Vintage bird prints and bright life to any home décor style. Enjoy these free downloads and prints including free Audubon Birds of America prints.

You guys, I don’t know what happened but I have become a bird lady. Okay, I do know what happened, I moved into a wooded area with a creek and suddenly I found myself buying bird seed and handing up bird feeders, and then more bird feeders, and then more bird feeders.

As the birds have come, I have begun hanging up bird prints… I guess the view wasn’t enough, I also need bird artwork. I know, my feathers are fluffed and the real me shows, this makes me crazy. Just call me the crazy bird lover. Owls, parrots, flamingos, penguins and more, birds of a feather will flock together and I am for sure hanging beside all these cute winged friends.

I find something so beautiful about vintage bird prints. Plus the bird home décor style goes incredibly well with my love for Grandmillenial Design.

Free Audubon Prints

If you are a lover of beautiful bird prints, you likely know the name John James Audubon. Audubon was was an American painter and expert on birds. His combined his love of both art and birds turned into a plan to make a complete wildlife illustration of all the bird species of North America.

The best news for bird lovers is everyone has access to free John James Audubon’s Birds of America prints. Each one of Audubon’s paintings is now available as a free high-resolution download aka free printables. You too can own a variety of beautiful bird by Mr. Audubon himself!

Search the vibrant digital library by bird name or begin flipping through the pages to find one that fits your home décor color palette. No purchases necessary.

How to Print Your Vintage Printable

If you want to print Audubon prints, consider sending to a local print shop or an online service. While it’s very easy to get your digital download saved and printed from your computer, these vintage prints will stand out the most when they are printed on quality paper and with quality coloring. You want them to look like fine art prints for collectors, no one will know they are free!

I personally send all my free Audubon prints to Staples. Learn how to print at Staples Copy Center.

How to frame Audubon prints of birds

To frame Audubon’s prints of Birds of America, first get a copy of the poster print. You can digitally download Audubon’s high-resolution images of birds, or you can pick up some resources.

These books are excellent resources for creating Audubon galleries without having to print the images yourself. They come on high quality gloss paper, as any coffee table book would.

I highly suggest you get copies of the prints and frame them yourself. The best places to find frames for Audubon Prints are…

Where to buy frames for bird art prints

Frames are easy to come by. Plus when you are downloading free bird art, then you can splurge a little bit on the print. To save even more, look for a discount code or exclusive offers at many of these sites.

If you search Google, there are many framed Audubon prints for sale. However, these same images you can download for free cost hundreds and even thousands of dollars. Saving on the print allows you to spend money on custom framing instead.

Halloween Handprint Craft Tips

Because some of the graphics will get covered by your toddler’s handprint, you have options for bringing forth things like the eyes and mouths.

In this set, we’ve given you guides where to place the eyes and mouth. Take a look at these options for how to make them pop!

Use Googly Eyes where the eyes go for a 3-D Pop (I personally like this set of wiggle eyes where there are googly eyes of different sizes and colors)
Print a second set of the Halloween handprint prints and allow your child to decorate the eyes and mouth. After the hand print dries, cut out the decorated eyes and mouth. Glue and lay on top of the dried handprint.
If creating an item with different colors, do this in two steps. For example, paint the palm one color and place on the printable sheet. Once dry, place the finger and apply to the printed sheet. This allows you to add multiple colors without the smudge.

When putting together this Halloween Arts & Crafts, use washable Tempera paint. Print on white cardstock for the best turn out.

DIY Halloween Stickers

As an extra bonus, printable Halloween stickers are also included. These are great to use with handprint art or on their own. The kids will love using them to decorate their artwork, and you’ll love how they add a special touch.

To print your stickers, fill your printer with 8.5 x 11 sticker paper and print as normal. Trim the stickers, peel and add to your art.

To use the stickers, simply print them out on sticker paper and cut them out. Then let the kids get creative!

So let’s get started. Learn the best paint for making handprint art and then download and enjoy these adorable handprint mother’s day printable cards.

What kind of paint do you use for handprint art?

When making handprint art for mother’s day, it’s important to have the right paint. Especially if you want your product to last a long time. First you must answer the question, what medium is the handprint art going on. Once you have determined if you are using wood, paper, or canvas, you can then determine the paint source. You also want to use a non-toxic, organic paint as you are applying it to your child’s hand.

The following paints can be used on the following sources…

Paper or Cardstock: A non-toxic washable tempera paint will easily stick to paper.

Canvas: Acrylic paint labelled non-toxic is safe to use.

Wood: Milk paint is made of natural ingredients making it the safest choice.

Drywall: Choose a non-toxic interior paint commonly found at Home Depot, Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams.

It is important to wash hands (feet/fingers) immediately after the print is created.

Is there a trick to getting handprint art smudge-free?

Getting the perfect handprint can be a challenge. A few tricks to help a smaller child create a handprint without smudging. Follow these five tips when creating kids’ handprint art for mom.

Tip 1: Have the right paint. When using paper, the best paint for easy clean-up is a non-toxic washable tempera paint.

Tip 2: Use distraction. If you can get an adult or older kids to help you, distract the child while you go through the motions of painting their hand and applying it to the paper. If you do not have as second helper, use an electronic or television to quickly deter their eyes.

Tip 3: Give the handprint artwork a few test runs. Print out extra copies of the mother’s day cards and practice with your little hands.

Tip 4: Use a paintbrush to evenly paint on hand and footprints. Remove excess paint before applying the child’s hand to the printable or canvas.

Tip 5: Lay down the hand very slowly and carefully. Start with laying down the pinky and slowly rolling the hand down on the paper until you hit the thumb. Once all the fingers and palm are placed, press your finger tips above the child’s handprint to ensure no part of the child’s hand is not applied to the paper. When you are ready to lift the handprint off, do this in a reverse motion. Slowly peeling the paper back from the child’s hand.

Give yourself grace. Sometimes the most adorable children’s hand prints artwork is found is in the mistakes. Then years down the road, small smudge might remind the gift receiver of a once-upon-a-time wiggly toddler.

Mother’s Day Handprint Art

The best mother’s day gifts begin with a handprint (footprint or fingerprint.) We put together an adorable Mother’s Day Cart printable set that displays these adorable sticky hands. In our printable Mother’s Day Handprint Keepsake Art set, we use all three prints.

These crafts can be made at home and are perfect for the preschool classroom. Choose the color of your choice. Guide preschoolers and younger kids as they hand their hand down. Allow them to add their name and have fun making these adorable children’s hand print and keepsake art.

Handprint Art Gift Tips

To preserve your handprint artwork for mom, consider laminating the project with an at home thermal laminator. Test a dry piece of art before laminating all your projects. It important to choose a low-heat setting.

You can also head to the Dollar Store and pick up low cost photo frames. If you don’t like the color of the picture frame, use a quick drying spay paint to change the color to match your mother’s day gift color palette.

If you need a quick drying tip on your printable art, apply thin coats of paint. Once the art is complete, place the papers to dry in an area with circulating air. You can also use a heater or hair dryer.

Printable Christmas Gift Exchange Game

This post may contain affiliate links or ads. Read my privacy policy and disclosure policy here.

September 12, 2022 by administrator Filed Under: Christmas, Crafts, DIY, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media

Put a spin on traditional gift-giving with this printable Christmas Gift Exchange Game! It’s more fun than simply wrapping up a gift and sticking someone’s name on it. With this game, you won’t know whose gift (or what’s inside it) that you could possibly end up with!

Christmas Gift Exchange Game

This game is fun for giving gifts where the group of people are similar in age. Like with a sports team, boy/girl scouts, or during a classroom party. That way, everyone will be gifting items that all participants can enjoy.

Fun Christmas Gift Fact

Speaking of gift-giving, do you know why we give our family members and friends gifts at Christmas in the first place? According to Why Christmas?, gift-giving has become a holiday tradition because the Wise men brought gifts to Jesus at birth. He received gold, frankincense, and myrrh when He was born.

Though we give and receive very different presents today, it’s all because we want to remember that Jesus is the reason for the season…and that he was given gifts too.

Getting Ready for Christmas Gift Giving

To get started with this Christmas gift exchange game, everyone should agree on a date for the event. Make it a total evening of fun and laughs with finger foods and desserts, or go all out with a potluck dinner. Gifts are best given after a full belly!

You will also need a spending limit on the gifts you plan to exchange. You wouldn’t want to bring a $10 gift and go home with an item valued at $50! Setting a budget makes the game fair for everyone. Most people will probably be okay with a $25 budget.

Items you could give for this Christmas gift exchange include:

Comfy items (Blanket, slippers, cozy socks)
A basket full of treats
Gift cards to specific stores or restaurants
Cute coffee mug that would be meaningful to anyone playing

Playing the Christmas Gift Exchange Game

When it’s time to exchange your gifts, the real fun begins! Incorporate a fun holiday party game. Print the cards on cardstock paper so they will withstand the entire game – and for future years of use, if everyone enjoys playing.

Put the cards in a stack on a table and let everyone gather around with their gift in their hands. Take turns drawing cards and following the directions.

Example directions on the printable cards for this game include:

Swap gifts with the person to your left
Swap gifts with the tallest person in the room
Swap gifts with the oldest person playing
Swap gifts with the person whose birthday is next
Swap gifts with someone wearing a sweater

The more cards you turn over and follow, the more the gifts will get scrambled up around the room. Once everyone has drawn a card (or 2 cards, 3 cards….however long you want the gift exchange game to last), it’s time to OPEN the gifts!

This game is so fun, it’s easy for it to become one of your yearly Christmas traditions!

What is Grandmillennial Style? The word Grandmillennial blends together two words, Grandmother and Millennial. It is a decor style that creates living space bringing old-school design trends with a fresh spin for the 21st century. With these Grandmillennial Decor Ideas, let’s make granny chic, grand!

Grandmillennial Style

I am coming here to confess. I have fell down a rabbit hole and this hole has lead me more time on Facebook than I care to admit. Bear with me, let me explain.

I joined a group called Grandmillennial Décor on Facebook and there was not getting out. Yes, I could easily click the “leave group” button, but I was becoming transported in time, and ideas, and the nostalgia of my grandmother (and apparently everyone else’s grandmother too!)

What is Grandmillennial style?

To quote someone, Grandmillennial is Granny Chic. It’s modern traditional. Ranging in age from mid-20s to late-30s, Grandmillennials love home decor with a traditional aesthetic. Heirlooms are precious and preserved, but not in the farmhouse style that embraces greys or the shabby chic style that loved chipped paint. Grandmillennial love loud prints and bright colors. Finishes are flawless. Living spaces are in impeccably styled.

Included in the throwback aesthetic of Grandmillennial style are rattan furniture pieces, floral wall paper, blue & white ginger jars, brightly patterned prints, floral drapes, pink roses, needlepoint, bird cages, wicker, boxwoods, scalloped lampshades, and shinny lacquer finished dressers. On display are monogramed pillows and your grandmother’s China.

How do you turn a farmhouse home into a Grandmillennial home?

Before your go throwing out all your gray paint, chipped furniture, and farmhouse style home decor, read this first.

Farmhouse decor includes rustic/chippy finishes, signs with words, barn door motifs, cotton stems and rusty metals and burlap. These are the finishes to change out. You can keep some of your neutral and gray colors, but make sure you add a pop of color too. Transform an off-white room with a happy color like a kelly green accent wall. Pull out your family heirlooms and polish them to shine. Finish chipped painted furniture with a lacquerer finish. Opposite of chipped furniture, lacquer paint has a glossy, mirror-like finish and when done by a professional, is absolutely not streaky

To continue to transform from farmhouse to grandmillenial style, buy and sell. When your budget is small, swap out pieces you no longer like with pieces you love by buying and selling on Facebook Market Place. Many people are looking to get rid of their grandmother’s antiques and others are craving the farmhouse furniture you no longer want.

Examples of Grandmillennial Style

Let’s take a look at examples of Grandmillennial decor. From Grandmillennial living rooms, Grandmillennial paint colors, Grandmillennial bedrooms, Grandmillennial furniture and more.

Remember, the most meaningful homes tell a story. Pull out those anqitues, it’s time to get granny chic!

Author note: In Grandmillennial decor, you will see Asian elements with a European interpretations. Examples of descriptions include the term chinoiserie, which comes from the French word chinois, or “Chinese.” Also recognize elements of blue & white canton china patterns, for dining china and ginger jars. These decor pieces do not come directly from Asia but are instead a European interpretation of Asian culture and decorative arts.

This Grandmillennial entry way from Randi Garrett Design is simply styled with some of my favorite ginger jars and a blue hydrangea bush. Gather a few items you love and create a simple vignette to welcome guests into your home. Find a similar detailed wreath in antique French style with laurel leaves and ribbon.

Learn how to decorate with Chinoiserie. You can take your blue and white temple jars to the next level by adding elements of flowers, feathers, and greenery like Casa Watkins Living.

Alright, let’s talk Grandmillenial decor. This Eagle Convex Accent Mirror is currently $500. Now I want you to go to Facebook marketplace and set a search to notify you when one hits the marketplace. Come give me a comment with how low you are able to pick it up. I’ve seen them for $60 – $150 in my area. (Eagle Convex mirror also seen in Southern Charm’s Patricia Altschul’s House. Wallpaper: Mind the Gap Chinese Floral.) Pair a eagle mirror with free vintage bird prints.

Grandmillennial Bathroom

The easiest place to begin your Granny Chic transformation is in the half bath. It’s a smaller space that can typically be transformed with a bird and floral wallpaper print. Pottery Barn never disappoints when it comes to home decor, look how they transformed this small half bath into a beautiful Grandmillennial bathroom with a mirror, wall sconces, and a printed wallpaper.

What to know what is right about this Grandmillenial Style bathroom? Everything! From the Serena & Lilly white rattan mirror, the bright pineapple wallpaper {Katie Kime}, the touches of brass and the lacquer pink vanity this bathroom is screaming granny chic.

Grandmillennial Living Room

Custom high end curtains can be pricey. Follow this DIY Greek Key Trim Curtains tutorial {DIY Decor MOM} and add fabric Greek key trim to white IKEA Ritva curtains for a custom look on a budget!

Using a gingham fabric focus, Lauren Deloach transformed this Grandmillenial living space and music room. Highlights include pleated lamp shades, hanging plates on the wall, large brass wall mirrors, and skirted ottomans.

Texas Designer Meredith Ellis created a beautiful Grandmillenial library celebrating pattern, texture and color from floor to ceiling. This living space includes toile drapery, furniture skirts, oil paintings, curvy shapes, and layered contrasting decor.

Take your grandmothers style and add a breath of fresh. How beautiful is this formal Grandmillenial sitting area {Rachel Solar} with a touch of modern tiger print pillows!

One take away from recreating your grandmother’s living space is bringing old-school design trends with a fresh spin for the 21st century. These spaces are not the stuffy, formal rooms you might remember from childhood. They are warm, cozy and inviting. {Better Homes & Gardens}

Grandmillennial Dining Rooms

Kerry Spears Interiors knows how to honor one’s grandmother. Take a look at this beautiful display of Grandmillennial elements included a reupholstered antique chair, a beautiful buffet with wallpaper paneling in the background.

Budget-Friendly tip on this lamp. You can spend a fortunate on a Grandmillennial lamp. Instead, find a beautiful solid color at a thrift shop and use gold Rub & Buff to paint the base. A small 30 minute weekend project.

Line a china cabinet with wall paper like Flower Mag. A cabinet filled with blue-and-white Canton pieces is complemented with a playful wallpaper. Touches of fruit and flowers allow bright colors to pop.

Tip: Learn how to wallpaper a built in bookshelf for as low as $45!

Don’t forget the amazing Bluewillowware. You can buy antiques in Facebook Marketplace, Etsy or on Ebay. Or get present day Blue Willow China pieces at Walmart and Amazon. The newer pieces are microwave and dishwashwer friendly. The patterns are pretty identical. With present day pieces, you do not run the risk of lead. If putting on display, it’s always nice to have an antique.

Accent a dining room with wallpaper panels. A set of three framed chinoiserie panels can cost 100s or even 1,000s of dollars. Create your own DIY Framed Wallpaper Panels wit this tutorial from Hunted Interior.

Grandmillennial Bedroom

KerrySpearsInteriors.com continues with the beautiful Grandmillenial home decor. Take a look at this Grandmillennial bedroom featuring antique fabric headboard, rattan night stand, antique bird print & brass swing arm wall lamps.

Try to take a bamboo dresser and has a bright lacquered just like Style Your Senses. We love the elements of this pink lacquered dresser. The pink pulls forth the blue and white chinoiserie, green leaves and gold accents.

Want to create a grand Grandmillenial aesthetic home? Perhaps by someone famous? Take a look at Southern Charm’s Patricia Altschul House featured in Architectural Digest.. We especially love this master bedroom, where an oil painting artwork is displayed above a 19th-century chinoiserie bookcase.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD.

Cool off with our list of outdoor water games for kids and adults. These wet & wild activities include over 70 fun-filled water games from the basic ones for beginners to the elite games for the serious water athlete. Get ready to splash into fun!

Some of the silliest games, are the best games. Water games are brilliant for parties, gatherings or even family entertainment. Don’t just consider them to be a game for kids. Water games are great for bringing forth the inner kid in everyone. Take a look at these outside water game ideas. These games range from the basic ones for beginners to the elite games for the serious water athlete.

What are some fun water games?

Who doesn’t love a water balloon fight? Break out the inflatables and fill up those kiddie pools, because it’s time to get wet and wild! Let’s get started with the six classic games with water. Check out our favorite outdoor water games for a cooling summertime activity.

Water Balloon Toss

Water balloon games are a must. This classic game is a great way to beat the heat and have some fun with friends. All you need is a group of people and a bunch of water balloons. Form two lines facing each other, and give the first person in each line a balloon.

On the count of three, they’ll toss the balloon to the person across from them. If the balloon pops or someone drops their water bombs, they’re out! Keep going until there’s only one person left in each line, and then the two winners will face off against each other. Now, without a doubt, this is considered fun water games at home!

Sprinkler Races

This is a great game for young kids who love to run around and get wet. The hose is a great resource. Set up a sprinkler in your yard or park, and then have the kids line up at one end. On your go, they’ll race to the other end and back again. The first player to cross the finish line is the winner! You can even make this a team relay race full of challenges and obstacles.

Water Balloon Piñata

Pop! This game is a fun twist on the classic piñata. Instead of candy, fill up a water balloon piñata with water and tie it to a tree branch or other high surface like a clothesline. Then, have the kids take turns hitting it with a stick or plastic bat until it bursts open and drenches them with water! This game is must in the great outdoor water games for families list! It’s perfect for a very hot day.

Sponge Relay Races

Split everyone into teams and line them up at the start line. At the other end of the course, place a bucket filled with water. The first person in each team will dip their sponge into the bucket, run to the other end and wring it out over the next person’s head, then pass the sponge off. In this water relay, the team that finishes first is the winner!

You can twist this game up. Make it a challenge by mixing it up with some bubbles. Use Dawn, bubble bath or Johnson no-tear baby shampoo. Instead of pouring over the next player’s head, be the first team to move the most water from one bucket to the next with a sponge toss as the mode of transportation.

Squirt Gun Tag

This game is a blast for kids of all ages. One person is “it” and has to chase down the other players and tag them with their squirt gun. Once someone is tagged, they’re out. The last person standing is the winner! If you are looking for something with younger kids, this water play is a toddler approved game.

Water Obstacle Course

Sprinklers, kiddie pools, and slip and slides can bring together one amazing obstacle course with water. Gather all the water supplies you have include buckets, spray bottles, cups, t-shirts, and spray bottles. Map out your backyard as you navigate a path from one water activity to the next. Introduce as much water as you want with running sprinklers, hoses, water guns and more. You can time this DIY water course or just make it a fun challenge to master.

Where can I play water games?
