It’s that time of the year…gifts, buying, lists, wrapping and the list goes on. Sometimes buying for “Him” can be a hard one, I know…I’ve been there done that! With my dad, my brother, brother in law and now husband! If they need a tool, they go buy it. If they need a new shirt for an event we go buy it. If they need a new gadget they go buy it. You know how it goes…they make it hard on us ladies!
So whether you are looking for a Christmas gift, Anniversary, Wedding, Birthday or Just because for a husband, father, brother, brother in law, nephew or whoever the “him” is hopefully this list will help you out!
1- Men’s Watch This is one of my favorite gifts to give because it’s one of my favorite things to get! I love watches. You can never have to many watches in my opinion! You can go casual, dressy or even athletic. My husband likes unique things and I found a wood watch with Jord Watches! I actually let him help pick this one out this year and we LOVE it! It’s super unique, tailored to fit him (as in we sent them measurements!!)…it’s just perfect! It’s a Zebrawood and Maple watch! He’s itching to get it and wear it but guess what…I had to take pictures but he’s getting it wrapped up under the tree!! Am I cruel or what?
Be sure to read to the end for the GIVEAWAY on a watch!
2- Leather Bag Our first year we were married I bought him a handmade leather messenger bag for work. He was shocked and still to this day uses it everyday for work. It’s classy, unique and he says he gets compliments on it quite often!
3- Book Find a book that they wouldn’t naturally buy or gravitate to. Maybe a “how-to” book, a self help book, biography or fiction. My husband loves to read and keeps an on going list in his amazon cart which makes it easy, but sometimes I like to get him something he’s never seen and isn’t even on his Wish List!
4- Gift Card This may not sound so unique but everyone loves a gift card that they can spend when and where they want! Is there something he’s been saving up for? Is there a place you know he loves but never goes to?
5- Let’s go! Create a date night or something he has to go do. This can be fun and “outside of the box”. Think of things you like doing together or something he enjoys but wouldn’t usually take the time or spend the money on. Adventure is always memorable and will be remembered longer than a shirt or tie!
