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!"

Ahh…see that smile on my face? That’s a genuine smile. I love my family. I love the 4th of July. I love the beach. I love ice-cream. And the day this picture was taken, I was getting the combination of it all. Ahhh…that’s a real smile!
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.
