Mistletoes Christmas Footprint Craft
Mistletoes Craft - Supplies
- Free Mistletoes Printable (scroll to bottom of page)
- White card (or thick paper)
- Green/ red paint
Mistletoes Footprint Craft - Directions
Print out the mistletoes printable onto thin white card or thick white paper.
Dip your child's feet into green paint and then press them onto the printable. The footprints need to be printed at the top of the card with a small gap between them. (see image below)
TIP - Do one foot at a time and have wipes or a small bowl of water to hand.
Once the green paint has dried add a ribbon to the top of the footprint mistletoe.
You could glue on a ribbon or a pipe cleaner in the shape of a bow, or you could paint a bow on. You could use any colour for the ribbon, but I think the red adds to the Christmas feel of the keepsake or Christmas card.

Once you have completed your mistletoe footprint craft add a name and date under the footprints.
Then you can decide whether to keep this adorable footprint keepsake for yourself or give it to someone special as a Christmas card. We did both!
If you are using it as a Christmas card you could either write your Christmas message straight onto the printable or you could glue the printable onto a larger A3 piece of folded card so you can write your message inside.
