Hand Print Wreath

Reuse your children's art to make a beautiful festive wreath. 


What do you do with a collection of little green hand prints?

Well we decided we would cut them out (well at least mummy would)...

Cut the circular section out of a paper plate, then using glue fix the hand prints around the paper ring from the centre outwards leaving a gap for a second layer...

Which we added here, once it was dry we added some red pom poms for berries and...

Here we are the finished wreath. It is so beautiful that our neighbour has asked if the children could make one for their door as well.
Happy Christmas!

  4. Very cute handprint wreath. Used to make this sort of wreath back when I was a teacher and had a whole classroom of children who would each make their two handprints. Would be fun to try to do this with my two sons, though, so thanks for the inspiration.
    Hope that you will pop by my blog. I am following yours.
