Father’s Day—21st June—is almost here, and you may still be confused about what to get him this year. Dads tend to have everything they need, and it can be pretty challenging to choosing a gift, despite them appreciating even the smallest things you do for them.

If you really want to make your dad feel extra special, why not surprise him with a handmade gift that you made on your own? With a splash of creativity and lots of love, you can make this Father’s Day unforgettable for the man of the house.

Here are some DIY gift ideas that can be crafted in minutes (or maybe hours with all the nap and snack breaks), so roll up your sleeves and dive in!

DIY Skinny Tie

While you can easily order a tie from an online store to gift your dad, it may not hold that unique feel that comes with something you made on your own.

Imagine your dad wearing that skinny tie to work and telling his coworkers that his child made it for him. Feels amazing, right? And the best part? It’s incredibly easy to make! All you'll need is a lovely patterned fabric, any damaged old tie that your dad no longer wears, a pair of sharp scissors, some sewing pins and thread, and a pressing iron.

A DIY Gadget Sleeve

Dads love their gadgets, whether it's a digital notebook, laptop, or tablet. If your dad owns any of the gadgets, you can gift him a unique gadget sleeve to keep his tech-toys protected. You'll have to have some sewing skills for this one, but the steps are pretty simple, and you'll quickly learn. You can also add sections for holding pens, touch pens, small note pads, and other extras to make this gadget sleeve his all-time favorite accessory. Watch the step-by-step video tutorial here

Personalized Spatula

If sewing projects are a bit too difficult for you, don’t worry. If your dad takes pride in being the grill master for all your family barbeques and backyard summer parties, surprise him with a personalized spatula that he can flaunt during all his grilling adventures. All you need is a new wooden spatula, sandpaper, a pair of sharp scissors, foam brush, paints, paintbrushes, and mod podge. Read how to make a heartfelt and useful personalized spatula here!
