I have noticed that both of Evan's grandpa's enjoy candy now and then. I have also noticed that both of Evan's grandma's don't like it when Evan's grandpa's have candy in their houses!
I thought Evan could give his grandpa's a " Candy stache" for Fathers day.
This is the first time I have done a " Mustache" craft. honestly, I don't really get why mustaches are so trendy. Last weekend when my father in law was visiting, Evan wouldn't stop playing with his mustache, so I thought that a mustache gift would be cute ! My dad doesn't have a mustache, but I will just have to explain to him that things with " mustache's are extremely trendy right now.
How to make a Candy " Stache"
1) Purchase some candy jars. I found these glass jars in the home good department at Target.
2) Fill the jars with the favorite candy of the recipient. ( I have noticed that both of Evan's grandpa's like peanut M&M's.
3) Make a gift card that states " Grandpa's stache" and draw a mustache on it as well. I used puff paint. A Sharpie mark we would work well too.
4) With a hole puncher, and ribbon, attach the card to the candy jar.
I think this is a cute little gift. Dad's are difficult to buy for. Candy is always a fun gift!
