Butterflies for Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is just around the corner. Children will have fun making these unique butterflies for mom or grandma for Mother’s Day. And these will be gifts that will always be cherished.

This cute little card made from the handprints with a little poem:

This isn’t just a butterfly, as you can plainly see.
I made it with my hand, which is a part of me.
It comes with lots of love, especially to say
I hope you have a very
Happy Mother’s Day!

 Mom will love the framed butterfly footprints!

Idea from Building Food Storage and Using It 

Another cute idea is to paint a pot and add a foot-print butterfly. Then plant some flowers inside the pot.

 

I love this idea using both handprints and footprints to make butterflies and flowers.

You can custom order this from My Forever Prints.

Here is another little poem to go along with the butterfly prints.
