Supplies needed:

  • Black cardstock
  • Acrylic paint – variety of colors
  • Large black number/letter stickers

You can make the silhouette in this craft one of two ways. One way is to lightly position the numbers/letters on first before the paint and carefully remove after the paint is dry, hoping the paper doesn’t come up with the stickers. The other way is how we did it, using fingerprints to paint all over the paper and then applying the stickers once dry. The below instructions are for this method.

We did both a Happy New Year print and 2020 for the year coming up, but it’s an easy craft to do for any new year.

I love these because the pops of paint resembles fireworks exploding behind the new year’s messages. And the gold, silver, and white one reminds of the new year’s ball drop and celebrations.

So easy and great to do while waiting for the ball to drop, at whatever time that may be. Because kids need to get to bed, and who needs to actually stay up til midnight? If you’re looking for more ideas, though, be sure to check out more of our New Year’s craft ideas at Our Kid Things!
