USA Handprint Wreath

This handprint wreath is a good choice for memorial day, veteran's day or the 4th of July.  

It works equally well as a group or family project (with each person contributing a handprint or two) or a solo craft.

Materials:

  • glue, 
  • scissors,
  • red, white and blue paint or construction paper.

Instructions:

  • There are two ways to do this craft.
    • One is to trace the child's hand onto paper and cut out the prints.
    • The second is to make paint handprints on the paper and cut those out.  
       
  • Make nine handprints (3 of each colour). 
     
  • Cut out the prints and glue to form a wreath. 
      
  • Decorate as desired with flags or poppies from the templates provided or your own photos or drawings.

Templates:  

  • Close the template window after printing to return to this screen. 
       
  • Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
