Steps

A photo showing how to complete this step

Trace and cut out your hands

Use a marker to trace your hands on green paper. Try different shades of green or different hand poses to make different types of cacti. Keeping your fingers together will look more like a barrel cactus. Fingers spread wide looks more like an aloe.
