How to make

You will also need:

*A rolling pin

*A knife

*A paint brush

Step 1

Start by rolling out the air drying clay until it's 1cm thick.

 

Use an adult hand for a bigger frame or a child's for a smaller one and draw around it in the clay and cut out with a knife or clay modelling tool.

Step 2
Using a knife or a heart cookie cutter, cut from the centre of the hand shape.
Step 3
To create a message simply use alphabet stamps to imprint the clay whilst its still wet.
Step 4

Leave to air dry flat until it has changed colour to a lighter shade of grey/white.

 

Once completely dry paint with your chosen colour of craft paint.

 

Optional – After the final coat of paint has dried apply a coat of gloss varnish.

Step 5
Finally choose a picture and glue to the back of your frame.
