DIY Fingerprint Butterfly Flower pot
Today we focused on a garden themed and with Mother’s Day right around the corner so it was time to get started on those handmade gifts that our abuelas and amas love so much!
I feel like kids get more and more excited each year to create their special abuelas and amas their gifts. One of my favorite garden themed crafts is painting a clay flower pot. This year we used paint and our fingerprints to make beautiful butterfly’s. Of course we will be making extras for mommy’s porch. These flowerpots are adorable keepsakes and will be cherished for years to come.
