Today on Mom to Mom, we’re going to show you this fun DIU project that you can send a family member that’s far, far away.

- mandy williamson: - today on mom to mom, we're goin- to show you this fun diy projec- that you can send a family- member that's far, far away - - - - today we are going to mail a- hug.

This is like the perfect - way to send something to a- family member that's far, far - away to let them know that you- love them and you - - - - care about them and it just - tells them a little bit about - your child.

We love to see thos- little hand prints, how big the- were in that moment of time.- here are the things you're goin- to need, one sheet of felt, - ribbon, scissors, and a - hot glue gun.

- so all you have to do is measur- their little hands on some felt- then we're going to cut - those hands out.

And then all w- do is take the ribbon that we - have, and you're- going to measure the length of- their arm with.

So you're going- to have the kids hold - - - - the arms wide open, then you're- going to take the ribbon and- measure from palm to- palm.

Once you have that ribbon- the exact size, you're going to- attach it to the little - - - - hands that you've cut with some- hot glue.

- now you can decorate these cute- little hands however you would- like.

I like to - - - - put the names on them, maybe yo- could put their age or the year- it's however- you want to do it.

Personalize- it, write a little note and the- - - - send it off to that family- member.

- so as you can see, this is an - actual hug.

It is the size of - your child.

And you know, - you can wrap it around you.

- that's a hug that they're givin- you.

And as always- moms, if you have any great - ideas, we'd love to hear them - and you might see it on the - next mom
