Dad & Me Coffee Mug!

http://crafts.kaboose.com/swf/350x255_daddymug_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.

Use your fingerprints and paint to make a useful keepsake gift for Dad. This simple but adorable cup says it all!

What you’ll need:

  • White coffee mug
  • Enamel paints: black, red, blue or pink
  • Thin pointed paint brush

How to make it:

  1. Be sure that coffee mug is clean and dry.
  2. Use your thumb and red enamel paint to add the “daddy” figure on the cup. You can make the figure larger if it looks too small.
  3. Use blue paint (or pink for a girl) and pointing finger to add the child (You) on the cup.
  4. Use a thin paint brush to draw on legs and arms, connect arms between characters so that they are holding hands.
  5. Use thin paintbrush to add hair.
  6. Use thin paintbrush to write “Daddy” above the characters and “& me” below the characters.
  7. Bake mug in the oven as directed on the back of the enamel paint bottle. You can also air dry, however air drying requires many days as opposed to a few hours in a low temp oven.

Tips:

  • Acrylic paints will wash off this mug. However, if the mug will be used for decorative purposes only you may use acrylic paints and coat with acrylic sealer. Wipe clean with a damp cloth when needed.
  • Check your local dollar store for inexpensive mugs.
  • Personalize this mug even more by writing your dad’s first name on the other side.

Dad Rocks Paperweight!

http://crafts.kaboose.com/swf/dadrocks_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 dad could resist using this glittery paperweight on his desk to show off your love for him? Paint it with his favorite color or to match his office décor.

What you’ll need:

  • 1 rock heavy enough to weight down paper, about a palm size
  • Acrylic paint (We chose blue)
  • Gold glitter glue
  • Paintbrush
  • Acrylic sealer spray
  • Black marker

How to make it:

  1. Choose a rock that is about the size of your palm. It should be heavy enough to weight down a few papers and not be blown away.
  2. Wash the rock with warm, soapy water and a scrub brush; be sure to get into all the crevices. Wipe off water with a towel.
  3. After rock has completely dried, paint the entire rock with acrylic paint. Let the paint dry and then paint on a second coat.
  4. Paint the entire rock with a thin layer of glitter glue and then let dry.
  5. Use a squeezable glitter glue bottle to carefully write “DAD ROCKS” on the rock. Let dry overnight.
  6. The next day, use a black marker to outline the letters to make them stand out better.
  7. Get a grown-up to spray the entire surface of rock with acrylic sealer spray.

Tips:

  • Instead of writing the words with glitter glue, try a paint pen. They write like a pen but go on like paint. You can find them at your local craft supply store.
  • Some glitter glues dry puffy and some dry flat (like ours). Experiment with yours first if you like to see how it will turn out.
  • Instead of just one rock, paint two and put “DAD” on one and “ROCKS” on the other for a matching set.
