" Five days before Father&amp;#039;s Day, and you still don&amp;#039;t have anything? No plan? Neither did Haeley Giambalvo, author of Design Improvised, until she dreamed up this quick and simple way to improve her dad&amp;#039;s game. It&amp;#039;s so easy, in fact, that even little ones can make these.           I made these paint dipped tees for my dad and husband last year - a fun idea if you are looking for a Father&amp;#039;s Day gift this week!

If you&amp;#039;re using a craft paint that&amp;#039;s on the thicker side, Haeley suggests diluting it slightly with water (as long as it&amp;#039;s water soluble paint) so it&amp;#039;s thinner for dipping. &amp;quot;You don&amp;#039;t want it to clump up on the tees,&amp;quot; she explains. She used a couple drops of water to dilute her paint.   2. Put a dab of paint on a paper plate, and roll the bottom half of the tee around in it to achieve that dipped effect. Vary the amount of tee covered in paint.   3. Tap the pointy end against the paper plate a few times to remove excess paint.   4. Allow the tees to dry upside down on a clean paper plate.    5. Wrap them up for the lucky recipient. Haeley packaged her tees in a plastic baggie with a handmade gift tag for her dad.     Or, try one of these crafty 10 Last-Minute Father&amp;#039;s Day Gifts.
