Ditto Bobbie, I did the mug with pictures last year & DH was chuffed with it & will still only use that mug.
I'm thinking of either a little canvas block with photo or photo in a frame this year for DH to take to work 
Father's Day is 6 Sept according to my calendar. -------------

I got a couple of canvas blocks from the warehouse and painted them up, then dipped DD feet into some paint and put them on one and did the same with her hands on the other one - they looked great, but if you plan to do something like this do it just before bathtime as its a little messy ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

I did a stubbie holder off Snapfish last fathers day (and added a dozen beer!) and the cup for his christmas present from DS. He loves both them.
Am thinking I will do a photo in frame this year. -------------

I've pinched an idea from a friend of mine - she gets her kids to choose something that their Dad can read to them or play with with them. Of course, C is a bit young for choosing his own gift but I have taken the liberty of choosing it for him - the book Guess How Much I Love You
I was thinking of also getting a pic of Callum and DH printed onto a canvas OR a smaller photo in a frame for DH to keep at work. ------------- SJ Callum - Dec 2008 Daniel - Oct 2010 |
