Step 1

First, click here to download and print the template; then cut out the container shape.

Step 2

Trace your hand three times onto cardstock. Cut out all the hand shapes.

Step 3

Trace the container shape onto construction paper and cut out.

Step 4

To make the container, fold the construction paper over 1½" on top. Next, roll the paper into a tube and glue the ends closed, with the fold exposed around the outside of the container. Let glue dry.
TIP: For best results when gluing, hold the ends together for at least 60 seconds.

Step 5

Roll the paper hands into a tube. Slide the bottom of the hand over a craft stick and glue edges together. Make sure to hold the glued areas together for at least 60 seconds. Repeat for all the hand flowers. Let glue dry.
TIP: Use the project image as a guide.

Step 6

Wrap a chenille pipe cleaner two times around the area where the "hand" is glued to the craft stick. With the remaining chenille pipe cleaner, bend it into a leaf shape and twist the end to keep it in place. Repeat for all the hand flowers.

Step 7

Glue a pom-pom into the "palm" of all the hand flowers. Let dry.

Step 8

Gently bend the fingers of the hand flowers back, making a soft curve. This helps the hands resemble flowers.

Step 9
Glue the ends of the craft stick to the inside of the container. Make sure to space evenly around the container for balance. Let dry.
TIP: Remember to hold the glued areas together for at least 60 seconds for best results.
