Handmade For Men

Lots of guys will be celebrating a birthday, Father's Day, graduation, or weddings this season - so the question of what to get them for a gift will be coming up for many of us. It seems like the more technology progresses the more it can seem impossible to find the perfect gift for the wonderful men in our lives... but I've got a great idea to share with you! The man who has it all simply needs a gift that's one-of-a-kind! This is a great way to celebrate his individuality and spoil him with something made by hand - while also adding your support to a growing artisan industry.


Etsy is a great place to search for men's handmade gifts. They have a men's section where they feature a variety of neat items every day... see it here. Etsy allows artisans and small shops from around the world to show off their handmade goods, and you might be surprised at just how many things there are for the guys! From shaving supplies and hats to screen printed t-shirts and novelties, Etsy is one of my favorite go-to places for all of the guys on my list.

Local farmer's markets, craft fairs, and trade events are another fun place to find great unique gifts for guys. You can support a local artisan and small business while getting a gift that will wow him!

Handmade Men is another great site where you can see themed collections, gift guides, and other fun features focusing on handmade items for men. This site curates products and shops from across the web so it's a really nice one-stop-shop to connect with lots of neat stores and artists.


Make gift giving for guys a fun experience this year! Go handmade, one-of-a-kind, or even vintage and give him something with meaning and memory!
