Father’s Day is coming right up, and there’s still time to come up with a thoughtful gift. Not sure what to give Dad this year? The right gift might not be in any stores this time, as you can make it yourself with any of these DIY ideas by Good Housekeeping, and some projects can involve the whole family.

Scrollable Picture Frame

No matter how many pictures you might have on your Instagram account, it’s still nice to have a few favorites framed and on display around the house. This DIY frame design by Small Stuff Counts lets you display and flip through pictures just like you’re scrolling through an album, and you can easily switch out whatever photos you have in the frame to update it for each season, holiday, or special occasion. To make this display, you’ll need simple wooden frame, a dark backdrop, and two hooks to hand your photos.

Wood Slice Coasters

Does Dad ever forget to use a coaster? Everybody could use a gentle reminder, and you can really say it with love with these homemade wooden coasters by That’s What Che Said. Thin log slices are the perfect shape and size for a rustic look, and you can personalize each coaster with some stencil work or wood stain. While you could cut your own log slices if you really want to do every step yourself, you can also skip the power tools and go with store-bought, pre-cut wood slices. They’re available at many hobby stores and large supermarkets.

For the Grill

Father’s Day arrives right as grilling season really gets into gear, and when it’s time to bring the cooking outdoors, you can help Dad set up his station with a creatively curated cookout kit like this one by Jacquelyn Clark. You’ll need a sturdy case or caddy to carry everything, with enough room for essentials like the spatula, grill brush, and tongs. Containers of seasonings and sauces would also be great additions, as well as his beverage of choice. If you know your dad’s favorite seasonings or spice blends, you could also pre-fill a few small jars, seal them tightly, and label them so that he always has his go-to flavors at the ready. You can even add an extra touch of love with a personalized spatula, and the whole family can get involved with decorating this essential grilling tool with this tutorial by Skip To My Lou.
