Fathers Day Crafts Dad Keychains For this project we used hemp, taping up one end with masking tape to make it easier to thread the beads Dad's Handprint Coffee Cup Use acrylic paint for the handprint. The paint washes off easily while wet if you make a mistake. Use paint pens to write Happy Fathers day. Spray or paint clear acrylic for durability (opt)Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Father's Day Handprint Poem We usually alternate doing this project and the footprint project each year. It is also great for Mothers Day or either parent's birthday. Father's Day Footprint PoemBetter for infants than the handprint one since it can be so difficult to get a good infant handprint. Father's Day Shirt & Tie Card Fold a 9x12 piece of construction pape in half. Cut a line at the fold 1/4 inch down and 4 1/2 inch across - Keep this strip attached at the middle. Fold strips down to create the collar and glue tie over the ends. Have children decorate the tie with paint, markers, or stickers. Picture Key Chain I got these keychains at Discount School Supply. Papa's Apron This idea was submitted by Valerie. She writes: Here is something we did for father's day but it can be for any occasion really. I got a blank craft apron at the dollar store (he picked beige but black was also available and would have been nice too) and did some handprints and stamping on it for my hubby. Attached is a photo of it. I helped him write his name with a paint brush and I wrote the occasion with a silver pen at the top (Papa day 2007), he picked colors and where to stamp things as well as stamping them of course, with my help as he wasn't even 2 at the time.
