Style Report: Don't Buy Dad a Tie!

We've got some better ideas for Dad this Father's Day! Progressive and fresh looks for him or his man cave, these eco-friendly upcycled gift ideas will rock his world~ and he won't secretly roll his eyes and sigh. These three collections were put together on Polyvore where you can create collections of all the things you love~ kind of like Pinterest, but you can pin lots of things and then put them together like a collage! All of these fantastic products are available on Etsy and all but one came from our team of Upcyclers! I love the idea of giving something handmade and unique~ Don't you?
