11 Door Hanger Craft For Kids

11 Door Hanger Craft For Kids It’s time to decorate for spring! These door hangers are perfect for celebrating the seasons and making your home extra special.

Door hangers are a fun and easy craft for kids! All you need is some paper, scissors, and glue, and you can make your own door hanger to decorate your room.

Door hangers are a great way to add a personal touch to your child’s bedroom door. This craft is simple and can be done with items you probably already have around the house. All you need is some cardstock, scissors, and tape. Have your child choose their favorite design, cut it out, and then tape it to the door.

Handsprint Door Hanger

Here’s a fun door hanger craft for kids to make with their handprints. This is a great gift idea, especially if you have multiple kids. 

You can also use it as decoration at a birthday party or holiday celebration. All you need is some paint, construction paper, and ribbon or string to hang it up!

First, lay down some newspaper on the table so that your work area doesn’t get messy. Then let the kids do their thing! Or if you want to help them out (or make sure they don’t get too messy), give them an outline of circles in different sizes and let them fill them in with paint using their hands! Once everything dries completely, cut out the shape(s). 

Then fold over one end of each piece of paper so it looks like an accordion fold and staple closed at both ends (but leave room for folding). Tie string through each staple hole so that when you hang these up they won’t fall down immediately!

Fork Door Knocker

If you’re looking for a fun craft to make with your kids, this fork door knocker is the perfect fit. 

It’s simple and easy to do, but can be really fun!

Here’s what you need:

  • A fork
  • White paint (or any color)
  • Paintbrush (optional)

Button Door Hanger

Materials.

  • Cardboard, about 12″ x 18″ (30.48 cm x 45.72 cm)
  • Buttons of various sizes and colors

Thin cardboard or wood slats to make the hanger shape with your kids if they are old enough to hold a craft knife safely, or you can use pre-cut craft sticks in the store if you don’t feel confident making one yourselves.

Football Door Hanger

To make a football door hanger, you will need.

  • Football-shaped cookie cutter
  • Football-shaped foam sheet (optional)
  • Stencil in the shape of a football (optional)

There are several ways to make your own football door hanger. One way is to use a cookie cutter and paint it. Another way is to glue a stencil on top of a foam sheet, which you can then cut out with scissors or an Exacto knife.

Photo Frame Door Hanger

Now, use a picture of the child with a family member or friend. 

A great example of this is adding a photo of your child with their grandparent, as you can place it on the door in the morning and let them know that grandma will be there after school to pick them up.

This next idea is one of my favorites—use a picture of your child with their favorite pet! They’ll love seeing pictures of themselves and their furry friend together while they wait for you to come home from work.

You could also take a picture of your little one enjoying their favorite toy outside, or even eating some delicious food!

Pottery Barn Inspired Monogram Wreath

To make a wreath, you will need.

  • A grapevine wreath form (size depends on your preference)
  • Paint in any color(s) of your choice
  • A paintbrush or foam brush to apply the paint
  • To make an initial monogram, you will need:

A piece of cardboard approximately 2″ x 3″ in size (the larger the size of the letter, the more letters you’ll be able to create at once.) You can also use a thin piece of wood or even craft foam! The key here is that it needs to be sturdy enough not to bend when hot glue is applied to it later on. 

If using craft foam, you could also just trace around something circular with a permanent marker such as an unopened can top, and cut out that shape instead! Just remember which way is up so that when it’s time for hanging later on down below; everything lines up correctly!

Cloud Door Hanger

Materials.

  • A piece of construction paper
  • Glue, scissors, and/or a stapler to decorate your door hanger.

Instructions.

  • Cut out the shape of a cloud from the construction paper, leaving a small border at the top.
  • Once you have cut out your cloud, glue or staple it onto the door hanger and let dry before hanging on your door knob!

Painted Monster Truck Door hanger

  • Obtain a monster truck toy.
  • Paint the truck with your child’s favorite colors.
  • Using a sharpie, write the recipient’s name on the door hanger and then let it dry completely before continuing on to step 4 (this will prevent smudging).
  • Using a glue gun, glue the finished monster truck to the front of your door hanger and you have created an awesome gift for boys or girls!

Initial Monogrammed Wreath

The process for making this wreath is very similar to the one above. The difference is that you’ll want to use a burlap bag instead of brown wrapping paper. 

This will give it more dimension, and make it look even more like an actual wreath!

Cut out an initial in foam or cardboard (you can also use wood if you have access to a cutter). If your child wants to be more creative with their letters, I recommend using foam because it’s easier for them to cut themselves.

Glue the letter onto the front of the burlap bag with the hot glue gun. You may need help from your child here!

Wrap ribbon around the base of the wreath for hanging purposes (with extra ribbon left over on both sides), then glue on top of the initial using a hot glue gun again!

Baseball Wreath

Materials Needed. Craft foam in various colors (You can find this at a craft store or in the kid’s section of Walmart.)

  • ribbon, 1 yard each of two different widths (1/8″ and ½”)
  • scissors
  • tape (masking or clear)
  • craft glue
  • paint and brush(es) to match your foam colors. The paint should be washable if you plan on using this wreath over and over again!

Place the 2 pieces of foam together with the narrower piece on top. Wrap ribbon around them, starting at one end and wrapping until all four sides are covered with a pattern that matches your desired look. 

Tape securely every few inches along both sides to prevent it from sliding back while cutting! You will also want some extra pieces taped along any part where you cut through multiple layers so no edges come apart during cutting! 

Cut out any sections that need more room for decorating by placing them underneath something flat so they don’t stick up too high when done trimming those off later down here at home…

10 Minute Spring Burlap Wreath

This is a great project for anyone who wants to add a touch of spring to their home décor. This wreath can be made in about 10 minutes, using only a few supplies. 

You will need some burlap, a wire wreath frame, some scissors, and some hot glue. Start by cutting strips of burlap, and then hot gluing them to the wreath frame. 

Once the entire frame is covered, you can add some embellishments, like flowers or ribbon. Hang your wreath up and enjoy your handiwork!
