Last Minute Father’s Day Printable – Banner and Block

Just incase you are looking for some last minute Father’s Day gifts and decor I have two fun projects that I created for the kids.  The first is a printable that we used for the Father’s Day Blocks that we made for our Kids Craft Class last Tues.  (The next class is this Tues. the 18th at 10:00 am., we will be making Road Trip Chalkboard Plaques).  This is an update on a project that I did a tutorial on a couple of years ago.



The print we used for the class is a small 3x3.

CAMP CRAFT – Craft Classes for Kids Question and Answers

We are excited to be offering (for the first time ever) Craft Classes for kids at our store in Sandy. 
Crafting at our house is a frequently a family affair.

My kids (all except the baby), know how to work with vinyl, sand, paint and even use Texturizing Cream.
We thought it would be fun this summer to offer classes that would teach these techniques to kids of all ages.

Classes will be taught on every Tues. in June and Aug.  Each class will feature a different project that will help the kids learn a different technique.  But besides that it’s just something fun to do with your kids (if they 5 or under) or a nice way to get rid of them for an hour (if they are 6 years or older) and get some errands ran… or sit in a silent car and read a book for an hour….we won’t judge.

Father's Day Freebie - Office Snack Labels

This year my husband decided to take care of his own Father's Day present a couple of weeks early.  He needed something for his mountain bike, and that was fine with me! Even though he bought his actual gift, I still want to do some things on Sunday to make him feel special and let him know how much I appreciate the kind of dad he is every day of the year.  Since we're in the middle of moving, I had three basic requirements:

1.  Cheap (he already bought his real present)
2.  Easy (like, "the kids need to be able to do most of it while I pack up the kitchen" kind of easy)
3.  Handmade (in a manly sort of way - he doesn't care about baker's twine and cute scrapbook paper)

Father’s Day Picture Blocks

This turned out to be a really fun project.  What I loved the most about it was that all three of my kids (ages 2-8) LOVED it.  Kept them entertained for at least a good twenty min.  Which during summer break is PRICELESS!

Here’s what we did. 

I have found from previous experience that there are some things that are not fun to do with kids.  So I did the prep work BY MYSELF.

I took three of our small cubed picture blocks and painted and stained them.
