This bouquet of fingerprint flowers is sweet, it’s cute, and it’s colorful. It would make a great grandparent gift or a Mother’s Day gift. It would also be great just for decorating your little girl’s room.

Bouquet of Fingerprint Flowers

If you’re like me, you have a box full of mementos you’ve been saving (and adding to) as your kids grow. Those tiny little bracelets they wear on their wrist in the hospital, that little certificate with their hand and teeny footprints, and of course plenty of artwork from days gone by. Yes, I have lots of stuff. My first baby is 28 years old now, while my youngest baby is 21.

Some of the things that we as parents hold dear are crafts and artwork made with tiny fingerprints. Those tender keepsakes from a size gone by, are now only a memory for me. I love all crafts that use fingerprints, see my Fingerprint Flower Pot and Fingerprint Daddy and Me Coffee Mug for more sweet gift-giving ideas!

If your kids are still little, make sure you save lots of those sweet pieces of art to look back on and smile! There are so many things that we can’t remember from our children growing up, so having that tiny fingerprint is a great way to cherish those memories in art.
