Father's Day Crafts

Happy Father's Day to all of the terrific dads out there!

Our go to guide for looking for cute father's day crafts was Pinterest. It is full of everything worth looking up! Malak is going to help me make crafts for her daddy and grampa and my little sister Shatha is going to making some crafts too! Since Malak is still a young the cutest crafts always contain footprints and handprints, after much debate this is what I decided to make.

For Grandpa we did a framed picture and it turned out adorable!
For supplies we used cardstock, pencil, markers, pencil crayons, paint, frame, bow, and Malak's cute little hand :)

If you would rather do it on a canvas instead of framing by all means go right ahead, be creative!

Another option if you don't like your writing is you can use letter stickers or stencils to make pretty letters.

After that I outlined the letters to make them nice and dark.

This step requires tons of help we got paint everywhere. I should've done it while she was sleeping or used marker to make the print. Oh well the hard part is done.

I chose to colour the letters with pencil crayon while Malak was playing, it helped to calm my nerves.

Here is the finished product put into a frame and topped with a bow. I added some glitter glue on the hand print after the paint dried just for a little bit of sparkle.

For the next craft we wanted to make a father's day card for Mohamad. Here is a cute and very simple card to make. What you'll need is paper, scissors, marker, and some cute little hands to trace.

I started out by tracing Malak's hand onto a piece of pink cardstock. I did one hand while she was sleeping and cut it out, traced it, and cut out a second one.

Here are your two cute hands. Next I outlined the outside in black and wrote I Love You on the hand I want to face the front which was the left hand. Outlining is optional, do what you like.

Here they are. For the next step you will need a second piece of cardstock that is a different colour.

On the long side of the paper cut out an inch wide strip and write This Much on it. Fold the paper accordion style as this will be the connector piece between the two hands. Glue one end to each hand.

This is the final product. I love you this much <3

Last item we did for Father's Day is that we did a mini photoshoot for Malak at home to gift to her father. We printed the pictures and framed them and gave them to dad. Here is a preview of the shoot.

Those are our cute Father's Day crafts! What did your kids make this Father's Day?
