Trophy For Dad!

http://crafts.kaboose.com/swf/trophy-fathers-day-craft-photo-350x255-aformaro-115_rdax_65.jpg

You might need to use tools that require adult supervision, such as glue gun and scissors. If so, these can be replaced by textile glue and safety scissors. Make sure you ask your parents some help.

Is your dad worthy of an award? Of course he is! Make him this shiny, gold trophy for Father’s Day.

What you’ll need:

  • 2 foam coffee cups
  • 5 inch square box (or one cut to size)
  • Masking tape
  • 1 gold chenille stem
  • Gold craft paint
  • Black construction paper, cut to fit on side of box
  • White paint pen
  • Scissors
  • Paintbrush
  • White craft glue

How to make it:

  1. Turn cups upside down and trim bottom lips to make them flush. (Picture #1)
  2. Glue the bottoms of the two cups together. (Picture #2)
  3. Tape the square box shut by covering the entire box with masking tape. (Picture #3)
  4. When glue on the cups have dried, wrap a piece of masking tape around the middle where the two cups meet. (Picture #4)
  5. Cut the chenille stem in half and insert into each side of one of the cups as trophy handles. (Picture #5)
  6. Cover cups completely with masking tape. (Picture #6)
  7. Paint masking tape on both the trophy and the box gold. Let dry. (Picture #7)
  8. Write “Awarded World’s Best Dad” on the black construction paper with white paint pen. Glue to the front of the box. (Picture #8)
  9. Pipe white glue onto the bottom of the cup that does not have the chenille handles. Press onto the top of the box and let glue dry completely. (Picture #9)

Tips:

  1. Fill the trophy cup with Dad’s favorite candy.
  2. Paper cups can be used instead of foam.
  3. Use boxes from crackers, cereal bars, and convenience foods for projects like this one.

Our Family TV!

http://crafts.kaboose.com/swf/family-tv-craft-photo-350x255-aformaro-024_rdax_65.jpg

You might need to use tools that require adult supervision, such as glue gun and scissors. If so, these can be replaced by textile glue and safety scissors. Make sure you ask your parents some help.

What a great way to display your family photos! You can make your very own vintage TV to keep on a shelf, Mom or Dad’s desk, or anywhere the family thinks it will look great.

What you’ll need:

  • 1 empty cereal box
  • 3 sheets tan or brown construction paper
  • Copy of a 4×6 photo
  • 2 plastic lids from milk or juice containers
  • 1 gold chenille stem
  • Brown marker
  • Zipper sandwich bag filled with rice, beans, or sand
  • Tape
  • Glue stick
  • Scissors
  • White craft glue
  • Pen

How to make it:

  1. Place the sandwich bag filled with rice, beans, or sand inside the empty cereal box. Tape the top of the box closed.
  2. Use glue stick to completely cover the box with the brown or tan construction paper. (Picture #1) Lay the box down on the work surface.
  3. Trim your photo to have rounded edges in the corners. If you photocopied or printed your photo onto white paper, trim around the edge of your photo, leaving a small white border around the picture. Use the glue stick to attach the picture to the upper right section of the box. (Picture #2)
  4. Use white craft glue to attach the two drink lids to the left of the photo for the TV knobs. (Picture #3)
  5. Use a pen to poke two holes in the side of the box, above the photo (which will be the top of your TV). Cut the chenille stem in half and insert each half into a hole. Add a little craft glue to the hole to keep them in place. (Picture #4)
  6. Use brown marker to write your family name across the bottom, such as “Smith Family TV”.

Tips:

  1. If you prefer, you can use a color copier for your image, thought the black and white looks more vintage and matches the design of the TV.
  2. For a more futuristic looking TV, use black construction paper instead of brown, cover the lids in foil, and use silver chenille. A color photograph and white craft pen will finish off the project!
  3. To simplify this project, instead of using a cereal box, just use construction paper glued to a piece of cardboard or poster board. You can also use buttons or pennies for the knobs.
