Father’s Day Ideas

Yikes! Did you realize this Sunday is Father’s Day? Are you as unprepared as I am? No worries, I’ve got you covered! Here are my favorite projects around the blogosphere for inspiration!

Let’s start with some great printables!

1. Free download/printable of a fantastic iron-on transfer from Monika at I love it all! There’s a super cute “Dad-in-training” version as well for all the dads-to-be! (hint to the sis-in-law!) She also offers it in a version you can print on a card or poster!

2. Love these vintage car printable cards from Funkytime.  So classic and charming - perfect for Dad and Grandpa! Absolutely beautiful.

3. This printable bag topper for golf tees from Inspiring Creations (at Tatertots and Jello) are perfect for a golfer dad!

4. These
printable soda tags from Whipperberry are fantastic! Add them a fun six pack of sodas like root beer or Jones sodas for even more charm!

5. These
“All About My Dad” printables from Big D & Me are absolutely perfect (found via Tatertots and Jello). What father wouldn’t treasure this filled in by his child? This is definitely on my to do list!

Looking for something to use more crafty skills on?

6. These cute Mini Toolboxes from Alpha Mom (made of Altoid tins!) can hold little fun odds and ends, candy or a gift card for dad!

7. This salt dough paperweight from Crafts by Amanda would be a perfect gift from my rock-collecting toddler!

8. Make a fun movie night gift bucket like this one from Homespun with Love!

9. Personalize tokens for dad with these great printables from eighteen25 and put them in a decorated metal container!

If food is more your thing, check out these fantastic food projects from Family Fun Magazine!

Grate Gift for Dad Brownie Cupcakes

My son and I have been working on a top secret (but simple) project for dad this year. Let’s just say it involves a small photo album, some drawings by my 3 year old artist, and some photos of him with his dad. Can’t wait to give it to him this weekend!

Whatever your plans are, hope you have a wonderful Father’s Day!!

Great ideas! (of course, I'm getting my husband a chainsaw....it's kind of a self serving gift, but I know he will love it)

Wow, somehow I was a week off here and thought it was *next* weekend. That would have been embarrassing! You found some fabulous ideas!
