Fingerprint Flower Pot

Kids will love transforming their fingerprints into a variety of bugs to adorn a fun gift for Mom or Grandma.

What You’ll Need

What You’ll Do

Use these fingerprint bugs as inspiration or create your own.

Squeeze paint colors into a tray or onto a paper plate.

Dip the pad of your finger into one paint color at a time and put a couple colored fingerprints randomly onto the terra-cotta clay pot.

Different angles make different shapes, and using your pinky finger will be smaller than your thumb, so get creative!

Don’t use too much paint, less is more.

Repeat with all of your desired fingerprint colors and let the paint dry.

Once the paint is completely dry, use a fine-tipped black permanent marker to draw legs, eyes, a mouth, antennae or anything you want to your fingerprint bugs!

Now you can fill your pot with dirt and plant something pretty. Enjoy!
