Baby Idris just recently took his first steps so I thought it would be fun to celebrate that with some modern, DIY, 'baby steps' artwork!

To watch the video where this artwork is featured, click here: 'Babyproofed & Decorated Family Room Before & After'

• a baby
• large canvas
• non toxic acrylic paint
• paper plates
• paint brush
• water

1. Squirt the colors you want to use in separate paper plates.
2. Dip the little walker's feet into a paint color and assist their steps across the canvas. Don't let them put too much weight on the canvas.
3. Repeat as much as you like, wiping off the feet with paper towels or on the drop cloth between colors. Let dry.
4. If you want to do a wash over the finished painting to tone down he stark white canvas, water down a charcoal colored paint and use your paint brush to sweep the wash over the completed baby steps!
5. Hang up your new custom piece of artwork!
