Next up on our handmade holiday gift guides, is gifts for him. Anyone out there have some hard to buy for guys in there lives? Maybe you have one of the ones that says "I don't need anything - don't buy me anything this year"... but, how fun is that? If you're like us, giving is what Christmas is all about. We love seeing the excitement of those around us and to make others feel special. With men sometimes being the hardest to surprise, we've rounded up some pretty cool gifts that will definitely impress them and be more special than that item from the hardware store! Here's what we have gathered for this year's handmade holiday gift guide for him.

 

Gifts for Him / A Handmade Holiday Gift Guide

Where to shop:

1 | Toronto Skyline from Thread & Bark. You can have one custom made of a special location of your choice, or choose from one of their many amazing designs.

2 | Do you know a badass bearded dad? Get him the perfect mug. Pop on over to Courtney's Custom Creations to grab one before they're all gone!

3 | That tie dye t shirt colour combo, or any combo for that matter, is the perfect gift for him. When you shop By Sofia's Dreams, not only do you get a great tie-dye, you'll also support a young nine years old entrepreneur.

4 | If you've got one of those picky, hard to buy for guys... not to worry. You can always grab them a Christmas Cheer card from Letters of the Forest and put a gift card or two in it. These simple cards are perfect, plus you can still support handmade when you aren't sure what he'd love.

5 | Grab some plant based artisan soap from Get Naked Soaps and he'll be helping the planet and smelling delicious all year long. Also perfect for stocking stuffers!

6 | A custom painted saw is a great addition to the man cave. Oh, and while you're picking out a design and ordering your saw, you can also slip in a custom embroidery for yourself. Don't say we didn't warn you - Homebody Handmade has something for everyone.

7 | Let's get eco friendly on you. Did you know that natural jujube cups from Siempre Eco make perfect additions to his camping gear? They are extremely lightweight, easy to carry and promote hassle-free cleaning. Also pretty stylish if you ask us, even the non camper would love one.

8 | Looking for that something comfy with a statement? Rebel King Designs has the perfect hoodie for that guy who isn't afraid to speak up for what's right. #communityovercompetition 

9 | Help him tame that beard with the Victorian Grooming beard bundle, filled will all the essentials for grooming. You definitely can't go wrong with this one.

10 |Do you have a Griswold fan in your life? Stop by Montgomery Creek Designs, and get him this funny "Home of the Jolliest..." Sign that will surely be approved of.

11 | Paper Posh Artist makes the most amazing paper cutouts (like this Adventure Awaits one). You'll be able to make it custom too - making the only tough decision what you'll choose to have made.

12 | Calling all coffee lovers. Street Brew is specialty craft roasted coffee that he'll surely love. And if you're lucky enough, you may be able to score one of their sweet mugs too 

 

We're loving so many items on this handmade holiday gift guide for him, I'm not sure we'd be able to choose just one. But that's okay, we love supporting handmade and think this is a great start.
