I’m starting off this busy Monday with a Handprint Flower Potholder Mother’s Day gift idea that is perfect for little hands to make AND gift this upcoming holiday!

Whether you are planning on making these DIY Flower Potholders for yourself OR to gift – I’m sure they will be a crowd pleaser no matter what! #gluedtomycrafts

DIY Handprint Flower Potholders – Mother’s Day Gift Idea

I personally LOVE creating keepsakes wih my Lil Man’s handprints. You have seen so many examples already on our Glued To My Crafts website.

There is just something about them that makes me melt inside, every time I look at them. They are honestly the BEST crafts we do today.

Although… it really is a true sign and a sad reminder how fast the times are going. Us mothers may complain about the sticky handprints on the walls & windows now but once they are gone we will miss them. {Can you relate?}

So friends, why not capture the “moment” right now and seal it forever, with this handprint potholder craft idea that I’m sharing with you below? It only takes a few simple supplies {one of which I picked up at my local Dollar Tree} and an hour of your time! If you plan to gift it, you could even write “thanks for growing with me” in the card.

Check out the FULL tutorial and supply list for this DIY flower potholder idea below!!!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your child’s finished potholders with handprints flowers on them, with us on our Facebook page to admire! I can’t wait to see what colors you choose for the handprint flower aspect! #gluedtomycrafts

Flower Potholder Craft Supplies:
* Cloth Potholders – one per handprint craft {Dollar Tree or through our affiliate link}
* Any Color You Like Fabric Paint {affiliate link}
* Foam Paint Brushes
* Small Paper Plate
* Cute Kid With Hands
* Baby Wipes for easy clean up

Directions:
* First squirt your fabric paint on a paper plate.
* Now go ahead and paint your child’s hand {whatever color you like} and press it, in the center of the potholder.
* Then, if you need too, use the same paint brush and a little remaining paint to fill in any missing spots that might have not filled in all the way.
* If you would like to do a flower {like I did} paint a flower stem right below the handprint.
* Add other embellishments if you like.
* Let your handprint flower covered potholders dry completely before using or gifting.
* Enjoy for years to come – I highly recommend HAND-WASHING these :-)

Below is another version of handprint flower potholders but we used an oven mitt instead!
