Ok, let's not kid ourselves here. Buying a gift for your mother, sister, aunt of best girlfriend? No problem! Jewelry, candles, soaps, scarves, handbags....the list is endless. Gifts for the kids? Piece of cake! Books, toys, games, clothes, candy...also endless. Gifts for your dad, boyfriend, uncle...um, not so much.
I Googled men's gifts and came up with an F-bomb paperweight (just like it sounds), a shiatsu heated toilet seat cover and a talking remote meat thermometer. Poor Dad!
Fortunately, with a little creative (or perhaps, less creative!) thinking, you can find something thoughtful, amusing and useful for the man/men on your gift list.
For the adventuress man in your life, how about a certificate for skydiving?
A great weekend getaway can include dinner and wine tasting in Temecula followed the next day by a jump ~ what a fun and memorable gift! Try http://www.skydive-temecula.com/ to get started.
A nice piece of art for the office or man cave is always nice and a thoughtful reminder of how much he means to you. Houston Llew Spirititles (http://www.houstonllew.com/?q=node/14) are handmade in Atlanta and carry clever and meaningful messages.
Brad Pitt took the man scarf to a whole new level in World War Z ~ he wore that thing literally, to zombie hell and back. Cashmere is a timeless take on the man scarf, both useful and unique. Keep hubby looking good and staying warm when fighting evil doers over the holidays.
And while he's at it, keep your man appropriately turned out with a beautiful and utilitarian pocket knife. A fantastic line from
http://www.santafestoneworks.com/ includes knives and money clips made (incredibly) from dinosaur bones and woolly mammoth tusks. A very classy and useful gift.
Other than flying the plane for your man to jump out of, we've done all the work so you don't have to fight zombies or excavate fossil pits to find these amazing gifts ~ we've done the work for you here at Boulevard 34.
So stop in and let us help you save Dad from being yelled at by a thermometer this season. Happy holidays to all!
