Monday Funday: 3 Easy Gift Ideas for Dads
By Candie Cooper
It's almost June and you know what that means! Father's
Day gift crafting time. Here are a few easy ideas that you can craft
up for dad. First up, memo clips for the organized dad.
Binder clips come in all colors and sizes. Cut photos
and scrap book paper to fit the rectangle area on the clip. I used
a color copier to reduce the size of these photos.
Use Mod Podge in the gloss formula to seal images to clips.
Take care to put the face in the center so when the silver piece
is up, you can still see the face. Make mini, medium and big sizes
of clips with all different photos for a great set.
Next up, a luggage tag for the dad that travels!
Trace the luggage tag onto fun paper and cut out. Use
letter stickers to spell out D-A-D on extra paper.
Mod Podge the papers to the tag and leave to dry. For
an extra protective layer, seal with gloss acrylic varnish.
Lastly, a gift for sporty dad. It's tee time!
Pick up a bag of tees and poke into the side of a box
to secure while painting. I used FolkArt paints for these because
it's a thicker and requires only one coat.
Kids will have fun painting stripes, dots and simple brushes
of paint (see tee on right). Once paint has dried, seal the tees
with a spray varnish.
Don't forget the tie-rack idea from last year too!
