Tissue Paper Handprint Project

I wanted to have something to always remember the girls small hands by so I used flour, water and salt and mixed them together to create a doh. I had the girls press their handprints into the dough hard. Then I cut around their impression with a knife. I baked it in the oven to make them hard. Once they were baked and cooled off I put glue all over the hands and layered tissue paper on top to create a hard modgepodge surface. Once they dried I could hold their little hands in mine. Now I will always have their hands to hold.
