Wax paper

Side plate or hard surface

Ribbon

Craft paper

DIRECTIONS

1.Roll out the white foam clay to the desired size needed to imprint the paw print. The foam should be 1/4” to 1/2″ thick.

2.Place the foam clay onto a piece of wax paper on a small plate. Clean the animals paw and gently but firmly push the paw into the foam to imprint. Make sure to apply even pressure around the entire paw. Using the skewer make a hold at the top of the ornament.

3.The shape of the ornament may have changed slightly with the imprint pressure, so trim the shape of the ornament with scissors around the edge to fix the shape. Set aside to dry.

4.Once dry, paint the ornament gold and the inside of the paw white. Set aside to dry.

5.When the paint is dry, thread a ribbon through the hole and loop the ends through to secure.

6.Create a name tag for using craft paper and the gold sharpie, punch a hole in the end, and thread it onto one of the ends of the ribbon.

7.Knot the ends of the ribbon to create a loop for hanging.
