Alternative Experience Gifts for Him in Sydney

Alternative Experience Gifts for Him in Sydney


By Sarah Hinds-Friedl

Find the perfect gifts for men in Sydney for every type of personality. Whether he prefers tinkering around the house, arranging flowers or making homemade chocolate, there are plenty of thoughtful and unexpected gift options out there waiting to be discovered. Get creative and show him how much you care with a gift that truly speaks to his personality!

With mindful, unique gift experiences, you can give your friend, boyfriend, husband, or father something that he’ll enjoy so much more than anything you could have bought online or from a retail store. Here are some alternative experience gifts for every kind of man in your life.

For the creative man

Drawing

Alright, there’s a little bit of creativity in everyone but what kind of alternative gifts can you get for the men in your life who are most comfortable behind an easel or a camera? Well, a painting or photography class would be the perfect gift card for him to express himself through art and ignite his artistic spark!

Or sign him up for something unexpected with a drawing and perspective workshop, where he can learn how to capture landscapes with a pencil. Not only would he be learning a new skill but this could turn out to be a whole new hobby he'll love to do in the future.

For the fashionable man

Sewing and embroidery

Whether he would admit it or not, you probably know a man in your life who puts thought and care into his wardrobe and style. Maybe he wears only the best cologne or he’s got a great collection of graphic t-shirts and fashionable sneakers. You can draw on those passions by signing him up for classes where he can create his own signature accessories. In a screen printing workshop, he could print his own designs on a t-shirt. Or, you can sign him up for an embroidery workshop so that he can put his own unique design onto his bag or t-shirt.

Who knows? These experience gifts for men could be the start of his very own fashion line! And you would be the one who started it all.

For the man who is always tinkering

Kintsugi

If you know a man who spends all of his free time tinkering with the car or looking for things to fix around the house, it can be hard to find the right gift. Do you go with the unoriginal toolbox set that he probably already has? Maybe a toolbelt? A gift card to his favourite home improvement store? No! We can think of a few experience gift ideas that will be right up his alley. He’ll love them, and he would never have thought of them himself.

Consider, for instance, signing him up for a beginner’s Kintsugi workshop. In these fun classes, the man in your life will get the chance to use those precision skills to practice the ancient Japanese art of mending broken pottery. By the end of the class, he’ll walk away with a piece of art that he can proudly display in his home. Another option to get that tinkering man out of his comfort zone could be a weaving workshop. Did you know that weaving was a predominantly male profession in the Middle Ages? It’s true! And it’s about time that we give our male friends and loved ones the opportunity to pick up the loom again.

Kintsugi

For the food-loving man

Cooking classes

The food classes that men routinely get signed up for usually have to do with meat-grilling or whiskey tasting or some other stereotypically male endeavour. This year, it’s time to forget tradition and sign him up for something that will surprise and delight him more than another BBQ class ever could. If you know a health-conscious man who could benefit from more vegetables in his diet, why not sign him up for a vegetarian cooking class? Even if he’s not fully vegetarian, he’ll still enjoy learning the basics of gourmet veggie-based cooking. Before, he might have never thought of cooking with ingredients like beetroot and quinoa, but after he uses his experience vouchers, he’ll be inviting over his friends and family to try his plant-based creations.

Or, maybe you’re looking for experience gift ideas for the tea connoisseurs in your life. With a wellness tea blending workshop, he’ll be able to design his own signature tea blend. Not only will he think of this special workshop every time that he sits down for tea but you also might be able to enjoy his wonderful blend. If he’ll share with you, that is!

For the musical man

Is there a man in your life who is just full of rhythm but has never signed himself up for a music class? Maybe he sings in the car or dances in the supermarket or tells you all the time that he wished he had learned to play guitar when he was young. Well, lucky for him, there are plenty of music-related gifts for men available on our platform. No matter his musical talent, there are classes that he’ll love, even if he never would have signed up on his own.

A Latin dance class, for instance, can be a great gift if you’re looking for fun things to do in Sydney for couples. Once he gets started, he’ll be dancing around the house in no time! And it’s not just dance classes that make for interesting alternative experience gifts. You can sign him up for a saxophone for beginners class to help him explore his inner musician. Maybe he never would have seen himself onstage at an open mic but with these experience gifts for men, anything is possible.
