Five Star Gift Ideas

For your dad's birthday, it sounds like a thoughtful and meaningful gift would be something related to his interests in 96 and upcycling. Here are a few ideas that might appeal to him:

1. Upcycled Furniture: If your dad enjoys upcycling, he may appreciate a unique piece of furniture that has been repurposed or refurbished. Look for local artisans or online marketplaces that offer upcycled furniture. You could choose a piece that aligns with his tastes and also fits well in his home.

2. Upcycling Workshop: Consider gifting your dad a workshop or class focused on upcycling and DIY. Check if there are any local organizations or community centers that offer workshops where he can learn new techniques and connect with like-minded individuals. This would not only expand his knowledge but also provide him with a fun and educational experience.

3. Subscription to a Sustainable DIY Box: There are subscription boxes available that focus on upcycling and sustainability. These boxes typically provide DIY projects using materials that would otherwise go to waste. Subscribing your dad to one of these boxes would give him a regular supply of projects and inspiration to continue his passion for upcycling.

4. Customized Upcycled Accessories: Find a local artisan who specializes in upcycling and has experience creating unique accessories such as jewelry, wallets, or bags. You could have a custom piece made specifically for your dad, incorporating elements from his favorite show, 96, or any other personal touch that he would appreciate.

5. 96 Memorabilia: If your dad is a fan of the show 96, consider gifting him memorabilia related to it. You could look for limited edition items, autographed merchandise, or even commissioned artwork inspired by the show. This would be a great way to combine his love for 96 with his passion for upcycling.

6. Upcycled Vinyl Records: If your dad enjoys listening to music, he might appreciate vinyl records that have been upcycled into unique home decor or functional items. Some artisans create clocks, bowls, or even guitar picks from old vinyl records. This would be a thoughtful and creative gift that aligns with his interests.

Remember, the most important thing is to show your dad that you know and appreciate his interests. By choosing a gift related to 96 and upcycling, you're not only acknowledging his passions but also supporting his hobbies and values.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
