Create Sponge Stamps by adding handles for small hands

Stamps are easy to make even for those who aren't very crafty, they don't take up space at all, and are easy to use. At the same time they let you explore your creativity: you can combine a number of stencils, make prints of different colour and density, and so on. You can also make brand new stencils whenever you wish!

 

Homemade Stencils for little hands...

 

Cleaning sponges - thinner the better
Laundry detergent caps
Cookie cutters to use as shape templates, or you can freehand your own shape!
Hot glue gun with several glue sticks
Sharpie marker

Pencil

Paper
Scissors

 

Choose a shape cookie cutter - with pencil trace it onto paper (to avoid getting marker on your cutter)

Then cut that image out as your template for the sponge.

Cut the sponge. This is the hardest part - pick simple images

Once the image is cut from the sponge hot glue it onto the back of a laundry cap trying to center it as much as possible. (use lots of glue) Be sure it’s totally dry before using, or it might come unglued fairly quickly!
