  • Dads are notoriously hard to buy gifts for. They seem to have everything and want nothing. When they do want something, they usually go ahead and buy it for themselves. Instead of buying dad another gift he inevitably won’t use or already has, try a creative DIY. Not sure what to craft for him? We have you covered. From painted wood coasters to a beer bouquet, it’s highly unlikely he DIY-ed any of these gifts for himself.
