TheDaddyDude

The Daddy Dude started the way most dad projects do — at the kitchen table, after bedtime.

I'm Josh: a dad, a horror author (the Zombie A.C.R.E.S. books), and the maker behind everything in this shop. I started designing printables for my own family — advent calendars to make December feel like an event again, planners to keep the chaos in one place, party stuff that didn't cost a fortune — and other parents started asking where they came from. So here they are.

Everything here is made to be printed at home and actually used: calendars, planners, party packs, and wall art with a storybook feel (and a spooky streak — I can't help it). Our mascot is Bob the llama, who wears a different costume every day and supervises nothing.

I design and finish every piece myself using digital tools, and I stand behind all of it. If something doesn't print right, message me and I'll make it right.

Made by a dad. Kid-approved. 🎃
