handmade hand

Here's a quick scan of a hand print handmade paper project I did in my son's first grade class on Friday. It was a lot of fun, and the kids seemed to be amazed with the paper print of their hands.

We used the 5 x 7" mold and deckle from the GoingGreen Paper Making Kit, which was the perfect size for their hands. Basically we pulled a white sheet first, then aligned a second green sheet on top it it - as you can see my aim was a little off on my son's hand! But, thankfully a quick trim will take care of that.

Full directions are available on how to make this hand print paper project, just in time for Mother's Day!
