{ here at Come Together Kids }
Who wouldn't want to receive a cute candle
featuring a child's own artwork?

It's an inexpensive project,
but surprisingly easy and really special.

You can use markers and a drawing like the candle above,
or paints and thumbprints like these candles we made!

| 2. Handprint Trees |
{ here at Come Together Kids }
We used fabric and the kids' handprints
to make these Cherry Blossom trees this Spring,
but you could easily do one for any season
using fabric or even paper.
You could even do all four seasons on one canvas!
And next are several great gift ideas
that were linked up to our
Homemade Gifts Party...
| 3. Canvas Photo Projects |
I'm a sucker for photo projects with kids and families
and these canvases are just awesome!
I think I know what my kids' grandparents
will be getting this year! ;)

| 4. Memory Binder |
How clever is this idea?
Create a Memory Binder that includes kids' artwork pieces
along with photos of the kids creating those masterpieces.
It would be fun to even add a project-a-month promise
to keep adding to the binder all year.

| Handprint Ornaments |
You can't go wrong with a gift of adorable ornaments
made with kids' handprints.
A great keepsake to make with your own kids
or as a group project for a class or playgroup.
