Awesome ideas to impress Dad this Father's Day

Father's Day is just around the corner so it’s time to start thinking about the perfect gift for Dad. There’s no need to do the same old thing every year – we’ve rounded up some great Father's Day ideas that are a little bit different and a little bit impressive. From fun things to make through to great places to shop, these Father's Day gifts are sure to please! 

One way you can make Dad feel extra special this year is to give him a gift that’s made just for him. With a little bit of thought, a dash of your time and a sprinkle of creativity, you can make sure this is one great day he’ll never forget!  Try some of these DIY Father's Day gifts: 

  • If your Dad has a sweet tooth you can show him the love by making him a big batch of gooey, chocolatey, caramel crunch brownies. Get the recipe from Bakerella - and make them a bit extra special by putting them in a pastry box that’s tied with a ribbon
  • If your Dad is a bit of a foodie, some extra special infused oil will be sure to go down a treat. Just add your flavour ingredient to the bottom of a nice bottle (think chillies, basil, lemon zest, peeled garlic gloves or rosemary sprigs). Top with some good quality olive oil, seal and store in a cool dark place for 1 – 2 weeks before presenting it to Dad! 
  • Another great gift for Dad is some home made rosemary and mint shaving cream (and you’ll find most of the ingredients at your local health food store). Grab a small pot, set it over a low heat and add 1/3 cup each of virgin coconut oil and shea butter. Stir until just melted then remove from the heat and transfer to a heat-resistant bowl. Now add in ¼ cup of jojoba or sweet almond oil, 10 drops of rosemary essential oil and 5 drops of peppermint essential oil and stir to mix, then pop into the fridge. Once the mixture has solidified, whip it up using a mixer until it’s light and fluffy then spoon into a nice gift jar that has a secure lid. Dad will absolutely love the fragrance and texture of his new shaving cream

If you’re not really into DIY but you want a gift that’s not going to break the bank AND will be perfect for Dad then get in early at Catch of the Day. Here you’ll find loads of gift ideas like personalised mugs, T-shirts and watches. For something a bit different, check out the Holden Collectors Sisal Dart Board or the Justwood Colorado wooden watch. 

Yellow Octopus is another online site with plenty of fun ideas for Father's Day. We love the Don’t be a Prick Cactus Mug, the Sagaform Club Whiskey Decanter and the Micro Herbs Window Sill Planter Box Grow Kit. 

According to Manflower Co, you can buy happiness through the gift of beer, and if you sign up you’ll also get free shipping on your first order. This is a super-cool website with loads of great gift ideas for Dad (yes they do all include beer but the gift sets also include other stuff you can choose from such as food, t-shirts and beanies). And as an extra bonus, Manflower Co are throwing in a free Father's Day card, bottle opener and voucher with every order (the voucher is for you to customise with anything else you are treating Dad to this year). 

Sometimes though the best thing you can do for Dad is to treat him to an awesome lunch or dinner. This doesn’t have to cost a fortune – instead of battling the crowds at a busy (and expensive) restaurant, why not cook Dad up a super awesome meal at home. Delish has a list of 53 amazing dinners, any one of which will leave him feeling loved (and very full!). Don’t forget to check out the Easy Chicken Parm Burger (apparently it’s idiot-proof) and the Beer Can Burger (you really do only use the can so you can drink the beer while dinner cooks). 

If you’re looking for something totally awesome for Dad this year though (maybe its that new titanium mountain bike, an upgrade to his man cave or a tropical break away somewhere), we can lend a helping hand to help make it happen. Just check out our fast cash loans from $1K - $5K to see how quick and easy it is to get your hands on some extra funds. Once a loan is approved, we can usually deposit the cash into your bank account within a few hours - so you can start organising that amazing gift for Dad in the next few days!
