Embrace the autumn season with a fun and engaging craft project for kids - the Handprint Corn Cob Art. This activity, perfect for family bonding, can be easily shared on social media using the hashtag #Pin410.

To create your own Handprint Corn Cob Art, gather the following materials: cardstock (preferably in a fall colour such as yellow or orange), straws, paint (yellow, orange, and possibly white), scissors, glue, a paintbrush, and your imagination.

Begin by cutting the straws into small pieces to represent the corn kernels, or keep them whole for added texture. Next, place your or your child's hand on the cardstock and paint it in colours that mimic candy corn (yellow at the bottom, orange in the middle, and white at the tip) or simply yellow and orange to simulate corn kernels. Press the painted hand onto the cardstock to create a handprint corn cob shape.

Once the handprint is dry, glue the straw pieces in rows over the handprint, arranging them neatly to mimic the cob's appearance. For an optional finishing touch, add green paper strips or paint to represent corn husks around the handprint.

This activity combines a handprint (the corn cob shape) with texture added by the straw pieces glued onto cardstock, creating a tactile fall-themed art piece ideal for kids. The handprint approach is inspired by candy corn crafts that use hand-painted prints to simulate the shape and colour of corn.

While no exact step-by-step for using straws with cardstock in a handprint corn cob was found in the search results, this method merges relevant ideas from handprint corn crafts and fall-themed materials like cardstock and straws typically used in simple kids' crafts.

With its unique and fun design, the Handprint Corn Cob Art is a perfect way to celebrate the autumn season. Whether you choose to make a single cob or a whole cornfield, this creative handprint craft is sure to bring joy to both you and your little ones. So, gather your materials and get ready to create a memorable fall masterpiece!

This Handprint Corn Cob Art looks appealing for both kids and families, making it a great addition to one's home-and-garden decorations during the autumn season.
