Easy Napkin Bow Ties for Father’s Day

Every year for Father’s Day, I get my girls to hand-make something for their dad. It’s only fair if I get a dried pasta necklace, dad should also receive his own masterpiece. And let’s be honest, these gifts are usually the most appreciated because of the love involved in creating them.

While school or kindy may organize a Father’s Day craft (and stall) for the school aged children, the kids that stay at home require a bit of guidance when creating their own gift.

These easy napkin bow ties are the perfect homemade gift for dad. Adult help will definitely be needed, but the whole activity can be done within 10 minutes using items you might already have in your house.

  3. Staple the middle of the bow so it stays in shape.
  4. Cut your ribbon to 150cm.
