What do you need to make the Carrot Handprint Craft?

To get started on your Easter handprint art, you’ll need some construction paper, colored cardstock, craft glue and a few simple supplies that are listed below:

• Orange construction paper can be used to represent things like pumpkins, carrots, or sunsets. You could also use colored card stock for this carrot craft. Orange paper is used to make DIY carrots for easter in this craft. 
• Green construction paper is often associated with nature and can be used to create leaves, grass, or other foliage in your art projects. Green paper is perfect for handprint crafts! 
• An orange marker is especially useful when working with construction paper since it won’t smudge or bleed through the material.
• Clear tape is useful because it doesn’t detract from the appearance of your artwork. You can also use craft glue! 
• Scissors are an essential tool for any art project involving paper or other materials that need to be cut or shaped.

How to Make DIY Carrots for Easter

Once you have all your supplies gathered, it’s time to get creative with your handprints. Here are the steps for making Carrot Easter Handprint Art:

1. Take a sheet of orange construction paper and roll into a slim cone to make a carrot-like shape. Use tape to secure the rolled paper and trim any excess orange paper so the cone has a flat top.

2. Use the orange marker and make random horizontal marks across the cone to give the carrot a bit of character.

3. Place your child’s hand on top of the green paper and trace around it using an green marker or pencil. 

4. Cut out the traced handprints. 

5. Next, cut two slits from the top of the cone, about ⅓ of the way down, one on each side. Insert the bottom of the handprint into the slits.
