Father's Day Painted Tie Craft



Sophie made her Daddy a cute tie for Father's Day. Here's how you can make one for the special man in your life: 

You will need:
  • 11 x 16 paper
  • Paint
  • Paintbrushes
  • Ribbon 
  • Scissors
  • Tape
  • Hole Punch
Directions:
1. Let your child paint on the paper however he/she wishes.
2. Cut out a tie shape using one of your husband's ties as a pattern.
3. Cut out a small strip that measures about 2 inches high and 6 inches long to make the knot.

4. Hole punch both ends of the strip so that you have a space to weave the ribbon through.
5. Wrap the strip around the top of the tie and tape into place.  
6. Weave ribbon through holes.


What a special gift for Daddy! (Great for Granddaddy's too!)
