Father’s Day Gift: “Hand”made Tie

"There is no tie for best Dad! You win hands down!"

Looking for a perfect Father's Day gift for your kids to give?

We have LOVED this tradition! Paint up the kids hand and handprint a tie!

I couldn't find a white tie, so I simply purchased white broadcloth cotton fabric and hand stitched it around an old tie we had.

Then we added the handprints, and after they dried, I wrote the above slogan on the tie with a sharpie.

Plus the date. It's hard to remember the hands were that small once upon a time!

If you have too many kids for one tie, or your kids have grown, consider covering it with their thumb prints.

"Thumbs Up to the Best Dad around!"

    Interestingly enough, I just saw that Michael’s sells plain white ties for you to do this with. Definitely saves time and energy! Especially if it’s last minute.
