Why DIY? Best DIY kit gift ideas

DIY is gaining popularity each and every year. Certainly, during these tough COVID times, it’s important to keep yourself busy. And DIY kits are the forerunners of that. With these amazing gift ideas, you can surprise your loved one with the perfect, homemade gift!

Food

Obviously, trying to make as many different types of food is fantastic. When you go on Buzzfeed, for example, you can find some exciting recipes to try out for yourself! From giant chicken nuggets to culinary masterpieces. You can also try to create your own little recipe with your partner as well! If it tastes bad, we’re not the reason. Evidently, some grocery stores sell food kits as well. If you want all essential ingredients in one box? Get this as a tryout! 

Table decoration

Make some cute coasters to rest your drinks upon or a beautiful tray for your plants with the House Raccoon Terrazzo DIY Kits! Experiment with different colors and discover the creativity inside of you. Ideal for entertaining yourself, even more, ideal as a DIY gift for your loved one!

(Skin)care products

Maybe not as appealing as a pre-made Kylie Jenner skincare kit, but a fun project either way. Maybe you have smelled something incredible a couple of years back, but you haven’t found that same product since? You can make your own soap at home with that specific smell! Maybe soaps don’t interest you that much, that’s okay, there are loads of different things you can make yourself. For example, perfumes, face masks and even make-up!

Clothing

How did we almost forget about clothing? We always wear it when we’re going out! Hopefully, at least. Get a plain white or black, or whatever color you’re feeling, sweater, and do some embroidery to take that clothing item to the next level. Or start completely from scratch and try to make your own new clothing item! Pants, hats, t-shirts, sweaters, hoodies, even jewelry. Everything is possible!

Wall art

Go absolutely crazy with those paintbrushes and make your own personalized wall art. An amazing alternative to trying to steal the Mona Lisa. Just get some paint, a canvas, and maybe also some crayons to create that extra depth. Maybe you can try out that TikTok painting thing. You know what I mean. Those videos where people poke holes in plastic buckets and use the pendulum effect? Maybe I’m overthinking it.

Furniture

I’ve always been a supporter of DIY furniture, from simple table designs to intricately designed lounge chairs. You can create whatever you want. Get some recycled materials like Euro pallets, for example, and start experimenting with them.
