Father’s Day Bow Tie Gift Package

I think that one of the most important gifts you can give is your time.  It’s one of the most precious resources any of us have. 

Have you ever played the M & M get to know you game?  I thought it would be fun to give your a child and their Father the gift of time.  Time together - getting to know each other.

I’ve also seen M & M packaged tied with a ribbon in the center so it looks like a bow tie.  So, I decided to combine them both and came up with this:

  

 

 

I had a GREAT time on Good Things Utah demonstrating this project.  My boys are so excited to do this with my husband.

So Sophie “Charming” was just perfect for this project.  The colors and patterns are masculine and the embellishments go along so well with the theme of this project.  And, I got to use one of my favorite titles: “You are the living proof that love exists”.

I hope you enjoyed this project as much as I do!

I think I'll borrow this idea and do a simplified version. We have about 75 we'd need to make and no budget for it. But I LOVE this idea. Thanks.

Amber, this is a very cute idea!! You are so creative. OK, for craft challenged people like me, is there a pattern for the bow tie? I did not see one.
