As much as I love to give my husband a handmade DIY Father’s Day gift from the kids, I’m not the craftiest person in the world. They make their own cards and we call it a day. But after discovering this awesome DIY gift idea, I think I might have the kids forgo the cards and help them make this instead.
This awesome photo book design project from Design Aglow is so simple even I can do it. Really.
Using their Interactive Guest Book feature, designer Ashley Campbell created a unique photo book that I’m pretty sure any dad will love. It includes pages full of photos of the kids, but what’s special are the blank pages with prompts for kids to draw, color, and write their own messages to Daddy.
You could also use other photo book services, like Blurb or Shutterfly to create your own photo book (just make sure to leave a few pages blank!), which your kids will love to make and dad will love to receive. The best kind of Father’s Day gift, I think. -Kristen
