Materials
- 8 1/2-by-14-inch decorative paper
- Glue
Steps
- Place paper facedown. Fold in half vertically; unfold. Line up left edge with centerline fold, and crease; repeat with right edge. Unfold, and lay flat.
- Fold top-left corner in to line up with outermost crease, forming a triangle; repeat on top-right corner. Using index fingers and thumbs, pinch together outside points of each triangle so they meet, and crease.
- While still pinching triangles, fold down top edge (this will make sleeves).
- Turn paper upside down, and flip it over. Fold down top edge 3/4 inch.
- Flip paper over. Fold top left and right corners so tips meet at centerline.
- Tuck bottom edge under collar, and flatten by creasing. For the tie, cut out an 8-by-1/2-inch strip of decorative paper. Knot paper. Snip close to knot on one side; trim other to a point. Glue to shirt.

Nearly four million healthy babies were born last year thanks to innovations that resulted from funding from the March of Dimes. The 2014 March of Dimes “imbornto” campaign celebrates the fantastic things babies were born to do and thanks the mothers and fathers who brought them into the world.Through Father’s Day, the Foundation is partnering with media, retailers and brands to remind everyone when they reflect on family that no matter what you were born to do, the March of Dimes helped you get there. Funds raised will help moms have healthy, full-term pregnancies.
to help further support both the March of Dimes and Mom’s and Dad’s everywhere, please feel free to share these recipes and craft ideas with your network and encourage consumers to shop and donate through Father’s day at www.imbornto.com. Babies – and parents - will thank you. Additional recipes and crafts can also be located on http://imbornto.com/featured.
