Of my life's gathered treasures, one of the dearest are a set
of handprints of my children from when they were young. Matted and framed,
always graced upon a wall, there for me to reflect and remember a moment. A
time when the clock could never be turned back, captured forever. Happy
memories. From a Fall craft, author unknown, simple painted handprints. Copy
this poem, and make a set of prints of your own to cherish. And love forever.
This is what you will need-
Handprint Poem
Acrylic Paint
Paint Brush
Sharpie Marker
Paper Towels

I had this poem printed on card stock paper from a
local printer. It measures 11” x 14”.
You can use any water based paint you like for the handprints. Nice to use
paint from existing walls to coordinate with the decor or select a color you love. I used sample pots of paint
from Serena and Lily. You can purchase them here…Link
Start with painting one of your child’s palm with paint.
Press hand down onto the space of the poem.
Repeat with the second hand.
Let dry.
With a sharpie marker, hand print name and date on the
bottom edge of hand.
