Heart and Hand: Hand Stamp Heart

The Heart and Hand logo you see at the top of this page was made using hands and paint. Try it at home!
1. Find a piece of paper. You could use a t-shirt or a big leaf if you like. You just need a flat surface to make your print on.
2. Put some paint on a paper plate. Use red like we did, or choose your favourite colour. Spread it around so it covers the bottom of the plate.
3. Make two fists and dip the side of your palms in the paint.
4. Bring your fists together so your thumbs are facing up and your fingers are touching.
5. Press your hands down on your paper, T-shirt, leaf, etc.
6. Lift your hands to reveal your own unique Heart and Hand print. Make more hearts and use it as wrapping paper, give it to a friend or hang it on the fridge as a one-of-a-kind piece of art.
