These footprint tiles are super easy to make and really cheap to buy. My parents have loved getting them for gifts. Even though they don't look all that expensive, I love walking by them every time I go into my house. It reminds me of how tiny their feet were once!
This was the first tile that we did. You can buy the tiles from Home Depot for $1.34 each, so they are really cheap to do if you have washable paint around.
The first few tiles I made, we used washable paint and then put a waterproof sealer over them to keep the paint strong through the elements.
Now, we actually stamp the tiles with waterproof, washable paint and then I take a brush and paint over them with acrylic paint. Either way works, but I find that they tend to fade over time, so I usually repaint them at the beginning of every summer.
What about you? Any fun projects you do for Mother's Day? I always love new {cheap} ideas!

Flowers are a big part of many weddings. There's the quintessential bouquet for the bride, as well as those for her bridal party, boutonnieres for the groom and his groomsmen, corsages for the mothers, and many brides choose to also have decorative flowers both at the ceremony and the reception.
