I'm always doing little crafts with Jennings to display in her playroom or to pack away in her keepsake box. Since I only have her at home, it's much easier for me to do crafts that take a bit more time or work. Shoutout to all the moms of multiple kids, you are a rockstar.
BUTTTT, sometimes I do really simple ones that are mess free! This is one of those crafts.

THINGS YOU'LL NEED:

- LARGE ZIPPER BAG
- PAINT
- TAPE
- SCISSORS // PAPER CUTTER
It’s truly a very simple craft. I spent a bit more time (during J’s morning nap) designing the printable but that step isn’t one you’ll need to do. Below is a link to the CANVA document. All you have to do is click to edit the name and save the design! From there, you’ll print.
I’ve said this before, but i always try to have everything ready to do two of the same craft just in case something messes up with the first. This one is pretty easy and nothing should go wrong, but you never know. I recommend printing 2 per page. This also allows you to cut the paper in half and for it to fit well within the large ziplock.
Once the paper is in the ziplock bag, you’ll put a few dollops of paint on the paper. Then you’ll zip it up and try to get 99% of the air out of the bag.
Next take some painters tape and tape the bag to the surface so it can’t be pulled up.
LET BABY PAINT!
It’s THAT easy.
When finished, take the paper from the ziplock and allow time for drying. You can frame it, clip it on a garland like we do for display, or laminate it and save in their keepsake box!
I’ll likely do more of these and always continue to share the designs with you! If you have any questions about the customization process or downloading and printing, please reach out!
