I made my dad a photo book of pictures from his childhood for father’s day last year – he loved it!
I bet he loved it. Thanks for sharing, Jenn!
I esp. like the daddyism’s poster idea! I also like the idea of a photo grouping of our kids wearing daddy’s favorite ball cap, motorcycle jacket, helmet, playing his trombone, etc. Catching them in ‘his element.’
I loved Father’s Day Gift Idea #6: Silly Photo Panels for my husband. I am sure he would love to put in his new office.
My Dad loves calenders and so do I, so that would be my first choice on what to order for him for Father’s Day
I love the idea of Before and After.
The calendar is great – a reminder all year long!

My favorite is dad on the road book. My husband started a new job that requires traveling – that would be a perfect gift because his family misses him when he is gone!
The Dad photo book would work for me.
Father’s Day Gift Idea #7: Daddy-isms Poster is my favorite!

The sports theme is a great idea!
I love the sports calendar idea! I had never thought of that. It’s a perfect idea!
not only dads love photo books. my kids pour over these books like they were 30 years olds reliving their childhood. they are 12 & 14. so much fun!!!
I made a photo book for my parents 50th anniversary this year. I think for my dad I’d like to make him one with his two brothers and four sons. A bro book!
Absolutely love making photo albums for family and friends as gifts. It’s the one guft yhat will be enjoyed endlessly and tbe older you get the more memories the photo elicit. Great gift idea for any occassion, or even for no occassion at all.
I had a photo book made and Picaboo did an awesome job!!
Who wouldn’t want a photobook-and lots of bacon-for Father’s Day! My husband would be sooo happy!
Love the Sports calendar idea for my sports fanatic husband!!!
Bacon an photobooks sound great to me for my Dad too!!
My dad absolutely lives both bacon & photos
I’m new to photobooks, but I love them!
I made a photo baby book of my second son for my parents for Christmas last year and my Dad specifically asked for another one of our first son as well. Father’s Day seemed like the perfect “event” to give it to him. So, in our “book,” photobooks make the best gifts!
PS. Bacon just makes everything better :p
I need to make an on-the-road photo book for my husband. He has 2 more detachments coming up soon with the Navy, and then an 8-month deployment. He’ll come back when our son turns a year old. I know he’d love to have photos to flip through while he’s away.
Definitely the photo book!!
Love the Dad Day ideas!
Dadyisms and Before & After are good ideas.
I like the “Daddy-isms Poster”. That is an unusual idea that I haven’t seen anywhere else!
