Christmas is well on its way, and many people are already getting started with their gift shopping. Sometimes finding the perfect gift for the special man or men in your life can be tough to do, especially for the kind of guys who insist they already have everything they need or who go ahead and buy everything they want for themselves. To help you out this holiday season, we have put together a gift guide that features 10 unique, handmade, entirely Australian gift ideas for him.  

1. Beer Soap

Even men need to take care of their skin! If the special guy in your life is in need of some moisturizing and some minimal skin care, why not give him some all-natural beer soap?

Made by Soaps by Heather, this soap bar is free from palm oils and nuts and is made from natural colourants and essential oils. Among its organic ingredients are beer, coconut oil, olive and rice bran oils, and cinnamon leaf. This is a great way to introduce skin care into a guy’s life!

2. Saucy Spice Rub Hamper Box

For the man who loves food – and loves to cook food – the Saucy Spice Rub Hamper Box by Not Without Spice – could make the perfect Christmas gift!

This hamper contains Not Without Spice’s most popular sauces and rubs. You can choose from three different handmade sauces (Spicy Plum, Smokey BBQ, or Dad’s Favorite) to complement the three spice rubs (Beef Spice, Chicken Spice, and Lamb Spice). This is a great gift for the guy who loves to cook and has an appreciation for strong, authentic flavors.

3. Handmade Knit Wool Beanie

For the guy who loves to be in fashion as much as he loves to be outdoors, why not give a gorgeous Speckled Black Knit Wool Beanie that was skillfully handmade?

Made by Melbourne artisan SiennaKnits, this knit wool beanie is made from 85% Australian Wool, 10% acrylic, and 5% viscose. It comes in one size (large) and is hand wash only. This gift is both functional and fashionable!

4. Molten Signet Ring

This handsome piece of silver jewellery is made to order in any size. Every molten signet ring is entirely one of a kind and lovingly crafted right here in Australia by Atoll Jewellery. 

In order to retain their uniqueness, these rings are not cast from a model. Instead, every ring ordered is made from scratch. The style will remain the same but no two rings are the same. The rings are made from .925 organic silver and are approximately 12 mm wide on the top and taper down to 6 mm on the bottom. This ring is just as perfect for everyday use as it is for special occasions. 

5. Beard Balm

For the guy who cherishes his beard and wants it to look as good as it possibly can, the perfect unique Christmas gift just might be this Beard Balm made by Gatherer Forager!

 This all natural beard balm is made from ingredients specially chosen to promote hair growth and healthy skin. Ingredients include bergamot, coconut and almond oil, and hemp seed oil.

6. Classic Newsboy Cap

For the guy who loves to standout in terms of fashion, surprise him with this incredible handmade Classic Newsboy Cap made by Dreadful Leather!

This classically stylish leather newsboy cap is designed to be as practical as it is stylish and can be an incredible statement piece that will draw attention and start conversations.

7. Charming Tie Clips and Cufflinks

 Men’s fashion accessories don’t always have to be dark and boring, as you can see from Dressed for Sunday’s selection of tie clips and cufflinks!

The Musical Melody Tie Clip provides functionality by holding the tie in place and also adds a fun, playful flourish to any outfit!

8. Rainforest Lime Duet Chutney & Marmalade

This is a great Christmas gift idea for any guy who loves bold, natural flavours! The Rainforest Lime Duet is packed full of intense tartness balanced by wonderful sweetness and is handmade by Currong Comestibles. 

The chutney is great for relish on sandwiches and roasts and pairs wonderfully with cheeses. The marmalade makes a delicious spread but can also be used as a secret ingredient in baking, sauces, and cocktails!

9. Fordite and Metallic Blue Resin Pen

Good stationery is always a reliable idea for a Christmas gift, so consider one of the beautiful handmade pens by Wild Heart Woodcraft. 

The Executive Sierra – Fordite and Metallic Blue Resin pen is a luxury writing implement. It is a single barrel twist style pen that is well balanced and smooth. The unique body of this pen makes it an exquisite statement piece as well as a useful tool.
