So I wanted to share with you some of the more questionable gifts I’ve bought for my husband, Kevin, over the years, but I was afraid that might make you dismiss this post entirely, and that would be a mistake, because there are some real gems in here. Not the sparkly kind, of course, because guys don’t usually go for that. But, you know. some solid ideas. Because the guys in your life, the husbands and dads and brothers, are notoriously impossible to shop for, and usually fall into one of the following categories:
1. The Underwhelmed: Nothing you buy impresses him. Nothing.
2. The Impatient: When he sees something he likes, he buys it. Even if it’s the week before Christmas!
3. The Unhelpful: He doesn’t want anything. Or need anything. So… you’re pretty much on your own.
I’ve done a lot of digging, and polled friends, clients, and random strangers at Target, to come up with this list of fairly-foolproof ideas. (I say fairly, because there’s always that one guy…)
(As always, click on the pictures to shop. They’re linked for your convenience.)
