Footy Dad
The Overview:
This is the guy that never misses a game, knows all the stats and follows his team religiously. He likely owns so much merch you’ve probably considered an intervention at some stage. When his team is losing it is best to leave him alone for a while. This is the footy dad and we flipping love him.
DIY Father’s Day Gifts:
He already has all the merch, and access to the game, so you need to get him something super personal, something that says ‘Dad, we support your unhealthy obsession.’ You could print something about his team or favourite player on a t-shirt, mug or poster, perfect to hang in the room he watches in; if he’s a sweet tooth you can make him some cookies with some football shaped cookie cutters (groovy!!) or simply get a footy and take him out for the day. This is one of the real DIY Father’s Day Gift Ideas; he’ll love that you want to get involved and it’s fun for you too! (If running and falling and throwing a ball around is fun for you... maybe only do this one if you actually like playing football).
Man Cave Dad
The Overview:
This Dad enjoys the finer things in life, and loves nothing more than kicking back in his favourite hideout with a nice Scotch, deep red or bubbly beer after a hard day. His Man Cave is his baby, and let's be honest, he probably loves it more than you (I mean not really, but maybe).
DIY Father’s Day Gifts:
This one is EA-SY, make him something for his mancave of course! Paint him a sign for him to hang up on display (make sure this fits the theme of his cave already, if it’s a rustic look go for some pallets! If it’s a more classy style Man Cave- the lesser existing types of the man caves- maybe put it on a piece of shiny tin), make him some coasters out of some old beer cartons or some pillows out of some Guernsey’s from his favourite sport! This are sure to bring some serious life to his pride and joy (yes we are still talking about his man cave).
Outdoorsman Dad
The Overview:
The outdoors Dad is always seen with a fishing rod in one hand and a torch in the other. This is the Dad who lives in his outdoor boots and goes hiking for fun (insane). This is one of the coolest of the cool Dads because he loves when you’re involved in his outdoor activities as well, adorable!
DIY Father's Day Gifts:
For your outdoorsy Dad one of the best DIY Father’s Day Gift Ideas is a homemade outdoor kit! Get a groovy container, decorate it any way you want and put all of the best outdoor tools you can think of inside! Some binoculars, a pocket knife and a compass, are just some of the must haves for this bad boy, but put your own spin on it to suit your Dad perfectly. Anything glow in the dark is brilliant as well, like some glow in the dark playing cards; this one isn’t so much one of our most perfect DIY Father’s Day Gift Ideas, however it does mean you’ll have to play with him to complete the gift, which is super DIY.
