Dad’s, if you have young children and want to surprise your wife with a homemade craft you can find ideas online. Here is one craft idea to make with your child’s help that will be one of your wife’s keepsakes.
Use clean baby food jars. Spray-paint the lids with nontoxic paint. Use one of your favorite drawings or cut out a section from it to fit on the jar. Brush the outside of the jar with Modge Podge (all-in-one glue, sealer and finish ) and place the drawing on it. Brush Modge Podge over the drawing. You can then sprinkle the outside of the jar with glitter. When dry, fill the jar with candy and give Mom the beautiful treasure!

What a cute idea! When the candy is gone, mom can store makeup or something else in the jars.
