Baby Hand & Footprint Bowl for Grandparents

Grandma Bowl

When my husband’s mother only had two grand babies, we made this bowl for her Christmas gift.  She loved it!  We went to a make-it-yourself pottery shop called Color Me Mine.  We designed the bowl beforehand.  My brother-in-law, claiming to be the least artsy, took the babies on a walk around the shopping center while we painted the bowl.  Then he returned so we could paint the babies’ hands and feet.

We all signed our names on the bottom of the bowl.

We left the bowl at the shop to be glazed and fired.  We went back the next week and it was finished! This is a large serving bowl, so it’s practical as well as fun!
