Handprints are such special memories to hold on to and this simple craft idea is easy enough that everyone, no matter their crafting level, can enjoy making it. Especially right before the big day!

It also doesn’t take too much time either – just a few supplies, some paint, and an afternoon of bonding with your little graduate or graduand – then voila! You will have yourself a graduation keepsake that is just as unique as your child! Let’s get started!

Craft Supplies:

  • Class of 2023 Printable – on our landing page
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Color Printer
  • Washable Craft Paint {any color}
  • Large Foam Paint Brush
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Baby Wipes

Directions:

  • First grab the 2023 keepsake printable listed above in the supply list.
  • Now print out the provided graduation keepsake file on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You only need ONE print per craft.
  • If desired, use a paper trimmer to trim down the edges.
  • Next grab your choice of color in craft paint, as well as your foam paint brush and paper plate.
  • Squirt the craft paint on the paper plate.
  • Pick one of your child’s hands {left or right – doesn’t matter!}
  • Paint the palm and fingers of your child’s hand completely and press it down in the center of the printable, between the THREE numbers. This will complete the 2023 look.
