The Best DIY Father’s Day Card – Father’s Day Candy Tie
What you will need to make a Father’s Day Candy Tie is in this picture below. I have what’s needed displayed in list form towards the bottom of the page. You can use any of their favorite candies. Have Fun!
Cut a tie shape out of the paper. I made mine about 12” long. Have your child write a note on the back of the paper or draw a picture. This makes it extra special 🙂
You will need to outline pieces of the shape of the tie to glue on later. I just traced my original tie and cut the center out only leaving about ½ “edges. You can cut these into 5 pieces to make it easier to glue on later.
Next, trace the tie onto the sheet protector and cut this out.
Glue the plastic piece onto the paper tie, but do not glue the top edge.
Now glue the edge pieces onto the tie. Every edge should have a piece to glue on. These will hide the glue under the clear sheet protector.
Fill your tie with dads favorite candy, and glue the top edge shut. Your DIY Father’s Day Card is ready to go.
Daddy and Grandpa will love this sweet candy tie treat that was handmade.
