Quick and easy Father’s Day crafts
You’ve still got time to get crafty for Father’s Day. Remember, your kids are really cute (most of the time), so even if dad gets handprints on a large piece of paper or a scribble on the back of a postcard, he is going to be thrilled.
I am planning on making the dad in our life a variation of handprints on a piece of paper. My friend Noodle made a terrific man bag last year with fabric painted handprints of her and her little one. Her dude rides a motorcycle and is big and burly, he can rock that manbag no question.
My man could too, but I want to make sure he uses whatever we make him so I am going for a more envelope style bag. As a musician, he is always carrying around lyrics and music so this a way for him to keep it all organised.
