More Father's Day inspiration...

We are so lucky to have the sun today -it was supposed to be more heavy raining/flooding - so hoping Father's Day will be just as nice out! Anyone planning something fancy or just a special meal? I am most likely doing a small gift and a special dessert.

Here are some ideas to Frost your special day, but don't forget about older, but still fresh!, Frosting for Father's Day here (link) 

How handsome are these chalkboard inspired labels?! Super cute! A fun, free and fast way to add a little Frosting to your Father's Day! Source and free download

Giving Dad a tool or fishing box for Father's Day? Why not fill it with goodies?! You could do homemade, cheat and do store bought... for extra credit do cookies shaped like tools (like these - link) or fish (like these - link) Source - Mrs Fields, though I don't think they carry them any more

Is Dad a griller? Make some homemade BBQ sauce! Great for favors if you are having an event! Extra Frosting tip - stamp the brush with a name or saying! Source and recipe












 

Ideas to Frost your Father's Day!

This will no doubt be a special Father's Day for us, even though it's not the first time my husband has become a dad, but it's been 11 years since his son (previous marriage) was born, so it feels all new again to him, I am sure!

...whether you do a little or a lot for the Fathers in your life, here are a few ideas to help inspire you!

Throw a dad themed breakfast (if you are my husband, this will start after noon lol).  Incorporate his favorite things or hobbies as decoration, a little will go a long way - don't over complicate it - you know our men don't realize how long it takes to craft anyway! Source

 If the traditional tie theme works for your man, why not line the edge of your table with them - looks so cool! Also love the newspaper touch for the presents! Source unknown :o(

You could also do up a fun chili station (or any station for that matter that works for his taste) for dinner using masculine serving containers like cans with the labels removed and coordinating stainless steal items.  Source

Father's Day

Here is the little guy and my man (just picked stepson up for the summer) - first thing D taught him was how to make him coffee in the hotel while he was kicking back rofl.... Hopefully life can settle down now and I can get back to my routines!

In honor of our instant family... today's post is some inspiration for frosting Father's Day!

 How cute is this project?!? She filled empty glass bottles with favorite candies, added a label with his favorite things and decorated a little carrier to match! Great gift idea for anyone!  Source

These lawnmower cupcakes are super cute! Green coconut is a great trick to create "grass" on any themed cupcake, too! Source and tutorial

You could make a cute tie banner for dad too! Source

 These ties would be adorable on dad's favorite beverage! Source and tutorial
