many only serves as cute displays or plain wall decorations- which is okay, but a realistic mom like me, I was indeed looking for some kind of crafts that could not just preserve her cute tiny hand prints, but are also useful and simple to make. Well, is that too much?:P
For asking too much, in the end I have to come with my own ideas!
p/s: You only need a pair of the traced hand print for this craft, but I had to make 2 pairs of the prints since Aisyah loved it so much, that I couldnt get any nearer to the first pair anymore. She would pick up her toys and hi-5 me with her foam hands :) Cuteness~I've traced her hand prints on a foam paper, glued it to the 'photo-magnets', cut it out to the exact size and shape and...
Voila!
An adorable custom made fridge-magnet that is not only simple, but also useful to a mom like me :) Boleh letak notes "things-to-buy" list or postcard from friends, or even her own pictures.
For the time being, Id like to leave it simple and plain. But you could add some cute decorations or even some stencils, poems etc on the hand-prints..I have created another blog where I will put all my crafty things there (in my attempts to be an artsy mommy), though it is yet to be updated. I really love to share some artsy ideas with crafty mommies n brilliant wives out there :)

this is such a great idea..lagi berguna dari simpan atas console table sampai berabuk..haha..
I pon tgh pikir nak preserve my son's hand print, the initial idea to use yg clay tu..but yr fridge magnet idea is more interesting..in years to come,as the son grows up boleh tgk tangan budak kecik tu dah jadi tangan bapak2..huhu..
eh I visited your crafty blog, ingat nak tinggal komen, but you don't give option for name n URL, I don't have openID and the Google account is kinda private..nak tanya playdoh tu lama2 berkulat or rosak ke tak?
ye ker? tq tq..hehe.tu ler, sekarang tangan diorang kan tengah comel, so instead of dia conteng tapak tangan penuh satu buku note :P saya decided to do something.
yang blog satu lagi tuh baru tengah update, nanti saya ubah. tq sebab bagitau, tak perasan pulak.
Playdoh tuh kalau simpan dalam air-tight container memang tahan. Mungkin sebab kita letak garam banyak kut. Ni dah dalam 2minggu, elok lg, dah tuh kalau main, sebab lembut sikit dan senang bentuk, tgn tak kotor dan clay tak masuk dalam kuku macam playdoh biasa.
Sebenarnya saya selalu baca blog homemaker jugak, nanti saya direct link kan yer :)
