I love the way these Handprint Mittens turned out! Not only is it a fun craft, it also makes a cute decoration. I have them hanging next to our Elf Family decoration I made last year.
To make these adorable mittens, place a painted handprint onto a colored piece of construction paper. Repeat with the other hand. When it finishes drying, draw the outline of a mitten shape & cut it out. Then, place a cut out rectangle at the bottom of each mitten. Lastly, place glue around the edges and sprinkle with glitter. I also wrote his name with glitter on one and the year on the other.

These are so cute. I love that you can see the hands in the mittens.
I was just looking for a child's craft for Christmas that wouldn't be too hard but worth saving in the years to come. I just found it with these HandPrint mittens. I am going to make them with my kids and hang them over their stockings. Thank you for the great idea!
