Here’s where I’m buying gifts for my Dad, Grandfather and my SO’s Dad.
I highly recommend checking this guy’s stuff out because I bought my SO’s Mom
a gift from this guy and she and her Mom thought I paid way more than I did
and were both THRILLED so I got lots of free “cool points” and uhmmm other “rewards”.
I wrote him yesterday and there’s still time but clearly I’d hurry if I were you

Hello, I am hosting our family reunion on Father’s Day. So far, my ideas are to use neckties and a sharpie for name tags, and to have an ugly shirt and tie contest. What else can we do to highlight Dads? Any ideas. Lydia in Donnelly, Idaho

Dress up a boring porcelain mug with a cheeky mustache that brings some character to his morning. All you needs is a plain mug, a sharpie, a mustache stencil (if you don’t trust your own drawing skills), and a porcelain paint pen, which you can find at most craft stores.
