What better flower arrangement to receive than one made of a bouquet of your childs handprints. This is a bouquet to cherish for a lifetime!
You’ll need:
Construction paper (variety of colors along with green)
Pencil
Green Marker
Tape or Glue
This is sooooo simple and the kids love making them and you’ll love receiving and showing these “flowers” off to everyone!
Simply have your child trace their hand onto the construction paper using pencil, or if they’re too little to do the tracing, you can do that for them.
Do a variety of colors and however many you’d like to use for the bouquet.
Cut out the handprints and at the ‘wrist’ section roll the handprint up so that it forms a ‘flower’ and either tape or glue at the wrist to keep it in place.
Take a green piece of construction paper and begin to roll it diagonally tightly to form a ‘stem’ and tape or glue to keep in place.
Make a few leaves using the green construction paper, and using the green marker draw ‘veins’ on the leaves to make them life like.
Cut out the leaves and glue or tape to the ‘stem’. Glue or tape the “handprint” flowers to the top of the ‘stem’ and insert into a vase or you can use curling ribbon to tie them and give as a bouquet.
Simple and unique!!! Great for yourself or grandparents, aunts & uncles, they all will love this gift, and the kids will have a blast making it!
