Stuck Buying Gifts for Dad? Here are 12 Awesome Present He’ll Love Forever 

Let’s face it, Dad’s are hard to buy for, no matter what the event. Christmas, their birthday, and Father’s day are all occasions for celebrating your dad. But he is hard to buy for and even harder to pin down and get a straight answer to what he wants you to get him. 

  One thought is to go with something out of this world. Why not have a star named after him? He will cherish this great gift for the rest of his life. And he will be able to look up in the night sky and tell all his friends that he “owns” part of the landscape above. 

  Here are 12 awesome gift ideas Dad will love forever. 

  1. Make Your Own Hot Sauce  

DIY Dads love to make their own sauces and concoctions in the kitchen. Sometimes they need a little help to make sure what they are creating come out just right. 

For the Dad that loves to cover everything in spicy sauce, a make-your-own hot sauce kit is perfect. Most of them come with two to four choices of various hot peppers and oils that will complement the sauces. There are instructions on how to build your own hot sauce along with gloves to protect his hands from the heat.   

  1. Maps  

Choose a map that features the city your Dad loves the most or shows where he was born. The map can be created to show an enhanced view of baseball parks, ski resorts, zoos, or anything your Dad enjoys doing.   

The maps are created for can cozies, carving boards, picture frames, and so many more items to use or display their love of that city.   

  1. State Cutouts  

An outline of the state you live in or the one that Dad was born in is a great gift. They are made of cork or wood and hang in his office or anywhere in the house. These cutouts can be a place to collect things like beer bottle caps, wine corks, or ticket stubs from sports events.   

  1. Grill Kits  

Everyone’s father likes to grill, so what better gift than a grill kit? Most of them include the usual long-handled spatula, burger flipper, and tongs for picking up juicy steaks, but others have additional tools. Grill brushes to help remove stuck on food from the previous cookout is a helpful tool and so is a holder for all the utensils.   

There are also kabob holders that are similar to light sabers or long baskets to keep all his favorite veggies safe while grilling.   

  1. Mini Gardens  

For the outdoors type Pop, a mini herb garden is a perfect gift. One that sits on the kitchen countertop so he can snip what he needs for the delicious meals he prepares.   

These are as complex as hydroponics to as simple as a jar with water and roots already sprouted.   

  1. DIY Beer Making Kits

  There are many different types of DIY beer making kits available for the Dad that loves various beers. If he has never tried to brew his own beer, there are kits that are less complicated than others and taste just as great. 

  These kits come with their own containers so there is no need to take up space in the bathtub or sink, which is where DIY beer makers used to be done.   

  1. Tie Suitcase

  If your Pop travels and has to wear ties, this is an awesome gift. It allows him to roll his ties up and store them unfolded. The small case is a little larger than a softball and easily fits in his carry-on or suitcase.   

Add a personalized tie to this gift to make his collection complete. A tie with his favorite child’s photo is a nice touch, or one with the family dog is another one he would cherish for many years. 

  1. Metal Straws  

Going green is easier when you don’t throw away plastic straws. These metal straws are reusable and come with a tiny brush to clean out anything stuck on the inside. Keep plastic out of the oceans and reuse these metal straws over and over again.  

And don’t forget a countertop container to keep the straws clean and within reach for those late-night milkshakes and afternoon iced tea drink breaks.   

  1. Desk Accessories  

If Dad has to sit behind a desk all day, give him something fun to do while on a call or on the rare times he is caught up. There are mini golf games, card games, and so much more that take up little space on his desk, but these games provide big distractions when needed. It’s also a good idea to get him a little quirky item, especially on those days where he is bored senseless and needs a little pick-me-up. You can get custom Bobbleheads from your photos of him and get Bobbleheads made up of the whole family, which might be the thing to give him a smile when he’s not feeling sociable in the office.

  

There are also bigger games that he can hide under his desk for those afternoons when there isn’t much work to be done. This includes a mini Cornhole game, mini golf game, darts and anything distracting.   

  1. Game Used Items  

There is a whole industry that creates useful items out of used items from professional sports games. These include hockey pucks, baseball bats, hockey sticks, basketballs, golf balls, baseballs, stadium seats, and game uniforms. 

  They create everything from bottle openers and cufflinks, snow scraper sticks to wallets and desktop fun for the man who loves his sports team. 

  1. Cocktail Recipes

These might include whisky math, beer measurements, and the best Bloody Mary Mixes. The recipes could be printed on towels, refrigerator magnets, coasters, or poster board for easy access.   

Some of the recipes are imprinted onto carving boards which are useful and nice to display.   

  1. Grooming Kits  

These could be for his beard, which is extremely popular right now, to a manicure set for his nails. These kits can be for travel or contained in a nice box that he can display on the bathroom counter or his dresser.   

No matter what your Dad likes, there are unique gifts from around the globe, he would enjoy receiving from you for any occasion.
