It was fun to see the store windows in Paris last week… filled with gift ideas for their Fête des Pères…Father’s Day…on the same day as ours! I was also excited to see my latest email from Marie Claire Idées, a French newsletter with lots of fun crafting ideas! For example, here's a fun camping stool made from an old flannel shirt that has also been used to line the creel-turned-picnic basket!
I love the masculine edge to this photo display with its frame made of branches! 
Isn’t this clever? A framed organizer made from an old pair of jeans!
If you are good with power tools...or know someone who is... how about reworking a piece of furniture to create a wine cabinet!
Oooh…I like this one…parts of old tools painted to serve as labels for the garden! Love the wonderful garden cloche in the background!
And finally, a cabinet revamped with a large print of a wine label! And…lovers of corks…just look at that pretty basket filled with them! Sigh! Maybe it’s a little too late to create one of these, but I am definitely filing them away in my gift idea file!Bonne Fête and Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads in your life!
Those are some interesting and unique ideas! Have a great weekend!

Wonderful images, Debbie. The fishing stool reminds me, there is one in the basement I should dig out and use in some way around here.
ReplyDeleteReally sweet ideas!
