RUH-ROH! It's almost Mother's Day and you still don't have a gift.
Don't worry. dogIDs tested out some DIY dog crafts for your favorite (fur) mom.
DIY Dog Crafts for Mothers Day
Pawesome Blossoms
Here is what you will need to make this artwork:
- A paint canvas or paper
- Green acrylic paint
- A paint color of your choice for the flowers (also acrylic)
- A paint brush
- A sharpie or black paint
- A bowl of water
- Paper towels
For this craft, start by placing some acrylic paint on your pet's paws. If you are crafting indoors this is a two person job! One to hold the pup's paw and one to paint.
Does your pet have furry paws? You may want to trim their hair for a clearer paw print.

Press their paw onto the canvas or paper to make the flowers.

You can have as many flowers as you like on your painting.
Add green stems with your paint brush.
Once the flowers are dry, add any additional touches with a permanent marker or paint.
Ta-da! All done!
