- 1 Scissors
- Cardstock Paper
- Washable Craft Paint
- Embellishments
Instructions
- First print out our provided printable, in color, on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You only need one print per craft.
- Next grab your red 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, right after the first "H" in the Santa saying. Make sure you wiggle each finger so the paint transfers really good to the paper.
- Now carefully lift up your child's hand from the printable and clean off the excess paint from their hand, with a baby wipe & a quick trip to the sink.
- When the handprint you just made on the paper is dry enough, it's time to start embellishing the remainder of the paper.
- Go ahead and first color in the face of the Santa design in the printable.
- Next up - cut out a small triangle hat from the red cardstock paper and glue it on top of Santa's head in the printable.
- Finish it off by cutting the ONE cotton ball in half and gluing down the two pieces to finish his hat.
- At this point in time, you can add other embellishments around the ironic saying {like some holiday stickers} to give it that custom look.
- Then display/gift away proudly your child's beautiful handprint Christmas HO HO HO keepsake piece!
