We made a hand-print wreath. My original idea was to put the kids hands in green paint on paper in the shape of a wreath, but that ended up not working so well. Onto Plan B!

I traced Joey’s hand multiple times and eventually folded a piece of construction paper in quarters. Then traced and cut the hand-print once. Joey tried cutting out his hand-prints, but they hands ended up missing some fingers. :)

Then, I cut a larger whole in a paper plate and Joey glued the hands on a paper plate.

After they finished drying, I punched two holes at the top and laced a piece of ribbon through and knotted so the wreath would hang.

I laced another piece of ribbon through the opposite way and tied a little bow. It’s a cute, simple craft. Nothing too fancy, but Joey likes to see it hanging in his room. His own little, handmade decoration.
