How to Make a Handprint Ornament with Model Magic

Sharing how easy it is to create an extra special ornament for your Christmas tree and a great way to watch your baby grow (insert crying face). I can’t believe how small her hand was in September 2020 compared to the size of her hand now!

You’ll need:

+ model magic

+ rolling pin

+ parchment paper

+ circle cookie cutter

+ straw

+ thin ribbon or string

Step 1: Place model magic between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out to your desired thickness.

Step 2: Use cookie cutter to cut out a circle. Use a straw to punch a hole at the top of the circle.

Step 3: Have child press their hand into the cut out circle (you can do their foot print too)!

Step 4: Let model magic dry and then use ribbon or string to hang it on your tree. A good thing to do is to write the month & year on the back so won’t forget what year you made the ornament!

If you create a model magic handprint (or foot print) ornament, tag me in your posts @mamasfirsttracks or send them to me so I can share them in stories!
