Felt & Clothespin Handprint Christmas Trees
Handprints and Christmas trees – the PERFECT combo this time of year! Especially if you are looking for something to “keep” for years to come. Am I right?!
I just LOVE in-cooperating sweet little handprints into our crafts because the end results can easily double as sweet keepsakes, that you store away in the holiday decor boxes, to treasure for years to come!
With today’s Felt Handprint Christmas Trees, you can easily stand these up for instant decor or add string to the back for easy hanging on the tree. It’s super simple craft idea that we hope inspires YOU!
Find ALL the details you need to know, in the full tutorial below! I just know you are going to love it!
