Handprint Gift Ideas {Roundup}

Hi friends! With Mother’s Day {and Father’s Day} just right around the corner – I figured today was the perfect time to share a roundup of ALL the handprint kid crafts on the blog, that could be easily turned into gifts within minutes.

All these ideas are fairly easy to do with children, as well as inexpensive. A little creativity and some paint is all you need! I’ve gotten in the habit of doing our handprint themed crafts on canvases so they can become home decor, but you can easily do any of these ideas on cardstock, so they can be slipped into scrapbook pages or turned into handmade cards.

So if you are planning on doing some handprint themed crafts with the kids, to gift to grandparents or a special someone these upcoming holidays – be sure to check out the links below in our Handprint Gift Idea Roundup for some inspiration! All of which are super simple but sure to make someone’s day. Happy crafting {and gifting} my friends! Now click around for that inspiration!

Head to your local pottery studio and make a one-of-a-kind piece for mom! Crafty hint – don’t add white on top of a dark pottery paint color {otherwise it won’t come out when baked} If you can, once the handprint is down – grab a small wet tissue and try to wipe some of the blue paint away to make way for Cookie Monster’s white eyes!
