I am super excited about this Father's Day gift.
This year I am doing a couple of themed gifts for Hubby. This is the second one. The first one was The World's Best Pop Father's Day gift.
For the second theme, I chose CAMPING. I gathered together a few fun and cheap camping items.
Then I made up this super cute...er...I mean...manly drawstring bag (which I am more than just a little in love with).
I put it together similar to how I made the Angry Birds Drawstring Bag...minus the Angry Bird face of course!
I cut the shirt so the buttons and the pocket would fit on the front of the bag. Then I used another old t-shirt to line the inside. The drawstring is some old rope I found laying around Hubby's tool bench.
I packed it full of the S'mores makings.
I printed off a tag I made in PicMonkey. I did a Google Image search for "Retro Camping" and picked an image to use for the background. I cropped it, added a border and my text.
My second favorite thing just after the flannel drawstring bag is the camping catch phrase I came up with to go on the tag. I still giggle when I say it out loud to myself...
"A Dad like you just CAMP be beat."
Hehehe...
I piled everything on top of my flannel treat bag and then secured it with more rope. I even tied it in a square knot, 'cause I am a legit woodsman like that.
Then I attached my tag to the rope with a cloths pin.
Second Father's Day gift done.
Perfect gift for the avid, recreational, or backyard camper.
