Five Father’s day DIY gifts. These Father’s day crafts are a wonderful way to show your dad how much you care. You can of course also make a gift for somebody else who is special to you. What ever you make and who ever you give your art work to, make sure it comes from the heart…

#1 Photo Cube

This is a very personal gift you can make for you Dad. Use photo’s that have great memories and are very special to you and your dad. Holiday pictures or special occassions and things like that. In this tutorial we show you how to make this Photo Cube and what kind of materials you need for the project. Take your time making this piece of art, it does require some drying time. Hope you enjoy making this super project, I am sure that your dad will love it!

 

 

#2 Hearts made of wood, nails and wool

This is a really cool project to make. You will need some wood, a hammer, nails and some wool. This tutorial will show you an easy way to make.  Here is a list of items you will need to make your craft. You can vary the size of the wood and the sort and colours of wool that you use. Instead of a heart shape you could also design a letter that stands for your dad’s name. Or if you are feeling ambitious you can spell out a whole word. Make a great unique gift!

 

 

#3 Draw a heart

You can either draw this picture yourself or use the free downloadable template. Make your own colour combination and stick it on some colourful paper to make it in to a card.
