Stained Glass Hand Prints

Here's another stained glass craft that is very inexpensive to do!

Materials:

• Picture frame (with glass) large enough for your child's hand print.
• Dry erase marker
• Black puffy paint
• Stained Glass paint (in various colors)
• Tacky glue (I use this stuff for everything)
• Ribbon
• Hot glue gun and glue sticks

Directions:

• Take the cardboard backing off of the frame. I save mine to reuse for other crafts but, you're done with this one now.
• Trace your child's hand onto the glass with the dry erase marker
• Use Tacky glue to glue the glass down into the frame.
• Go over the dry erase marker with black puffy paint.  Feel free to be creative and add swiggles and other designs around the hand. Leave the hand print clear though.
• Allow the puffy paint to dry over night.  If you don't wait, it will be a disaster!
• Here's the fun part! Let your child paint this frame any way she wants to. I encouraged the children to paint the hand print one color and use various colors around it but, they didn't all share my vision :)
• Adults only: After the paint dries, attach the ribbon to the back of the frame at the top with hot glue.

This craft makes a beautiful Mother's day or Christmas gift!

Happy Crafting!
