Father’s Day is fast approaching and the burning question of what to buy the father figures in our life once again needs answering. If you are stuck then I have put together a list of gift guide full of wonderful gift ideas for Father’s Day with something for everyone.
Wallet
Most men use wallets at some point if not daily, so how about a classic leather wallet from Engravers Guild. You can opt for black or brown premium leather and even get it engraved with their initials in gold, silver or blind embossed letters and have it delivered in a Visconti presentation box. These wallets are fantastic quality and measure 11cms tall and 9cms wide and can hold both coins and notes with three slip compartments and a slip note compartment. This wallet also features RFID protection to ensure personal data is kept safe.
Sunglasses
We have certainly been lucky with the weather so far this spring and I am hopeful that we will have a warm and sunny summer too. If we do then a pair of sunglasses would be a perfect gift for your dad this Father’s Day. Trendhim have over 200 pairs of sunglasses to choose from covering a range of designs and prices. I particularly like these Walden black and brown wade sunglasses by Waykins.
A New Watch
Every man needs a time piece so how about giving him an upgrade this Father’s Day. Engravers Guild have a umber of beautiful watches to choose from including the Spirit Men’s PU Strap watch pictured below. And what’s even better is that if you order a watch from Engravers Guild you can have a personal message engraved on the underside of the watch for free and it will arrive well packaged in a smart presentation box too.
Stylish Lamp
Interior design is no longer just the female domain so if your dad loves a stylish home then this handcrafted copper and stone table lamp from Click Style Ltd is the perfect gift. It is just the right amount of minimalist meets contemporary and would make a great statement lamp without being too in your face. What’s even better is that Click Style Ltd plant a tree for every sale that they make so by ordering your Father’s Day gift from them you are also helping to shape the future for the next generation, what could make a better gift than that?
The Layla Bubble Planter
Another beautiful interior option that once again makes a subtle statement is the Layla Bubble Planter from Click Style Ltd. It stands at 20cms tall and 20cms wide making it ideal for even your larger house plants and the glazed bubbles are eye catching and stylish, making this gift look a lot more expensive than it actually is. The Layla Bubble Planter is currently available in 7 different shades and 2 different sizes so you are bound to find the perfect bubble planter for your dad.
Roses
I know that roses might not be your first gift idea when thinking about your dad but these aren’t your average roses, these are boxed roses that last 12 months and come beautiful preserved in a lovely gift box that can be personalised with a Happy Father’s Day note too.
Eternal Blossom have created something very unique and very beautiful with these rose boxes. They use only roses grown in South America that are then hand harvested when in full bloom and then partly dried before being preserved so they last for one whole year and remain smelling gorgeous. If you have a dad that likes his roses, gardening or even interior design then this modern twist on a classic is definitely the gift for him.
Posters
If you want to stick with the interior gift idea but think your dad prefers more bursts of colour and funny slogans then Nanas of Anarchy is where you need to go. They offer a hole range of fun and fabulous prints to make your dad smile this Father’s Day. They are available in a host of sizes, as posters, fully framed or even as canvas prints and with so many designs to choose from you will be spoilt for choice.
Beauty Gift Set
For the men that love a good grooming session then head to Scrub for a gift set or two. They have a selection of handmade soaps and bath products created here in the UK using Shea butter and essential oils. Not only do the products look lovely but they smell incredible too. You can chose from one of the ready made gift boxes or select a few of the individual products and create your own gift. The shower steamers are sure to be popular with those that enjoy a long hot shower.
Hip Flask
If your dad is partial to a little tipple every now and then then why not treat him to a hip flask from. This beautiful black leather hip flask comes as a gift set containing a 6 oz engraved hip flask , a pouring funnel and two steel cups presented in a black gift box. You can request to have it engraved at no extra cost with three lines of 16 characters available, or opt for their initials as shown below.
Alcohol free Whiskey
We can’t suggest a hip flask without suggesting something delicious to go in now can we? So, whether your dad loves a little tipple or whether he is T total how about getting him a bottle of the Clean W from Clean Co to try. It is an alcohol free amber oaked spirit that has the characteristic Bourbon nose with classic notes of oak and sweet vanilla, underpinned by rich spice, apple and figs, with a smooth finish. It is the perfect gift for someone who is conscious of their health as not only is it alcohol free but it is also sugar free, gluten free and vegan friendly.
Coffee
If Dad is more of a coffee drinker then how about treating him to some delicious Lofbergs coffee. This Scandi brand have created a coffee that is big on flavour but little on price. Whether you want to opt for ground coffee, whole beans or filter coffee Lofbergs have the one for you (or your dad). Put together with a nice new mug or even a coffee percolator and you will have a very impressive hamper on your hands.
Wireless Phone Charger
The snap+ wireless phone charger is the perfect gift for any dad who has a (compatible) phone. It is a universal charger that can be used with any smart phone and offers fast charging through the magnetic attachment that can even work through light weight cases.
Red Letter Day Voucher
Vouchers are a great gift idea as they can be used to create memories with a loved one. Red Letter Days have so many to chose from, there are vouchers for things to do together such as meals out or show tickets, as well as vouchers you could get for dad to do on his own whilst you watch like driving experiences or even sky diving. There really is something for everyone and what’s even better is that if dad doesn’t love the voucher you have chosen for him he can simply exchange it for another one on the Red Letter Days website. They currently have a sale on so their vouchers are even better value for money including The Ultimate Four Car Mash Up driving experience that is usually £496 but is currently on offer £120.
A Tablet Bag
Whether your dad is a tablet user or a book reader these Volkswagen Camper bags are the perfect size. Made from high-quality imitation leather with a wide shoulder strap and internal pockets featuring a1960’s T1 camper with a bold stripe retro design is fun and fashionable, not to mention practical too!
A Sweet Treat
Who doesn’t love a sweet treat? Candy Roo have something for everyone with their wide selection of sweets, fudges, nougat, chocolates and liquorices. You can opt for some of dads favourites, some old time classics or introduce him to some new flavours with a classic Pick N Mix all available in resealable pouches or jars. Personally I think the jars look brilliant as a gift. If your dad is vegan then don’t worry as Candy Roo have a selection of vegan friendly sweets too including both fizzy and non fizzy. And if that isn’t enough to make you want to buy your sweets from Candy Roo then how about the fact that they are eco conscious, planting a tree for every sale and offsetting employee and company CO2.
Wine
Sometimes the only gift that will do is the gift of their favourite tipple and if that is what your dad wants this Father’s Day then head to Sparkling Direct where you can choose from spirits and wines, including this lovely French Bordeaux, which come presented in these beautiful wooden gift boxes. You can also add an extra touch by including a personalised gift message that comes inside the box in a little envelope.
Photo Gifts
If you have read The Strawberry Fountain for a while you will know I am a total sucker for a personalised gift, I think it shows real thought and consideration and forward planning. Photo gifts are the same and Max Spielman have loads to choose from, some ready within the hour too! You can opt for anything from a personalised mug to a large wall canvas of your favourite snap, a framed montage to a phone case. They really fo have something for every dad. All you have o do is pick your favourite snaps and get creative.
gain if your dad loves to be in the kitchen cooking up a storm then how about a casserole dish. This MasterClass 5L Cast Aluminium Casserole Dish from Cook Serve Enjoy is pretty in lavender but you can order it in Hunter Green if you think dad would prefer that colour. It is lightweight, easy to use, non stick and dishwasher safe. It also has a self basting lid for extra succulent results. Now all you have to do is convince your dad to use it to treat you to tea as a way of saying thank you and everyone’s a winner.
BBQ Rub
If your dad is more of a BBQ king than a kitchen master chef then this World Spice and BBQ Rub Spice Tin from Spice Kitchen is for him. The set comes in a stainless steel storage tin containing 8 different high quality spices and BBQ rubs, an inspirational recipe book, a metal measuring spoon and is presented in a lovely hand sewn vibrant sari wrap.
