Father’s Day Gift Ideas:

When I grow up photo:




Take a photo of the boys wearing some of “dad's” clothes; shirt tie, shoes etc. Use a photo editing software to add “when I grow up, I want to be like you). You can add a name and date to it as well. I used photoshop to add the text, but if you don't have photoshop you can use Picmonkey to add the text. 

Print desired size and frame.



“Tie”ny Key Chain:



You will need:
  •         An old tie
  •         Key ring
  •         Scissors
  •         Glue

Visit THIS LINK for a step by step tutorial.

Your wolves will be able to pass off WOLF E17-Learn to tie a tie, by making this fun key chain.

Dad’s Stache Jar: You could use this as a savings jar, or fill it up with candy or both (use a smaller jar if you are filling with candy to cut down on cost)

You will need:
  •         A jar
  •         Vinyl mustache or you could cut one out of cardstock


Homemade BBQ Sauce and Brush:



Get wooden handled paint brushes and have the boys paint or decorate them.
1 ½ c ketchup
¼ c brown sugar
¼ tsp. garlic salt
½ tsp. onion salt
2 tsp. chili powder
4 TBSP. Worcestershire sauce
Combine all ingredients in saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes. Place in small mason jar.

Shirt and Tie Candy Bar Holder (using an envelope)

You will need:
  •         Regular envelope
  •         Tie shape cut from printed paper
  •         Hershey’s Chocolate bar.
  •         Scissors
  •         Glue
    Seal the envelope then cut off one of the short ends (it doesn't have to be much just enough that the envelope will open. 
    
    Cut a slit in the middle of the envelope from the new opening down about an inch. 
     
    fold both sides down to form the shirt collar. 
    
     Make a tie using scrapbook paper, or use plain white paper and have the boys decorate it. Glue the tie under the collar then tack down the collar corners using some glue. 

    Add a cute label that says You're "Tie-rrific" Happy Father's day! Now place your Hershey's candy bar inside the shirt for a simple fun gift for dad.


Candy Tie:

You will need:
  •         Clear bags(I found the pretzel rod bags work best)
  •         Candy
  •         Scraps of scrapbook paper
  •         Label(not pictured)
     Notice in the picture that the bags are not the pretzel rod bags? Well that is because I took the pictures and then realized that no matter how many times I tried I could not make these bags work and I didn't want to take pictures again. But the directions are the same either way. 
     
      On the back of the back fold each corner to the center of the bag to form a point at the bottom and tape

Fill with candy, and add a "knot" to the top. I folded the extra bag back behind the knot and taped it down.
