Here is another DIY I did for Mother's Day. Surprise mom with some familiar faces on Mother's Day with these baby masks. Chances are she'll remember the faces that she spent so many hours awake with in the middle of the night! Kids will love this project and it's really easy to do. See the instructions below! (A special thanks to the fantastic Hawaii-based photographer
Natalie Norton for the photos.) The adorable pancake toppers are from
Pretty Swell.
Step 1. Get a baby photo where the whole head is showing straight on. Blow it up in either a software program like photoshop or take them to a copy machine and enlarge them. Print them onto cardstock.
Step 2. Cut out the faces and glue it onto a wooden popsicle stick.
Step 3. Voila! Surprise mom with breakfast in bed wearing your baby face!

ReplyDeleteVery cute idea! I might print in color though the black & white kinda freaks me out. Am I the only one?
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome. I'm totally doing this! Big baby heads on sticks is so funny. hahaha My mom will love this.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the flowers in the pancake idea. It's one of those things that you would have to drop a heavy hint to the hubby about because my husband could NEVER think that kind of stuff up by himself (bless him) lol

ReplyDeleteNo, not creepy! My husband did this with my kids on Sunday. I came out of the bathroom to find all three in my bed with the pics in front of their faces. It was freaking hilarious!
