So without further ado – today I present to you our ice cream scoop handprint keepsake idea. Like always, this DIY gift idea is super easy to make within minutes and it’s relatively inexpensive too.

No need to scream or shout – just grab those craft supplies & get started on crafting up these adorable ice cream cone keepsakes up today! Then display proudly in your home or gift to a lucky receiver {maybe even save them for a Father’s Day gift!} Whatever you do with it – I hope you enjoy making it with your child!

Handprint Ice Cream Keepsake Canvas For Kids To Make!

Looking for a fun and easy craft idea to keep the kids busy? Look no further than this handprint ice cream keepsake canvas!

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Blank Canvas
  • Craft Paint {pick a theme, a favorite color etc.!}
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Paint Brushes
  • Baby Wipes

Directions:

  • First squirt your various shades of craft paint on a paper plate.
  • Depending on the look you like, you can either free-style the ice cream cone OR use your child’s footprint as the cone. Regardless of what direction you take, the cone is a great starting point.
  • Next paint your child’s hand and press it down on the canvas {near the ice cream cone} to give the look of ice cream.
  • Repeat for how many layers you want/the look you like.
  • Use baby wipes to remove excess paint from your child’s hands {with a quick trip to the sink as well!}
  • If desired, add other embellishments you see fit {like a cherry on top, sprinkles or even a fun dot pattern around the canvas}
  • Set aside to let it dry completely.
  • Then display your finished handprint ice cream canvas and/or gift it away proudly!
