I love this fun little project featured in the recent issue of Country Living. Children’s hands were outlined and then embroidered to make an these adorable little keepsakes. Painted red frames pulls the project together.

    That's great — kind of a new spin on the whole silhouette trend (love silhouettes, too). In nursery school, I remember making handprints in plaster (which was poured onto a paper plate). The result was a scallop-edged disc of plaster, with an itty bitty hand pressed into it. My mom still puts them out on the coffee table ;)

    Darling idea. I think I may do these with my threee in a simple black and white. Then I can hang them on the living room wall with all of our black and white family photos!
