Hey everyone!
Father's Day is just around the corner... Wanna make your dad feel special and don't know what to do? A surprise? How about creating some handmade gifts for him this time.... Remember, dads are rich :) they don't need expensive gifts from us. And I personally feel that handmade is always special.
Now some of you would say that you suck at creativity :( But that's okay... There's also a flip side to it. For those who are naturally artsy crafty, a handmade gift is a 'regular thing'. But for those who are not, it's an extra effort made which makes it even more special! So let's get going... handmade gifts for the man who always holds your hand like no one else does!
If little children are making these crafts, mommies please help (you will be rewarded on Mother's Day!)
We are making:
1. A greeting card - Dress up your dad for his special day. A card to 'suit' him. I have used white paper for the shirt, a printed paper for the coat and a few little accessories, a tie, a hankie, a pocket watch and two buttons. You may create what you like. Just get tailoring :) and then add your message and done!
2. A mouse pad - A simple and useful gift for your dad. That's a green foam sheet that has been transformed into a football ground (dads love soccer). Just use white acrylic paint and let it dry. Your mouse pad is ready. How cool is that...
3. A photo frame - That's a cute recycled project. Start with a plastic CD cover. On the front side of the cover, paste any old blocks to make the frame. Use toy alphabets for the the caption on top of the frame. You could also use a foam sheet to cut out the alphabets for the caption. The frame is ready to go! Just paste your dad's picture and it will come to life! What say....
If you decide to make any of these, do share with me. And believe me, Crafting isn't rocket science!
Would love to end this post with a Kodak moment :)
Me and my Dad (Always an inspiration)
It is a very interesting post. I liked photo frame for me. Nice to see the creator of this girl having so creative mind.
