I know my blog tends to cater to the Do-It-Yourself (never buy something you could make yourself) type, but today I am providing you all with some Father’s Day gift ideas that range from complex DIY projects to simply purchasing a gift online!
I’ll be honest, I didn’t make time for a DIY project this week, which is why I chose to purchase my husband’s gift this year.
There is no shame in purchasing something, even if you could have made it yourself.
Because sometimes, time is more important than money!
I’ve listed these projects in an order that gets progressively more DIY involved, so feel free to stop at whatever level you relate to! And have fun picking something that will bless the socks off the father in your life! 🙂
