Frugal Friday Homemade Easter/Spring kid stamps

I'm a craftie ( Is that a word?) at heart. I love making things with my hands and love to do kid crafts with my son. One way to keep my son interested in crafts (He is almost 9)is to come up with messy and crazy craft ideas. Here is one frugal craft we enjoy!

Potato Stamp

large potato
kid safe knife
washable paint
some sort of paper
small Easter/Spring cookie cutters

Cut potato in half. Place cookie cutter of choice on inside of potato(white part). Cut potato around outside of cookie cutter so the cookie cutter design pops up. Ok you are ready to put paint on your design and start stamping! Check out http://lifeasmom.com/ make your own instant oatmeal idea!

  1. We love crafts around here, too!

    I had completely forgotten about potato stamps. I made them quite a bit as a kiddo. Thanks for the reminder!
