2017 FATHER’S DAY GIFT GUIDE {inspired by my dad}

Happy Monday friends.  Did you have a great weekend?  We had a whirlwind weekend that started with a trip to Alabama for a wedding.  About 30 minutes from our destination we realized we had left the garment bag that contained my husbands suit and my dress for the wedding at home.  After a moment of panic we forged ahead and made a quick pit stop at Dillard’s to do a little shopping.  Thirty minutes later, a new dress and new digs for the hubby and all was good with the world again.

After a night of celebrating and hanging with family, we headed back home yesterday to more rain.   But today’s another day and I’m hoping for a bit of sunshine. 🙂

I have lots of fun stuff to share with you this week on the blog starting with my Father’s Day Gift Guide.  I lost my dad in 1983 and there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of and miss him.  So in honor of Father’s Day, all of the gifts I’ve included in this years gift guide are inspired by the memory of my dad. He loved to have fun, had impeccable style and always had the newest and latest gadgets.  I hope there’s a gift on my list that perfect for the special man in your life!

ONE. Wooden Fractal Puzzle.  Such a cool gift to keep dad busy and challenged for hours.  p.s.  I love the design style of this puzzle–kinda looks like a fun greek key design.

TWO.  Men’s Emergency Kit.  A great travel companion for the work or leisure travel.  This is also a great gift of a recent college grad!

THREE.  50 Life and Business Lessons from Steve Jobs.  I’ve read this book and it contains loads of wisdom to inspire dad (or anyone) in work and in life. A great read.

FOUR.  Father’s Day Shave Kit.  My hubby recently tried the Harry’s shave kit and gave the products and razor rave reviews.  He loved it so much that I’m sharing more about Harry’s in another post later this week.

FIVE.  Amazon Echo. We received one of these as a gift a couple of years ago and use it everyday.  The Echo is an amazing piece of technology.

SIX. Nylon Travel Bags.  These bags help keep everything in your suitcase organized and they also cut down on the wrinkles.  And the monogram is such a classy detail. p.s.  I want a set for me too!

Now that you’ve got your gift in mind, let’s talk gift wrap…

Father’s Day Gift Wrapping Tips:

** Instead of a traditional box, wrap you gift in a unique container like a paint can or wood box.

Paint Can Gift Wrap

**  If you can’t find a masculine themed wrapping paper, get creative and use an old shirt, a piece of fabric, kraft paper or newspaper as gift wrap to keep the gift man friendly.

Newspaper giftwrap

**  Forgo pretty ribbon and use leather cording or a tie to add the finishing touch to your gift.

Leather twine ribbon

**  Instead of a paper gift tag, use a key fob as a gift tag.

Key Ring Gift Tag

Happy gifting!

Outside the holiday season, the spring and early summer months are prime gift giving times with graduations, weddings, mother’s day, father’s day and many of my friends and family’s birthdays taking place during these months.  Shopping at the last-minute for gifts is not something I like to do so I tend to keep a stash of essential gifts on hand in my gift closet.  These are items that have universal appeal and items that can easily be paired with another piece if the occasion calls for a little something more.  Here’s a look at the items I like to gift most and always keep in my gift closet.
