If you need a simple but oh-so-fun Halloween handprint art idea, try this funky-looking witch hand handprint art.
It’s a project kids will love making; we found the nails especially fun for the little ones. And the wart does evoke a giggle or two. And it’s certainly better than making a regular handprint witch, as with this hand, the kids are able to do it all on their own, even if they are younger.
This is a great project to do with your kids at home as well as in larger group settings such as a classroom.
And if you think this one is cool, be sure to also check my skeleton hand handprint art idea.

How to Make the Halloween Handprint Art Witch Hand
What you need:
- pencil
- scissors
- glue
- construction paper (green, red, and purple)
- black marker
I should note that you can also make this handprint project the “regular” way, by having the kids paint their palm with green paint and stamping it on the paper.
Step by Step Tutorial
Have your kids place their hand on green construction paper and trace it with a pencil.
Grab the scissors and carefully cut the handprint shape from the green construction paper.
Snip, snip, hooray!
Glue the handprint onto the purple (or other color) construction paper to create a colorful background for your handprint art!
Draw and outline five fabulous almond shapes on red construction paper with a black marker.
Cut out the nails.
If you are working with younger kids, especially if you want to make Halloween handprint art with toddlers, I recommend buying nail stickers for this step. It will make it easier for little kids, and if there’s one thing I can claim without a shred of doubt, it’s that kids love stickers.
Glue each nail onto the fingers of your handprint.
Now, that’s some serious nail art!
Draw finger fold lines with a thick black marker.
Just a few lines here and there will do the trick!
Every witch needs a wart or two, so have the kids draw those as well.
Tada!
If you want the handprint to pop out even more, you can outline the hand with a black marker as well.
High five for a job well done!
