Aren’t these lovely? The incredibly detailed wire tree sculptures by Adams Tree Sculptures are truly a sight to see. The trees begin as aluminum or copper wire on a spool and are cut, twisted, and shaped by hand. Every sculpture is made by hand by artist Randy Adams in his Vermont studio. Inspired by windblown trees the artist saw on the coast of Newfoundland in Eastern Canada, the design of the Windblown Tree Sculpture resembles coastal trees permanently bent and twisted by the ocean winds. The sculptures are available in a variety of sizes, copper or silver. View all Adams Tree Sculptures.
Other great gift ideas for the outdoorsy dad include our wall sculptures made of reclaimed barn boards and slate roofing, like the one pictured above, a recycled bike chain bottle opener, and many different Wall Plaques from Sticks shown below. Sticks offers a wide variety of plaques and other furniture to choose from, and you can also custom-order a design of your choice through our store. The Sabra Field print is a beautiful rendition of Lake Champlain with Camels Hump and the Green Mountains of Vermont in the distance. It is a framed, horizontal 11 x 19 print that measures 4 x 12.
For the Dad Who Likes to Kick Up His Feet
Let him relax, kick-back, and have an ice cold beverage.
On the Rocks Drink Chillers are made from solid granite, and leave your drink nice and cold without watering them down. Each set comes with six “rocks” in a wooden holder and two rocks glasses. Simply place in the freezer for a few hours and they’re ready to go. If you like the idea of repurposed granite, you’ll also love these one-of-a-kind Drink Dispensers made from cobblestone and other stones from the Granite State of New Hampshire. Each dispenser is made from a unique rock with its own weight, size, texture, and color. View the full collection.
