There is nothing wrong in making a handmade gift that is something special. Especially that it's an occasion it's better than buying something and wasting your money on something that your father might not like. Try to think of things that he likes and then make it in to one thing I'm pretty sure that he's gonna like that because you spent your precious time on it and it involves all the things that he likes. ]
One word - absolutely. Sure, we generally in modern society think of young children as the ones to make gifts. But, there is no reason your age should matter at all.
I've known adults who have made gifts for all sorts of occasions. Heck, I've even done it myself.
The fact is, it's nice to buy someone something, but it's significantly more thoughtful, and of course more personal, to create something for them. And the recipient of the gift might just be touched in recognizing that fact.
Go for it! ]
There is no age limit to making a gift with your own hands. By the way, when a person gets to your dads age; there isn't much that we haven't already got that money can buy. At this point in life, as a parent speaking, it is the more thoughtful and handmade gifts that are much more meaningful and memorable. For example, I do not remember any of my Mothers day gifts over the years except for one. When my daughters collaborated to bring me breakfast in bed and each had written me a poem of how much I meant to them. It brought tears of joy to my eyes. They couldn't afford anything else and I am glad because that was the best present I have ever got from my kids. ]
