Are you a big fan of handprint crafts like I am? I can’t resist them, they make such adorable keepsakes! I go all warm and mushy when I look back at handprint crafts my kids have made over the years and see how much their little hands have grown! This HANDPRINT CHERRY BLOSSOM TREE CRAFT is going to be going in my keepsake box for sure!
These handprint blossom trees are such a cute spring craft for kids. The hands make the structure of the tree branches and the blossom is made with gorgeous swirls of pink and white yarn.
This spring tree craft is free standing and will look so lovely sat on a shelf or windowsill. These blossom trees have such a wonderful texture and look so pretty!

How To Make A Handprint Cherry Blossom Tree Craft
1 – Fold a piece of green cardstock in half. Place your hand on top of it and draw around it. Cut it out to give you 2 hands.
2 – Glue the two hands together. We glued ours along the little fingers with the thumbs pointing outwards on either side.)
3 – Cut some lengths of light pink yarn, fushia pink yarn and white yarn. It’s fun to use a mixture of lengths.
4 – Apply a layer of glue to your handprints and stick on the yarn blossom.
5 – When the blossom is dry, up-end a brown paper cup to make the tree truck. Glue the handprint tree top onto the cup.
