When it comes to gift giving for the guy, it can all feel so generic. Button downs, watch, etc., which are all great — and trust me, I gift that to my husband! — but I love finding something special that someone either wanted and wouldn’t spend the money on (even if it’s $30) or a personal keepsake distinctive from everything else out there. This gift guide is a great mix of both. You’ve likely seen that I’m a huge Etsy fan and it’s because there are so many finds you’d never see at the big shops, and plus, I love knowing I’m also shopping from small local businesses and artisans. For example, the passport holder below — check out the rest of this leather shop. Obsessed.
Ok, so anyway, I digress. Beyond these, think about experiences… that’s what he would love best, and this goes for your guy, your dad, your bro or anyone else! Tickets to a sporting event, a show, or even a movie you’d normally never see (and smile the whole way through!). Do a cooking class, enjoy massages and an afternoon at the spa, go to the range or join him at a museum he’s been wanting to check out.
