christmas gifts….would you like this?

10

for my mother in law i was thinking of getting all my nieces and nephews together and having them hand/feet print an apron for her. she had mentioned that she wanted my baby nephew’s handprints so i thought it would be a good idea to put all of the kids on there. plus, it will give the kids some fun for a while! do you think she will like this?

2nd. i am making my mother homemade bath salts. does anyone know a way that i can dye the salts without it leaving a stain in the bathtub or coloring the water?

thank you all.
merry christmas

    1. Yes I think anyone would love a keepsake like that.

    2. Use a special salt dye:

    I can’t really help you with the salts, but I do know that the apron with all the kids handprints would be a great Christmas gift. Not only does it show that the kids care, but it shows that you love and adore her as much as the rest of the family.

    Oh she should love it , I made a shirt for my dad when my oldest daughter was a baby with her hand prints on it in paint..HE LOVED IT…any grandparent should…AND you should use Liquid FD&C or D&C Dye for the bath salts

    along with the apron handprints here is a good idea for thoes keepsake hand prints they can always be passed down

    or an easy way is to get a bowl/ plate an plaster paris an do it an put the hand print an have the child write there names on the mold

    That is a really thoughtful gift and one that she is sure to love because it will in a way be from all of her grandchildren, but I don’t have any idea how to help you with the second one. Good luck and Merry Christmas.
