Handprint Bald Eagle Keepsake

Handprint Bald Eagle Keepsake

Bald Eagle Handprint Keepsake

Today’s Handprint Eagle craft idea is easy peasy to make within minutes and it’s relatively inexpensive too! All you need is a printer, cardstock paper and washable craft paint to pull it off during the patriotic season we are currently in!

In this post, I’ve included a FREE bald eagle printable template {found below!} so all you need to do is print the file, grab some brown craft paint and have your child add ONE handprint to complete the bald eagle craft. It’s super simple to accomplish this 4th of July keepsake, so you have NO excuse NOT to do it!

So don’t “fly” away just yet my dear friends! Download the free file below and get to work on creating this adorable 4th of July handprint keepsake with your little one, before the fireworks hit the sky! It’s seriously the best way to capture those July celebrations in time!

Don’t forget – it also doubles as home decor as well, so be sure to make TWO with your little crafter so you can place one in a beautiful frame and pull it out year after year at your family BBQ’s & gatherings.

On that note, I’ll let you get to it. Happy crafting my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures before you gift it away. Come find us on Facebook or Instagram! #gluedtomycrafts

Craft Supplies:

  • Free Bald Eagle Template Printable {grab it on box.com}

The How To:

  • First print out the EAGLE template printable on white cardstock paper. You only need ONE print per keepsake.
  • At least point in time, if you choose to, go ahead and color in the beak of the printable.
  • Next up – squirt some craft paint on a paper plate.
  • Pick a hand – any hand!
  • Paint the palm and fingertips of your child’s hand completely and press it on the printable, right under the eagle’s head.. This is now the feathers/wings of the craft. Be sure to really wiggle those fingers so the paint transfers to the paper.
  • Now lift up their hand and remove excess paint with a few baby wipes & a quick trip to the sink.
  • Set aside the paper piece to allow it to dry completely.
  • When ready, add other embellishments you see fit like patriotic stickers, glitter etc. around the eagle design, to give it that Independence Day look.
  • Then display/gift away your child’s bald eagle handprint art piece proudly!
