DIY for dads and daughters 1

Our friends at MakeItRuby.com have been busy putting up new activities for dads and daughters. What we like best about their material is that all ideas are aimed at encouraging dads with daughters to get into simple do-it-yourself projects for at home arts and crafts. Best of all - every project focuses on the 3 R's of reusable, renewable and re-purposed materials. The projects are also easy on dad's wallet ... you'll probably find most of the basic materials in your house anyway.

How about you give this one a go: "Sweet Puppy Keepsake"

Here's what you need: empty tissue box, puppy photos, scissors, all-purpose tacky glue, sticky letters, stickers, silk flowers

Step by step
1. Repurpose a tissue box to make this sweet puppy keepsake. Print 4 photos & glue one on each side of the box.

2. Decorate each side with words & themed stickers.

3. Top it off with silk flowers like a bouquet. This adorable puppy keepsake is the perfect decorative accent for your room:)

I have literally never posted a comment on a web site ever, but this site (makeitruby) is great! My daughter and I took a look this evening and she wanted to do every project! Thanks, DIYfather, for turning us on to this. Libby and I had a great evening...
