Tie Card for Dad

Supplies needed:
  • A piece of card stock or heavy construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Markers or crayons
  • Glue
  • 5 small white shirt buttons (optional)
  • A piece of colored construction paper or an old tie (ask Dad for an old tie you can cut up, just don't tell him why you want it)

 

To start making the shirt, cut the top of the card stock into an "M" shape.

 

Fold over the M-shaped area.

 

Draw a line down the center.

Either draw 3 buttons, glue on three paper circle (cut with a hole puch) or glue real buttons on the paper to the right of the line you just drew.

 

 

Either make a tie from construction paper or use the bottom part of an old tie (ask Dad for an old tie you can cut up, just don't tell him why you want it).

 

Glue the top of the tie to the card. The rest of the tie should be free to move.

 

Write a message to Dad on the tie, on the underside of the tie, and/or on the area of the shirt that is hidden by the tie.
