Woodworking gift ideas for Fathers Day

Woodworking gift ideas for Fathers Day

Dads are the most ordinary men, turned by love into heroes, adventurers, story-tellers, and singers of song. I could not agree more with Pam Brown. This Father’s day let us upgrade the old cards and chocolates to some awesome DIY woodworking gifts that you can customize to add your personal touch. Not only do these feel personal but these DIY projects that your father can use in his day-to-day life.

  1. Wooden toolbox - So that he can fix what you might have broken

Probably one of the essential must-haves. With all the kids running around some things bound to be broken. We all know before calling the repairman, dads would always give it a go. You can design the wooden toolbox however you want. You can make it single or double-tiered. 

  1. Docking station -So that he can find all his things in one place

This, might I say, is the coolest thing you can give your dad. A wooden docking station can be customized according to your needs. It can hold a mobile, wallet, keys, watches, etc, everything that your dad asks your mom where it is. It's a perfect gift for dads who tend to misplace things. You can enlarge it how much ever you want or you can make it compact to fit the desk. This will seriously give off a cool sophisticated look to your closet or bedrooms. Your dad wouldn't have to hastily search for it anywhere you go. 

  1. Tie rack - So that his ties are ready to go

If your dad loves his ties and has quite a collection of them and no place to arrange them, why not build him a tie rack made of wood. This can be made to hold how many ever ties that your dad has. Each separated from the other so he can choose without any difficulty plus they will be ready to go.

  1. Medicine box - So that he never forgets them

Customize a medicine box for those dads who tends to be quite forgetful. You can make a box with little compartments stating the days of the week and the number of times he has to take his medicine. This box can be made airtight so that the medicines do not go bad. This way he knows what to take when and never forgets them.

  1. Shoe rack - So that his shoes are organized

If your dad is a shoe enthusiast and has a collection of shoes, build him a shoe rack. That way he can keep his collection neat and organized. There are a variety of shoe rack designs one can follow. We have the traditional cabinet-type shoe rack or the open-type shoe rack, ladder-type shoe rack, etc. if your dad wants to display some of his shoes so that people can see his proud collection an open-type shoe rack ranging in various designs are suggested.

  1. Bathtub caddy - So that his body doesn’t ache anymore

This gift tells your dad that it is okay to put himself first sometimes. That he, like everyone else, deserves some alone time with himself. A can of beer or any of his favorite drinks, a football match, and a long relaxing bubble bath will set him right up. This caddy tray can be customized to fit any size of the bathtub. It can also hold an iPad or even a book if you feel like reading. It has ample space to hold scented candles, your phone, and even a stand where you can rest your glass or can so everything is spill-proof.
