Father's Day Gifts

I went up to visit my sis yesterday to make Father's Day crafts. We met at Walmart to pick up our supplies- this was an adventure with four kids. I had them all in my cart and Teona had the cart with the supplies. I had many people stop and ask if they were all hers- one lady was suprised they weren't becuase "they all have the same eyes". Anywho we found a bunch of random Father's Day Crafts online and put five together for a Super Fantastic Father's Day Basket (which better be greatly appreciated- after all the work!). 

Here is each of our projects that made up these fantastic baskets:

Coke bottles with different colored candy ( I was a little bummed the Skittles and the M&M's weren't more different. I would advise doing more of a diverse candy so they all look way different but they are still cute)

Candy Bars with fun labels ( all of these ideas are from fun places online if you are interested just google them and you will be amazed )
Pop the Top cans with gift cards/ checks (for my dad we are chipping in for a golf package)
Here is the finished product

Picture Frames with a Fathers poem

Here is the finished product This one is Waynes from Teona:
This one is mine for Jeff

It was super fun to go up and craft all day but holy cow it was time consuming I got there at 10:30ish and we were finally done about 5:00. We decided we should probably just make it tradition before holidays that require creative gifts to have a craft day and just do it together. I find that is the only time I really craft is when I do something like this. The kids loved hanging out with their cousins too. :)

Wow -- you went all out! So cute! Maybe one of these years I will get around to doing something fun like that!
