Popsicle Stick & Handprint Cutout Carrots
In spirit of the upcoming spring weather and Easter holiday, today I’m sharing a fun tutorial for Popsicle Stick Handprint Carrots {perfect for the bunny lovers in your life!}
And I have to say, like I always do, this carrot themed kid craft is really SIMPLE and almost costs nothing {what parents love to hear – am I right?!}
My little boy had fun creating these Easter themed pieces and I’m sure older kids will too. Plus they double as awesome decor. If you are planning on having an Easter party or similar celebration this year – just attach string to the back for easy hanging on doors, windows and walls. Easy peasy – so get right on it!
Happy crafting, my friends!! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your child’s paper handprint and craft stick carrots with us on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see! I can’t wait to see your hard work in action! #gluedtomycrafts
