Father's Day Candy Ties & Free Printable Gift Tags

Candy Tie

Back in my Mother's Day Gift Tags post, I mentioned that I volunteered to be in charge of getting a small gift for all the ladies at church.  Well as we were driving home from church that day, my husband asked what I was going to do for Father's Day.  (I guess that means I was volunteered again!)
I told him I was thinking of doing something with ties and candy or candy shaped like ties or something of that nature. This is what I came up with.

Candy Sticker Tie

What you need:
- Bag of M&Ms regular size
- KitKat (regular size) or Cracker package
-Tape
-Stickers (optional)
- Tie Printable (optional)

Tips: (I figure the picture gives away how to make these but thought I'd share a couple tips.)
- I taped the point first so you can push the m&ms down into it before you tape the top.
- When I used the KitKat, I also taped the sides back on the m&ms since the KitKat was smaller length ways.

Gift Tags: 
I also made these printable gift tags to go with them.  I played off the whole "tie" thing and purposefully kept them vague so they could go for anyone and would be great to give out at church.  But I also wanted some that the kids, that I'm going to rope into helping me make all these (my Sunday school class), could give to their own fathers or grandfathers.

Feel free to print out as many as you want and make your own candy ties or use them on whatever gifts you have planned. 
What are your plans for Father's Day? Are you making anything fun?
