Get creative by making a craft related to one of his favourite hobbies. If he’s a fishing enthusiast, you could make a DIY fishing lure, a pocket-sized fishing rod or a mini tackle box. These DIY projects vary in difficulty, from kid-friendly (the mini tackle box) to a bit more complex (the pocket-sized fishing rod). Even better, after completing your craft, you could treat Dad out to a day fishing together!Grill set holder photo via Lil’ Luna, DIY manly man apron photo via Lovely IndeedIs Dad an avid backyard BBQ’er? Make him a customized cooking apron, a grill set holder or funky beverage holders to keep his drink cold. Get creative to include fabrics, messages and motifs customized to his style and interests.
