Help! I need gift ideas for Father's Day!
Okay, I'm so far behind in everything that I haven't even started to come up with a Father's Day gift for Oronzo, my dad, and my father-in-law. Yes, I know it's Sunday.
I need some quick but personal gift ideas. I could do a personalized picture, like I'm doing for Baby Bug's dad, but I've done that in the past so I'm not sure if I should do it again.
Any suggestions for me?

I always try to think more in terms of time together, so I try to come up with something that my husband and daughter can do together - that always goes well. Best one was the water table!
Honey, you need to go check out some of the father's day crafts I've posted. I found some cute ideas.
T-shirt
Tempra paint
Little hands in different color paint all over the t-shirt
Sign and date at the bottom
"Happy Father's Day 2008" Boo, Baby Bug and Snuggle bug
Some favorites we have done are hand print or paitned tiles that are sealed and then put cork on the back for a trivet. Another one is hand print pillowcases. But I think the best one is hand and foot prints aprons.(I let my just walking baby walk all over the apron a few times.)
Hope that helps!
I did footprints on a shirt that said "my kids walk all over me" one year. For grandpa we did coffee mugs (there's a pottery paint place which is on the other end of town from us, but I think might be closer to you). We put the kids' handprints on the mug and let my oldest one do some decorating (my younger, we only had 2 at that time was a baby). I think it might need time to get fired and glazed, though. Not sure how long that took. Good luck!
I wish I could help, my husband sent me a link to what he wanted. . . a motorized speed boat (for the kids too of course he said)!
I did go to Kohls yesterday and I stocked up on a new pair of flip flops (the dog ate his old ones)
and some t-shirts. I am a boring practical person with the exception of the speed boat!
I suggest you to visit at Things Remembered for perfect father's day gift.
