    Those are so cute! My son loves to do crafts and this is such a great idea!

  2. Tink ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 6:25 pm

    I have to look for a cute foot, but I’ll definitely try this!

  3. ellen b ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 6:26 pm

    :) How fun is that!

  4. Yuriko ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 6:34 pm

    So fun! But, honestly, I have clown feet.

  5. Mom Not Mum ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 6:48 pm

    That is soooooooooo cute. I’ll pass the idea on to friends who actually do these kind of crafty things with their kids. LOL

  6. Leslie ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 8:09 pm

    Great craft. Julia and I will have to try this.

  7. Susan Helene Gottfried ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 8:25 pm

    Those are awesome. I’ll definitely have to give them a try.

    Happy TT!

    What a cute idea….those are great!!

  13. SandyCarlson ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 10:17 pm

    This is a great idea. My husband and I are loving it because our daughter is an Oct. 29 baby and we need an activity for the party. You saved the day!

  14. Joyful Days ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 10:53 pm

    That is so clever!! And fun.

  17. Busy Dad Mumbles ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 11:39 pm

    This cool project left quite an impression on me. Most impressive. Sorry about the puns.

    This looks very fun.

  18. Jackie ~ Oct 10, 2007 at 11:40 pm

    Thanks for visiting my TT, btw.

  22. Coco ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 3:11 am

    Too cute!

    Wish I had some kid I could do this together with… maybe I should ‘kidnap’ the neighbours… hahaha.

    Happy TT :)

  23. Thorne ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 3:16 am

    very cute!

  24. Robin ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 3:39 am

  25. Damozel ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 4:13 am

    Oh my gosh, those are SO ADORABLE. I’ve never seen those before.

    I so wish my mom had done crafts with me, but she was more into bridge…your kids are really, really fortunate.

  26. Darla ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 6:41 am

    Oh, those are so CUTE!

  27. Babyamore (Trish) ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 6:51 am

    wow - sounds like fun - you are so creative !

  28. This Eclectic Life ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 6:56 am

    That is ingenious! I love it! Susie you have outdone yourself.

  29. jennifer ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 7:59 am

    That is so awesome.

  30. Hootin' Anni ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 8:26 am

    I LOVE this idea! How cool is that?!! I’m sending the directions to my daughter so she can do this with my grandsons and send ‘em to me for my own keepsake!! Wow….wonderful.

    Happy T T

  31. Head Gaggler ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 8:31 am

    Those are great. What a fun idea.

  32. louann ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 9:13 am

    This is way too cool Susie.

  33. Angela Klocke ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 9:14 am

    This is too cute - what a great idea!

  34. marcia ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 9:56 am

    Thanks for sharing and putting your best foot forward

  35. TeaMouse ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 10:35 am

    That is such a great idea!

  36. Cher ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 10:44 am

    Awww these are too cute! I’m going to have to try these with my grandbabies :D

  37. Qtpies7 ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 12:11 pm

    That is a great idea! I don’t do halloween stuff, but I love the idea of preserving the footprints! Maybe baby footprints for the christmas tree to remember forever.

  38. PinkJeweledCat ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 12:24 pm

    This is a really cute idea! I may have to try it next year. I would try it this year, but I’ve not been feeling very good as of late and I don’t want to push it getting that involved in this kind of project. I’m filing this away for sure. Ta for now dahling!

  39. Dane Bramage ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 1:04 pm

    I don’t think anyone wants to see my size 12 EEEE specters. Plus my ghosts all turn up with athletes foot. But it is a very creative idea and I think the kids might enjoy making some.

    My Thursday Thirteen #51 The old Hollywood Squares Q&A Edition is up. Stop by if you get a chance.

  40. MamaArcher ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 1:53 pm

    what a creative idea!!!
    Happy T13

  41. Lori ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 2:30 pm

    Such a neat idea and even neater to make into a TT! Very cool.

  42. mitchypoo ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 3:38 pm

    Such a cute idea, I’ll have to pass it on to a friend with little ones. Happy TT!

  43. Mama Pajama ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 3:51 pm

    What an awesome idea! I’ll have to try it. Thanks!

  44. Michelle ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 5:16 pm

    I’d never seen these before, what a terrific idea! And I love that you have a recipe for the plaster rather than having to buy plaster of paris.

  45. Sarah ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 5:38 pm

    how fun! I may need to try this with my boys! Thanks for sharing! :)

  46. Hootin' Anni ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 6:33 pm

    HI again. Dropping back to pay another visit and to let you know you have a special Halloween treat over at my place….the Friday’s issue.

    Have a pleasant evening.

  47. Christy ~ Oct 11, 2007 at 10:28 pm

    That is an excellent idea! Thank you for sharing, and in 13 steps no less.

  48. karen ~ Oct 12, 2007 at 12:27 am

    totally gonna make those- too cute!

  49. Cecily ~ Oct 12, 2007 at 2:59 am

    Those are so adorable! I have a brother in law who HATES feet and I am always looking for obnoxious foot presents to give him. I think I need to offer to babysit so I can get his kiddies to make ghost feet for him! :)

  50. Gift of Green ~ Oct 12, 2007 at 11:31 pm

    We are so making these!!! Thank you!!!!!!!

  51. Painted Maypole ~ Oct 13, 2007 at 1:23 am

    love this! must find time to do this… my daughter will love this, too!

    [...] unable to foresee the tragedies that life will throw at you, makes my skills of making a perfect ghost, a so-so marshmallow, great olive-oil or spreadable butter, so trivial. Even though I do all these [...]
