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!
