Father’s Day gift ideas with Roberta

Hey everyone! Father’s Day is tomorrow, and I don’t know about you guys, but I’m pretty excited. My dad is amazing. He and I love to hang out (when he’s not traveling on business). I’m even named after him! (He’s Robert, I’m Roberta). So I wanted to come up with a few extra-special things to make my dad. Here’s what I’m going to give him tomorrow:

 

Picture Frame

This was pretty easy to make. I just got some wooden sticks, craft glue, paint, and a picture of me (the other side is empty for when my new brother or sister arrives – their picture can go in there).

First, I glued four sticks together to make one square frame. Then I did the same for the other frame.

I painted the frames.

I used construction paper on the back to attach the two frames together (I just glued the construction paper rectangle to each square).

Then, when everything was dry, I put in the picture of me. Aren’t I cute?

 

 

Dad Coupons

I made my dad a few coupons to use – but I decided to cut them into fun shapes, instead of just making a book. I might even make a few more and put them into a jar, so he can pull them out randomly and see what chore I get to do!

 

 

Craft Stick Coaster

This is a super-easy craft. You just get a piece of felt and glue seven craft sticks horizontally, and a craft stick on the top and bottom of the seven sticks. Then you can paint the sticks however you like! Trim away any extra felt and voila – instant coaster!

 

Whatever you do for your dad, have a very happy Father’s Day!

      Awesome craft ideas, Roberta! I already made my dad a craft, and he loves it. I even pranked him with a fake rubber snake while he was sleeping in his bed. It was so funny. :lol: I know it’s kind of early to say this, but happy Father’s Day! :mrgreen: ~Chicago Made☠

      • krystal says:

        I realy like the first one!!! Great ideas Roberta!! I know Im kinda late since Fathers Day is tomorrow, but I still have no idea what to make him!!! :O I dont really think he wants any of those Roberta. He wants a drill, but I cant afford that!!! Sigh… :( ~KK♥

        • unet101 says:

          Yeah I’m not entirely sure what to get my dad for Fathers day. But those are some great ideas! Oh and krystal, I think your dad will love anything you give him. I mean he’s your father. He should love anything that you give or make for him. If he doesn’t like it, then that’s just sad. But I’m 99% sure that he’ll love whatever you get him.

          hey! i made my dad something this year! but its none of these. I made him a T-shirt. i got some paints, a plain white shirt, and i put the paint on my hands and i put my hands on the shirt. then i wrote on it in paint…”Best Dad Ever” that is a simple awesome gift!

        • penguinlover505 says:

          The best father’s day gift is 2 buy him a card or make him a card dats way I did 4 dad and he laughed at it and he loved it or get him a gift card 2 his favorite store or buy him sports stuff but a card is the best way 2 go it will show how much u love ur dad!!! Happy Father’s Day good luck!!!

    • the noise says:

      Awesome! I like your craft ideas, Roberta! They’re all so cool! :) I made my dad something similar to the 1st craft you (Roberta) show, and my dad loved it. I then told him “Happy Father’s Day!” and I gave him a hug (I’m not a hugger, but I did hug my dad anyway). – ǝsıou ǝɥʇ ןןıʞ ۞۞۞

      • Chicago Made says:

        @the noise – I’m not a big hugger either, but I do it. Speaking of a great bear hug, I gave one to my dad too. :lol: ~Chicago Made☠

        • sarahandlacey says:

          Mabe it’s because I’m a girl, but I tend to hug people a lot! My friends always huging me! I like her hugs! I didn’t make my dad anything! I bought him something! So I geuss it’s less special, but hey I think he’s still going to like it! Your friend sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:

    • Emeraldleaf says:

      Hey guys! I really liked the idea of the first craft, the picture frame. It was simple and cute. By the way, did you guys notice that Roberta said, ‘for when my new brother and sister arrives’? She said ‘and’! Maybe this is foreshadowing that Roberta’s mom will have twins! That would be surprising. :D Anyone agree? —*Emeraldleaf*— :mrgreen:
