How to Make a Handprint Wreath
1. First cut out the circle center of your paper plate.
Then paint it green. This is optional as most of the paper plate won’t be shown but a few small pieces may peak through.
2. Now cut out your handprints.
Because you need quite a few, you can trace and cut out one and then use that to trace the rest. You can also fold over the cardstock 4 times so that when you’re cutting you get 4 handprints.
We used 12 handprints – 6 lighter green and 6 Christmas tree colored handprints.
3. Now glue to your paper plate.
Alternate the different green handprints when gluing down.
4. Glue on your pom poms and rhinestones.
We put 3 together to make them look like holly.
5. Finally add a red ribbon bow to the front and a loop of ribbon to the back for hanging.
We know you will love the end result of this homemade wreath!
If you want to be sure that the handprints will last the test of time you could also laminate them to keep them from getting wrinkled.
