Dad will look super suave in this aquamarine balayage tie!
1. Put down a splash mat and wear gloves to protect your hands from the dye. Dampen the tie in water, squeezing out any excess.
2. Placing a paper plate underneath, apply the turquoise dye first. Massage it into the larger end of the tie, leaving the rest white for the blue dye.
3. Apply blue dye to the rest of the tie, massaging it into the fabric and gently combining it with the edge of the turquoise dye that was just applied.
4. Carefully place the tie into a plastic zip lock bag. Place in the fridge overnight to allow the colours to develop and sink in, then remove from the fridge and allow to air dry completely.
5. Once dry, rinse under cold water to wash out any excess dye. Dry completely and then heat set the tie using an iron on a low setting. Adult supervision is recommended when using an iron.
6. Your beautiful aquamarine tie is now ready to be wrapped up and given to Dad!

Super Dad Coin Holder
Use different sized bowls to create different shapes!
Materials: •
Iron-Me Beads Pegboard – Clear – 12758
•
Iron-Me Beads – Multi – Big Bottle – 12763
•
Iron-Me Beads Ironing Paper – Pack of 10 – 12754 Porcelain Bowl - 13494
• •
Other Materials Required: Template (page 8), iron
1. Use the template (page 8) and start in the middle of your board to create the super dad emblem.
We’ve provided a template but you can come up with any design you like! Experiment with different colours, shapes and sizes.
2. Next, create the outside border. Follow the template carefully so you know how big to make it.
3. Fill in the middle of the board to complete your design ready for ironing.
4. Place a sheet of ironing paper over your design so it is completely covered and then iron with a hot iron. Adult supervision is recommended when using an iron.
5. Once the beads have melted together, quickly flip the design over so it’s on the ironing paper. Remove the pegboard and place another piece of ironing paper on top of the design. Continue to iron the other side.
6. As the beads get hot and melt together the shape will become quite flexible. Carefully remove the ironing paper and mould it in the porcelain bowl whilst hot. Take care as the beads will be hot!
7. Allow the beads to cool completely to set your coin holder in shape ready for Dad to use!

2. On one piece, add a strip of double sided tape around the outside of the shape.
3. Do not add tape to the center of the shape (this is where the pencil end will sit). Repeat steps 2/3 for the second piece making sure the taped sides will align correctly.
4. Align your 2 pieces and press them together firmly so the tape sticks. Use a marker to draw in a hand design as shown.
5. Use the glitter foam alphabet to spell out the word ‘Dad’. Peel off the backing paper and press onto the hand to secure.
6. Add a touch of sparkle to your design using glitter glue. Allow to dry and your fun designs are now ready to be popped on top of some pencils for Dad!

These mugs can be decorated in a number of ways. Use the steps below as a decorative guide or mix up the techniques to create a unique combination of your own!
1. Print the template on page 10 and cut out. Adult supervision is recommend when using scissors. Use double sided tape to stick the letters to your mug.
2. Use CleverPatch™ Glass & Porcelain Markers to dot around the letters. Start from the edge of each letter and work your way outwards. Make sure there is a high concentration of dots close to the edge of the letters.
3. Once you have finished adding dots to your mug, carefully peel off the letters. If there are any smudges, use a cotton tip to remove the unwanted marks. Follow step 6 to heat set your design!
4. For another mug design, use the circle from the template (page 10) and trace using a Porcelain Marker. This will act as a guide so that you leave enough room for your message to Dad!
5. Using a CleverPatch™ Fine Tip Glass & Porcelain Marker, doodle around the outside of the circle. Make sure to cover the whole mug in your wonderful drawings. Add colour and a message for Dad to your mug.
6. Allow your design to dry for 24 hours. Place your mug in a cold household oven. Once the temperature has reached 160°C, bake your mug for 90 minutes to heat set your design.
