What’s even better is that you can easily send your gift with our free delivery services. Just add to cart, pay, and send. Now, have a look at our rundown of sweet deals for that special man in your family:

 

1. Animal Planters

 

Your dad may also be a doting fur parent. Or he could be into cultivating cute little succulents. Whatever he may be between the two, animal planters would make lovely gifts. 

Bring out his “wild side” with our collection of coco coir creatures. There’s our dinosaur trio, the prickly hedgehog, and even a nosy rhino. Or you can choose from the puppy planters with a selection of breeds from a cute corgi to a playful poodle. From aerial “pets” such as a hummingbird hanging planter to an ocean pal like our wicker whale planter, there’s a whole animal kingdom for you to choose from.

 

2. Accessories

 

 

Fatherhood is a responsibility. Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to fill the shoes of a loving and responsible parent. Fatherhood is not gender-specific. Some dads can be mothers or children who lost a husband or a dad. It can be grandparents, trusted friends, or adoptive parents.

For moms, aunts, dads, and other father figures with feminine preferences, you can gift them with a selection of sustainable accessories. From hand-loomed clutches to unique handcrafted jewelry, these are statement pieces designed to delight. Made with natural palm fibers, mother-of-pearl, and semi-precious stones, these accessories exude elegance. Crafted by master artisans from ten different communities in the Philippines, these pieces show impeccable quality.

 

3. Modern baskets

 

Is your dad into home organization? Some fathers can be master homemakers. They can be the jack of all trades that can fix almost everything in the house. In this case, our modern baskets could be the perfect gift you can give.

Made with natural fibers like abaca, rattan, and seagrass, these functional yet stylish baskets can be used for a variety of purposes. Tabletop baskets can serve as catch-alls for keys and thingamajigs. They can even be used as planters that sit prettily on desks, atop shelves, or clustered together on sideboards. There are also fruit baskets that can display your dad’s latest harvest (whether from his backyard or the grocers). 

 

 

Floor baskets would be perfect for him to use as a hamper or to stash his magazine collection. Of course, it could also be home to his favorite plant baby as an indoor planter. If he’s into decorating, why not surprise him with a set of beautiful wall baskets? Round or scalloped, these natural handmade pieces are sure to be stunning additions to any wall.

 

4. Coasters

 

Another gift idea would be coasters. Gift him with a sophisticated set of mother-of-pearl coasters as a classy holder for his favorite drink. Whether it’s a hot mug of single-origin coffee or a glass of martini (shaken, not stirred), these coasters will make him feel extra special.

If he’s more of a local Indiana Jones, our selection of natural coasters will do the trick. Made with abaca or raffia fibers, or from sturdy acacia wood, these handcrafted coasters give that homey, natural vibe to any home.

 

5. Natural Placemats

 

Placemats can be an all-around gift to anyone who loves to dine and entertain. If your dad or father figure loves his tableware, then our natural placemats are sure winners.

Liven up any table with handwoven abaca or raffia placemats. These can be mixed and matched with other modern table elements to bring a touch of nature to any tablescape.

 

6. Sustainable Dinnerware

 

Speaking of dining, sustainable dinnerware is also the rage. Help Dad dress up his kitchen or table with these eco-friendly pieces.

He can chop his favorite steak or veggies on a durable acacia wood chopping board. A selection of cheeses looks even more delectable on a wooden cheese board (or a rabbit-shaped one). Serving appetizers and snacks are made more scrumptious when on a handmade acacia compartmentalized platter.

Aside from that, you can also gift him with a set of wooden dishes, utensils, and serving plates. 

 

7. Ornaments

 

What do you get a dad who seems to have everything? Why, you can get him cute little ornaments just to brighten up his day. 

Spruce up his study with a puppy ornament beside your framed photo. Or how about a set of bunny ornaments that he can hang over his fireplace (to remind him you– his original baby bunny)? There’s also a wildlife trio of an elephant, heron, and penguin that he can display in his favorite nook.

 

 

Father’s Day may only be a day in a year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t give your dad a gift just because. Sometimes, simple surprises delight even more. So go ahead, make every day Father’s Day for your dad or father figure with gifts from the Likha collection.
