Handprint memory frames


These were so fun to make and are so appreciated displayed on our walls. Can’t wait to add more of them! Hmm kinda makes me want more kids!

Here's how:
1) Trace each family members’ hand on that sticky-backed foam paper you can find at any craft store. I like the kind with sticky backing but you can use non-sticky too-just keep in mind you’ll have to glue each hand together.
2) Cut out each hand
3) Find a cute frame and use scrapbook paper with fun patterns as your background.
4) Assemble the frame as normal with the scrapbook paper in the frame. Then stick the hands on top of the glass which covers the face of the frame. Display on a shelf or wall. Add ribbon to hang the frame for a unique look.
Add a new one each year to show how your family has changed.
