Awesome DIY Projects For Men Your Boyfriend Will Love

Men love DIY projects. I almost want to call it instinctual, because so many guys really just can't get enough of cool things to make. To be fair, there are a lot of awesome things both men and women can enjoy making on their own out there.

Some projects save money. Other projects just add style to your home. No matter what kind of DIY-er your man is, these promise to be the coolest DIY projects for men to try out.

Not all DIY projects for men will include a trip to Home Depot. One of the better project ideas out there is to splurge a bit with a kit that allows you to make a delicious whiskey infusion you and your crew can drink.

This Whiskey Infusion Kit from UncommonGoods allows you to create your own flavored liquor. It'll taste so good, you'll think you're enjoying a tipple on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.

Comic Book Coasters

What man doesn't dig comics? Every guy has his own list of Marvel superheroes he adores. Now, you can get some awesomely geeky coasters without actually having to resort to buying them at bloated prices.

Making these cool Comic Book Coasters is easily one of the most entertaining DIY projects for men and women that dig fandoms. Better still, it's a good project for people who are just beginning to get into crafting.

Most men love a good slice of cheese; and in Italy, cheesemaking is a serious business. That's why one of the more culinary DIY projects for men with a penchant for good food is cheesemaking. This kit allows you to learn how to make cheese like they do in Sicily.

Of course, you can also learn how to make queso fresco online — if you're on a budget, or just want a quick project to impress a lady in the kitchen.

Concrete Fire Pit

The only thing that can be more manly a project than a leather drinking flask, is a concrete fire pit. That being said, most people hear the words "concrete" or "fire pit," and automatically assume that it's going to be a project that's too difficult, and too expensive for them to make.

This guide for a Concrete Fire Pit makes it possible to make a luxury-look fire pit that costs under $50 to make — even if you're new to DIY.

Silver Cap Shoes

ZZ Top was right when they claimed that "every girl's crazy about a sharp dressed man." However, going beyond standard job interview gear can get really pricey, really quick — even if you're a naturally dapper guy who enjoys splurging once in a while.

That's why this simple guide to making Silver Cap Shoes is so badass and why it's one of the best DIY projects for men who love to stay stylish regardless of budget.

Gentleman's Survival Kit

No, we're not talking about a kit that will help him survive a bad date. We're talking about something that's a bit woodsy, and may also involve whiskey — all presented beautifully enough to be an amazing DIY gift.

This Gentleman's Survival Kit guide tells you how to make one of the coolest DIY crafts for your guy, or for yourself. This pack comes with a whiskey flask, an axe, and some other goods, all put in an old briefcase worth being part of your man cave's home decor.

What guy doesn't love a good ol' glass of Guinness? While you might not be able to narrow down the formula for Guinness on your own, learning to get into homebrew may prove to be a great hobby.

For those who are just getting into the idea of making their own beer, this Irish Stout Brewing Kit from Uncommon Goods may be a great way to try it out — minus the typical guesswork.

DIY Deodorant

Guys, we love you, but sometimes, you stink — literally. If you're going on a hot date, you can't just go out there and reek of BO and sweaty socks. Deodorant is a must!

This guide to making DIY Deodorant might be one of the more useful DIY projects for men who love to work up a sweat in the gym.

DIY Beard Oil

Beards are a lot like hair, bros. If you don't take care of it, your beard will end up looking pretty terrible. That's why beard oil is a popular accessory, and why it's being sold in so many luxury shaving stores.

This quick guide for DIY beard oil makes for an easy project that will help your man look his best and smell his best. That's why it's one of the better DIY projects for men with facial hair.

Men love spicy foods, especially if they can dare their friends to eat something and win a bet that way. This DIY Hot Sauce Kit from Uncommon Goods will allow you to make your own devilishly spicy brew — and possibly find a new wing sauce recipe to enjoy, too.

Book Safe

If we're going to talk about classic DIY projects for men, we might as well talk about book safes. These are the books you can have in your man cave, and use to store important trinkets (or weed) with ease.

It's easy to do, and making a couple is a good weekend project for guys who want to bond. You really only need to get a knife and a thick leather book you don't want to read anymore to do it, too. You can learn how to make a sturdy book safe here.

With all the cool stuff you can make, you'll need a lot of safes to keep goodies locked up. So, have fun with it!
