This fun handprint Easter lily craft is also a great keepsake as it’s made from a child’s handprint. Make several of these for a pretty Easter bouquet. Be sure to visit all of our main Easter index for more fun including great crafts and recipes.
What you'll need:
- White construction paper
- Pencil
- Green and yellow chenille stems
- Scissors
- White craft glue
- Sheer white ribbon
How to make it:
- Trace child’s hand onto white construction paper.
- Use pencil to curl the fingertips.
- Wrap the paper hand until the thumb touches the pinky, glue or tape together.
- Cut yellow chenille into three equal pieces for the stamen. Twist together at the bottom and add a dab of glue. Insert into the flower “cup” and let dry.
- Place some glue on the end of a green chenille stem and insert it into the bottom of the flower cup. Let dry completely.
- Tie a piece of sheer ribbon around the flower stem and form a bow.
Tips:
- This project can be made with plain white copy paper.
- Lilies come in many colors, including peach, yellow, red and pink. Make different colored lilies for a spring project.
- Instead of yellow chenille, you can use construction paper or craft foam for the stamen.
