Guest Post: Fathers Day Gift Ideas & Giveaway!

Hi There! My name is Danie. I have an online store called BLANK and I'm thrilled the very clever Cinti has asked me to share some Fathers Day gift ideas with you on My Poppet today!

Fathers Day is just around the corner and we have put together a few of our favourite project ideas:
Oh! And there's an awesome Giveaway too!

✎ Draw your Dad on gift tags to add that personal touch to Dad's present.
You can get these face shaped gift tags from BLANK or even cut out your own.

- Dad will love a notepad for his desk that is designed by you! It's a fun project for little and big kids too! I especially love stamping the sides of these cubes - and I'm sure many of My Poppet readers would have a little collection of rubber stamps to use! Just remember to pop a rubber band around the edge of the cube when decorating it. This will keep the pages nice and tight together, making sure the surface is solid for your stamps and your marker pens don't get caught between the pages!

- Fill up some gift boxes with Dad's favourite treats (nuts, sweets and cookies - perfect trifecta!). We chose the turquoise, yellow and warm grey coloured boxes and simply cut out the letters D A D from white paper and glued them on the boxes.

BLANK coloured gift boxes have a lovely matte finish and look fab when decorated with my two favourites - coloured gel ink pens and washi tape!

- Washi Tape Love - show off your supply with layers of washi tape and have lots of fun wrapping Fathers Day gifts. Add the final touches of bakers twine and a coloured gift tag! Perfection!

- Best Dad Ever, #1 Dad, You're the best, Super Dad, World's best Dad… the awards go on and on with our award ribbon stickers!
We hope we've inspired you to make and package a unique gift for Dad. He will be delighted!

Thanks Danie!

what a gorgeous site! The matryoshka dolls are a lovely idea - i have 5 boys - so the 5pk would be great for them to do a self portrait of themselves :)

Cotton muslin bags are perfect for me. I'm an organised person and love these things for storage.

I'd have to have a set of 5 Matryoshka dolls so the kids can paint them for their Babushka. And definitely the red floral washi tape - because it's so pretty!

The 'draw your dreams' pillowcase kit - love it! It would be great to do a pillowcase as an annual event, and see how drawings and dreams change over the years.

Those gift tags, especially the Christmas ones. Actually, it is their IDEAS that woo me as much as the products. Love the work.

Well, I love the washi tape--so much to do with it. But I have to say the nesting eggs are my favorites. I've been wanting to make millefiori polymer clay eggs, and these, I think, would be perfect to do it on.

Love all the ideas. Those blanks are cute. And I love the blank face tags. I have been wanting to try washi tape--just haven't found it in any of the stores around me.
