Painted Handprint Flamingo Canvas


Handprint Flamingo {Kid Canvas Craft}

Flamingo Handprint Canvas

This simple Handprint Flamingo kid craft idea is super cute AND easy for all ages to recreate. In one simple afternoon, you and your child can make it happen and have it displayed as instant Valentine’s Day decorations in your home.

Not to mention – once the season is over, it’s a great keepsake to hold onto for years to come! Just slid in a plastic box for safe keeping and bring it out over & over again as you please. You can even make this as a gift for someone else to enjoy this time of year {hint hint – think grandparents far away!}

Now that we have all those little details knocked out, I hope I have you convinced!

If this is something you want to paint with your child today, let’s grab our craft supplies and get ready to make it happen! You can find ALL the details you need to know in the full step-by-step tutorial below! There’s even a video in this very post to help you along the way as well {yay!}

Happy crafting {and gifting} my dear friends! #gluedtomycrafts

Handprint Flamingo Keepsake Canvas - Glued To My Crafts

Directions:

  • First are the handprints. You will want to paint your child’s hands pink and have them press them on the canvas. {You may want to do some test runs on regular paper} You will want the fingers facing outward, while the palms of the hands, inward. This will be the body of flamingos. The fingers are their feathers.
  • Next are the details. I painted the necks of the flamingos in a heart curve/pink and added a red heart above the heads. This was followed with an orange beak and black eyes for them. Then I painted the legs of the flamingo, orange.
  • To finish off our artwork, I added a dot pattern around the edge of the canvas. This was done by using the bottom end of my foam paint brush. I just dabbed it in paint, then on the canvas. Then of course, once done, set aside to let it dry completely.
  • To hang, you can easily hot glue some ribbon to the back. Don’t forget to add dates/ages/name on the back, so you remember when it was created!
