Father's Day Idea

Just In Time For Father's Day...
The Dollar Store has the "Big Daddy Size" 1 liter bottles of Dad's Root Beer just in time for a great Father's Day gift or Centerpiece.
Use the Soda bottle as a weight and attach balloons around the bottle neck. Color coordinate the ribbons attached to balloons and curl the ribbon to fall down around the soda bottle. Choose balloons with messages on them or, better yet, write your own!
At Church, we have a tradition of serving the men homemade cinnamon rolls at the end of Sunday meetings. As a centerpiece, I am attaching red, yellow, and blue balloons to a few bottles of Dad's Root Beer. The men mostly care about the delicious cinnamon rolls, but I am all about creating the atmosphere and the presentation. This is a simple touch, not too froo-froo for the men folk.
Another idea is to use a bottle of Dad's Root Beer as a "place card" at Dad's seat at the dinner table. Place it on or near his plate. Place it alone or attach a note with a color coordinated ribbon.
As dessert on Father's Day, make Root Beer Floats with Dad's Root Beer. There are so many possibilities for using Dad's Root Beer for Father's Day.

We used these to pass out to all the men who serve in primary when I was in the presidency and we made them those shirt and tie cards kinda like the ones Martha is doing in her mag. :)
