If you are wanting to make this suncatcher craft, check your local craft store, dollar tree or head on over to Amazon for the pre-cut square tissue paper.
Personally when hanging these handprint suncatchers, I like to use double-sided tape to stick them to the window. It is so much easier to hang them, but if you don’t have any you can just make your own double-sided tape by rolling one-inch pieces of tape end to end so you end up with double-sided tape.
