Gift Guide: For the Guys

Cool GIft Ideas for Him, Boyfriend, Husband, Dad

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.

    I have never jumped for my card so fast when I saw the bottle breacher. Totally forgot about it and perfect for my retired military man. Thanks for the amazing suggestions!
