Great DIY gifts for dad on fathers day!
I'm so excited to share 6 different gift ideas even your kids can make.
#1. Transform a simple pane window into a photo holder.
Choose from our new selection of Americana Deco Art Chalky Paint! It adheres to almost any surface without sanding or priming!
Directions:
- Tape off window pane with painters tape.
- Paint frame with Chalky paint 1-2 coats.
- Sand areas you would like to rough up to give it a weathered look or put a matt or gloss sealer over the top for a cleaner look.
- Place vinyl on the front of the glass by Decorating Your Life.
- place 8x10 photos behind the glass and use 8 mini magnets to hold photo in place. 4 magnets on the front and 4 behind the glass for each photo.
#2 Personalized photo frame
Not Everyone has artistic handwriting so here is a great way to create this project stress free!
Directions:
- Start by painting the unfinished frame with Chalk Paint.
- Print out what you would like to say on a word document.
- Place tracing paper under your word document and trace over each letter or image with a pencil.
- Lift up paper and you should have an out line of your image.
- Use a Bistro Marker to fill in your image.
- Last take a white piece of chalk to season your frame.
- Wipe off extra chalk and you are done!
#3 Chalky Frame "I love that you're my father"

This is super easy! Just paint your frame with black acrylic paint, add "I love that you're my father" vinyl, then season your frame with white chalk!
