Etsy Monday 3 Father's Day Ideas You Can Download from PaperMaidStudio

I have been (very slowly) working on some designs for gift tags you can download, so I have developed an appreciation for the amount of work that goes into coming up with something that actually looks good.

PaperMaid Studio has some cute ideas for Father's Day (as well as other holidays). If you need a quick way to get the kids something they can put together for Father's Day, you can download these files for a reasonable price.

Etsy Monday ThePersonalized Gift Does Father's Day

When I was about 9 or 10, I gave my father a cigar box wrapped in velvet to hold his "things".  Many, many years later, when we were going through his condo after he died, there it was -- sans velvet, but still with things.

This Etsy shop has the same idea, but maybe a little fancier.

The shop offers custom engraving options

You can engrave both sides.

They offer other personalized gift options for inside -- cufflinks and tieclips are some of the nicer options.

Etsy Monday New Frontier does Father's Day gift tags

I hope all you moms were given your due yesterday. I love having a whole day where the people I love agree with everything I say!

Looking ahead to Father's Day, I found these great gift tags on Etsy at a shop called The New Frontier.   She has a lot of tags, some are upcycled. Here's what the shop owner says about them:

"Tags are  punched from rescued cardboard sleeves that come with a product we use a lot of. The cardboard is clean and a beautiful craft brown. These tags also look great with a simple stamped theme. 

Large size gift tags on tan card stock, acid free. 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches"

I love the way these look, and imagine using them with black ribbon and kraft paper for Dad's Day. I also have some white shelf paper I like to use for clean looking gifts, and re-using maps would also work well here.

Great car tag

Like this for Dad's Day and for social activists

This would look good as a tag on recycled map gift wrapping. 

Dad Day

My dad, who passed away some years ago, was so important to me growing up.  He worked so hard to teach his children independent thought, intellectual honesty and love for one's fellow man through his words and deeds.  He went on to do the same with his grandchildren.  I never think of him without a warm feeling lighting up my day. I was fortunate enough to finally marry a man who brought all those special qualities and more to his dadship.

So we can all celebrate our wonderful dads, here's a quick round up from Etsy of Father's Day gift wrap, starting with some fun stamp action:

Talk to the Sun has great stamps you can use to make your own gift wrap.

What a great graphic choice from ThePerkyPainter in the UK!

Super Cute option with a great Dad Day tag. Awww.

FancifulChaos does the map gift wrap thing. So appropriate.

Father's Day is coming

I found this wrapping very entertaining. Particularly since my husband is mustachioed.
