1. Toolbox

There are even magnetic drawer plates to keep small tools in place in a large drawer. What serious DIY enthusiast wouldn’t love those?
2. Gift Cards
Tools can be expensive, and often large purchases can extend far beyond your meager gift-giving budget. Don’t fret! Instead, contact some friends or family members and encourage them to purchase a gift card to a local storefront you know your DIYer loves shopping at. You never know how far those gift cards can stretch during a sale.
3. Geek Gadgets
Yes, there are geek gadgets your DIYer doesn’t have yet. That can include banded clamps, centipede braces, and slim channel locks. There are also clamp jigs, gorilla grippers, and handheld drivers. Imagine how geeked out your do-it-yourselfer would become over any of these gadgets.

From woodworking, mechanical skills, metalwork or glass blowing, you can find a wide variety of publications that can help any do-it-yourselfer improve their skills. There are also gift boxes that send out electrical tools, craftsman or artisan kits and bathtub winemaking ingredients.
Finding a gift for any do-it-yourselfer doesn’t have to drive you crazy. Use the four ideas listed above to begin your search. From there, let your imagination go wild.
