If you have been a long time reader of mine, you may already know how much I love making handprint artwork with my son. The canvas ideas and free printable templates I have shared on Glued To My Crafts, have been my favorite posts to share with my readers.

Anyways – with Christmas right around the corner, I’ve been wanting to make something with those sweet little hands of his again, to add to my GROWING collection. Most importantly, I really wanted something that we could in-cooperate into the holidays for years to come. So that’s exactly what inspired today’s DIY Handprint Christmas Tree Potholder kid craft idea! #gluedtomycrafts

Whether you make it for yourself or to gift away – potholders are fairly easy to find {Dollar Tree has some great ones!} and fabric paint comes in such a great range of colors too. If gifting, throw in some cooking utensils and a cookbook & you will be well on your way to creating a one-of-a-kind gift any lucky receiver would love to get!

So without further ado – today I’m going to share with you all how simple it is for YOU to make this DIY Handprint Christmas Tree Potholder with your child today. This potholder idea is also perfect to hang in the kitchen as holiday decor! Hint hint!!!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures your child’s finished creations on our Facebook page wall afterwards, so we can give you BOTH a virtual high five from a far. It seriously makes my day to hear from YOU! #gluedtomycrafts

Handprint Christmas Tree Potholder Keepsake Gift Idea

Handprint Christmas Tree Potholder

Give the gift of a handmade Christmas this year with this easy and adorable potholder craft idea! Kids will love making these for family and friends.

Craft Supplies:

  • Fabric Potholder
  • Fabric Paint {green being the most important!}
  • Paint Brushes
  • Baby Wipes
  • Paper Plate
  • Trash Bags/Newspapers
  • Cute Little Hands

Directions:

  • First lay your potholder on a flat surface, on top of some clean, trash bags or newspapers. This is to protect your work surface!
  • Pick a hand! Paint your child’s hand completely green and press it in the center of the potholder. Lift up the hand and clean off excess paint with a baby wipe.
  • Now grab your remaining paint and draw on Christmas embellishments to give it some festive life!
  • Once done, let the paint dry completely before using or storing your potholder!

{I recommend hand-washing these so they are good to go for years to come!}
