Terra Cotta Handprint Jewelry Plate - Mother's Day Gift Idea

There is no need to pull out your hair! I’m sharing an adorable Handprint Plate Keepsake idea that is sure to bring a smile to the receiver!

Craft Supplies:

  • Terra Cotta Planter Plate
  • Various Craft Paints
  • Mod Podge
  • Paint Brushes
  • Baby Wipes

Directions:

  • First figure out where you want your handprint on the plate. A good tip is to buy a big enough planter plate so your child’s hand fits perfectly in the center {probably bring them along with you on your shopping trip, so you get the perfect one!}
  • Before you make our child’s handprint on the plate, be sure to do a few test runs on some plain paper. This way your child knows exactly what to do with their hand [this is especially good since this is a one-shot type project!]
  • Once you got the details down, paint your child’s hand and press in on the plate to make the handprint.
  • Remove excess paint from their hand with a few baby wipes and a trip to the sink.
  • Now we are heading towards the last few steps. Grab your remaining paint colors and paint on some embellishments to really personalize it. {see the above examples}
  • Once done decorating the plate, set it aside to let it dry completely.
  • To seal in the paint and really protect the piece for years, put a good, thick layer of Mod Podge ALL over the painted plate.
  • Then set that aside again to let it dry completely.
  • Then gift away to the lucky receiver!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
