Fall Handprint/Fingerprint Tree Craft

I've seen these handprint trees floating around blogs and knew I wanted the girls to make their own masterpiece (for me)!!

I LOVE the way they turned out!

Izzie's tree

Mac's tree

I bought two white canvases at Michael's and painted them a similar color as our walls and painted grass at the bottom. Then, I painted the girls' arm and hands for the trunk and branches. Finally, I let them loose with fingerprinting leaves on the tree. Izzie had a very structured way of arranging her leaves and Mac needed a little guidance.

I'm so excited to have these created and to display for years to come!
