This super easy to recreate Handprint Pineapple Keepsake is the PERFECT accessory to make with your child & add to your home decor today! It’s a great way to capture their handprints and have a sweet piece of art for your wall. Plus, it’s a fun activity that you can do together!
Craft Supplies:
* Large Blank White Canvas – any size you like!
* Washable Craft Paint {yellow, black and green}
* Small Paper Plate
* Foam Paint Brushes
* Baby Wipes
Directions:
* First things first, squirt your craft paint on a paper plate.
* Now grab all your paint brushes.
* Go ahead and paint the yellow portion of the pineapple, in the center of the canvas first. This will help you place the handprint crown/leaves later on. Be sure to leave plenty of room for the handprints!!!
* For the pineapple body, I did swirls of yellow and a little bit of black mixed in, to give it some texture/dimension. If you just want to do straight up yellow for this step – go for it!!!
* When done, you are ready for the handprint crown on the pineapple!
* Paint one of your child’s hands {the palm of the hand} completely green and press it on top of the yellow portion of the pineapple you just painted.
* Repeat if you like to give it more dimension.
* Clean off excess paint from the hand with baby wipes and send your child to the sink for even more washing {you really want to make sure that paint is off!}
* Add other embellishments to your handprint pineapple canvas as you see fit {I did a dotted patterned around the edge of ours.}
* Then display/gift proudly for all to see! Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share with us on Facebook as well!
