Our Top 5 Homemade Gifts For Men

July 10, 2018 by FaveCrafts Leave a Comment

Everybody loves a homemade gift. Whether you’re given a crochet scarf or a handmade card, homemade gifts make you feel a little extra loved and appreciated. I mean, don’t get me wrong; I would love a brand-new pair of shoes. But nothing beats a homemade gift because it means somebody spent their time and energy crafting a personalized gift just for you.

Although receiving homemade gifts is wonderful, crafting one is even better! When you create your own gift, you’re showing someone that you care about them so much that you’d go above and beyond to make them happy. And when you’re married or in a relationship, it’s always important to show your appreciation for your significant other on special occasions (and every other day, really).

So, if you’d like to make your man feel special on your anniversary or his birthday, I’ve compiled this list of Our Top 5 Homemade Gifts For Men! With any of these homemade gifts for men, your special guy will see that you’ve dedicated a lot of time and energy to creating his present. He’ll know that you really love and appreciate him. And he’ll be so happy that he might cry tears of joy!

While you might’ve never thought about gifting your man a self-care product, this DIY Beard Oil is definitely a gift that you should consider! Most men do not practice any form of self-care, so their skin and hair tend to be dry and rough. Beard oil is important because it moisturizes your husband’s facial hair and the skin beneath it. And if your significant other has wild facial hair, the DIY oil will help tame that too! So, although your spouse/boyfriend might not immediately appreciate it, he’ll definitely thank you later.

5 Sewn Gifts for Men This Valentine’s Day

January 27, 2014 by AllFreeSewing 1 Comment

It can be tough deciding what to give your man for Valentine’s Day. Do you want to go silly or sentimental? Is your guy stylish or too tough for trends? The editors of AllFreeeSewing have pulled these perfect present ideas for Valentines Day for you to make your man. If you’re at a loss over what to make the Mr. Wonderful in your life, take these five tutorials to the sewing machine and start creating.

sewn-gifts-for-men

Five Sewn Gift Ideas for Your Man

Mug Rug and Applique Heart Pocket1. Mug Rug and Applique Heart Pocket – For the more traditional approach to Valentine’s Day, go with something sweet. This tutorial allows you to get your sewing fix in by creating something absolutely, heart-wrenchingly cute (have you seen the pocket on this project?), and give something to your man. Set the table on V-Day with this mug rug, a sweet note tucked inside the pocket, coffee, and his favorite breakfast food. Doesn’t have to be complicated, just has to be cute.

Magic Tie Trick2. Magic Tie Trick – This simple sewing project can work for the goof-ball or polished professional. A man who appreciates a funny but effective fix to an everyday problem, he’ll be grateful that you went with this DIY idea. Made to keep his tie from falling forward, this easy trick doesn’t damage the quality of your guy’s tie and won’t take you long to do. Sounds like a win-win!

Firewood Tote3. Firewood Tote – If your man is a rough and tough cookie, he’ll appreciate this Firewood Tote from We Wilsons at Whipup. Get the free pattern to make this simple but handy tool that will make transporting that firewood easier for your man.

Gentleman's iPhone Case4. Gentleman’s iPhone Case – It’s up to you whether you want to go above and beyond and get him a hip and happening phone for Valentine’s Day (we probably wouldn’t), but this case can offer any older phone a stylish look that will make his device look brand new. Made from a masculine suede, this protective sleeve is both useful and aesthetically pleasing. Nothing says “I love you,” like a mechanism to protect your main means of communication between each other.

Leather Patch Scarf5. Leather Patch Scarf – Is he sleek and chic? We saved this sewing project for those that have a guy who enjoys looking good like you do. This sewn accessory is small and subtle enough to appeal to many tastes. With strong leather embellishments he can associate you with a feeling of warmth whenever he wears this sweet scarf.

We may not be pros, but we still think these sewing projects are pretty decent DIY gifts for Valentine’s Day. Still, you tell us,

What’s the best gift to give your man for Valentine’s Day?

Trendy Quilted Gifts for Tech Geeks

July 31, 2013 by FaveQuilts 1 Comment

Although there are quilt designs called Grandma’s Garden Flowers and Log Cabin Blocks, quilting is anything but outdated. Actually, I’ve found that quilting and technology go hand in hand. Not only is there a diverse collection of free quilt patterns and quilting tutorials on sites like FaveQuilts, there is also a growing interest in small handmade gift patterns for tech accessories.

You can choose to create a graduation gift for a college student with a laptop, a birthday gift for a dad that likes to read his Kindle on the train, or a quilted Christmas present for a photographer who wants a DIY camera strap. You are guaranteed to find a fantastic free quilted gift pattern for every tech geek on your list.

 

 Camera Accessory Quilt Gift

Digital Camera Case

Whether they are a photographer for National Geographic or a new parent who loves snapping pictures of their baby, anyone with a camera will love a personalized camera strap. I’ve noticed that avid photographers always need to keep their cameras close to them; which is why a Quilted Camera Strap Cover is such a fashionable idea for anyone in need of a DIY camera strap. Need a quilted gift design for someone who goes on a lot of fun family trips? This Digital Camera Case is an easy quilted gift pattern that does an excellent job of protecting a camera on the go. For an even quicker pattern for a personalized camera case, check out a contemporary Quilted Camera Case that would be a perfect quilted gift for a teenager.

 

 

Laptop and iPad Case Quilt Gifts

Vintage-looking Laptop Case

Nowadays, every college and high school student has a laptop. Any young adult is sure to appreciate your talent when you make them a cool laptop or iPad case quilt gift. Your daughter or granddaughter will be the chicest girl on campus when you quilt her this Vintage-Looking Laptop Case to carry her computer between lecture halls. For college-aged guys, check out an ironic pattern for a Retro iPad Case DIY that actually looks like a vintage transistor radio. Last but not least, make a DIY laptop case for dear old dad or a beloved husband with this Manly Man Laptop Case.

 

 

eReader Cover Quilt Gifts

Love of Literature Tablet Cover

One of the greatest features about gadgets like ereaders is that they help save trees by putting news articles and books online. I especially love this idea for the Love of Literature Tablet Cover because it protects a tablet  but also flaunts an appliqued vintage typewriter. You can also protect your electronic reader by making this Mexican-themed scrap quilt design for a Dia de los Muertos Kindle Sleeve. For an even quicker tutorial on constructing a Kindle or eReader cover, check out this pattern for a  Last Minute Gift Kindle Cover.

 

The free quilted gift patterns for new technologies don’t stop there. Check out 23 Geeky Gifts for Nerds for even dorkier gift ideas!

Sewing for Men: Tough Projects You Have to Try

May 20, 2013 by AllFreeSewing 1 Comment

Man, it sometimes seems like sewing projects are tailored only to women. What about the boys? After all, according to the U.S. census roughly 50% of the population is made up of men, so there’s really no need to exclude them from sewing adventures.

I’ve rounded up some sewing projects with men in mind. Make these as a gift to yourself, for dad, or for a boyfriend. Whatever excuse you need in order to sew one of these patterns is fine. What with Father’s Day, graduation parties, and birthdays coming up, chances are you don’t need to dig too deep for a reason to try out these awesome patterns.

I’ll start us out with a staple for many men: boxers. A fundamental part of a man’s daily life, the boxer has also made its way into women’s pajama collections because of their extreme comfiness. (Ergo, if you’re a lady reading this who has no one to gift these to, just make them for yourself.) Getting down to brass tacks though, these Boxer Shorts a serious money saver. If you’re looking to penny pinch then making your own boxers is one way you can. Have you seen prices for men’s boxers lately? They’re out of control. These shorts will keep you and your wallet happy.

 Boxer Shorts

I decided to go straight to the source to find another boxer pattern and found these instructions on How to Sew a Pair of Boxer Shorts from Man Made. Now you have two options for this totally necessary piece of clothing.

 How to Sew a Pair of Boxer Shorts

Moving on to more masculine accessories is, you guessed it, this Men’s Wallet. It doesn’t get more manly than this, does it? Learn how to sew a wallet from these simple instructions. This is a great project because, again, it’s a money saver. Even basic wallets can rank around 100 clams at the department store. Dropping that much dough on something that sits in a pocket all day is malarkey. Sew a wallet that appeals to your tastes with this easy project.

 Men's Wallet

It’s time to add some dignity to the coffee cozy. If you’re going to make one, make it look manly. After all, your coffee cozy is your fierce protector braving the scalding hot temperatures of your morning Joe. Give it the look it deserves by crafting this Manly Coffee Cozy. You won’t find butterflies or flowers in this pattern. Consider gifting this to dad this Father’s Day. It’s a simple sewing project and will make dad feel tough as nails when he steps outside with his new-found sidekick, the coffee cozy.

 Manly Coffee Cozy

I saved the toughest for last. The Club Jacket is oh, so beautiful, yet requires careful attention while sewing. This is an advanced sewing project, friends. Don’t be deterred from making it, though! The instructions for this pattern are very accessible. I’d certainly say that stepping up your sewing game is worth a fitted jacket that looks as good as this one. You or your loved one shouldn’t be contained to small, medium, and large sizes only. Create a fit that is customized for you or a lucky man by sewing it up with this project.

 Club Jacket

Remember, Father’s Day is coming up. If you’re looking for more manly designs, find them here.

Be a Man: Jewelry Designs with a Masculine Look

April 26, 2013 by AllFreeJewelryMaking Leave a Comment

Man does this jewelry look good. I’m not one to genderize much, but there’s something about these pieces that screams, “Manly!” With Father’s Day on the horizon, I got to thinking about unexpected gift ideas for dad. Then it occurred to me that he would never wear homemade jewelry. He’s just not that kind of person, but I am…

I’ve selected projects from AllFreeJewelryMaking and from around the blogosphere to aid you in your manly endeavors. Whether your dad wears bracelets, your boyfriend likes to browse through your jewelry box, or you just prefer masculine accessories, these do-it-yourself jewelry designs will hopefully aid you in your journey to manhood.

Manly Jewelry Designs Anyone Can Handle

Personally I wouldn’t mind seeing this particular DIY ring on a fella’s hand or my own. Its simplicity is straightforward and attractive. This ring hides nothing. As one who likes their rings like their men (eh-hem, honest), I highly suggest trying to learn How to Make a Simple Silver Ring. If you don’t want to keep this for yourself, at least you’ll brush up on your metalwork skills in the jewelry-making process.

How to Make a Simple Silver Ring

Think about making these DIY Cufflinks for those collar-and-tie men who also like to accessorize. When I saw this project on AllFreeJewelryMaking I was immediately struck. You can reuse some bolts and screws around your house and make these recyclable cufflinks. It will be an excuse to craft because, let’s face it, somebody at home has to watch the waste. What’s more, this project holds much more versatility than you may think. If you’re a trendy trailblazer, don’t make these cufflinks for your brother; make them for yourself!

DIY Cufflinks

I came across this Paracord Bracelet from Modern Jewelry. This is a strong bracelet reinforced with braided cords. I love the way this bracelet looks. I also happen to love the amazing video tutorial that shows you how to make this handmade bracelet.

Paracord Bracelet

Yet another pair of cufflinks. I just think they’re an under-appreciated piece of jewelry. While these Lego Cufflinks from Instructables aren’t necessarily manly, they certainly are boyish. I think I’ll make a pair for myself- that is for my 12-year-old cousin. In all seriousness, though, I think a lot of men would more than likely be drawn to these cufflinks. Keep them in mind as a possible homemade gift for a friend.

Lego Cufflinks

This last featured project is for the tough guys (or girls) out there. Learn how to make a necklace from this Personalized Dog Tag Necklace Tutorial. You can inscribe these tags with your name or a special message. These can easily be sentimental gifts for loved ones as well.

Personalzied Dog Tag Necklace

I know there are so many more “manly” jewelry designs to explore, but after all, a good man’s jewelry design is hard to find. Hopefully you’ve gleaned some ideas as far as DIY gifts go for yourself or a friend. Check out our site for ideas on men and women’s jewelry designs.
