Back by popular request! Gabe is rounding 15 gift guide ideas for the all the gentlemen. Especially the ones that are hard to buy for!
- Retractable pencils + clip – Never loose a pencil while completing projects. This heavy duty mechanical pencil set includes a retractable wire clip to ensure it’s never left behind, and makes a great low priced stocking stuffer.
- Laser Level Stand – My favorite gift from last Christmas! It allows me to quickly secure a laser level up 12 feet from the floor. It’s revolutionized the way I hang a gallery wall, hang curtain rods, install moulding, hang doors, and a myriad of other projects. This is the Laser Level I would recommend if he needs one of those as well.
- Digital Laser Measuring Tape – A next level measuring tool that combines a laser distance meter with an easy to read digital readout tape measure in one device. It even has a modes to calculate not just distance, but area and volume.
- Holiday Socks – Unlike kids, grown men love a good pair of socks, and since I hate buying socks for myself, I depend on these little babies every year.
- Flannel Lined Canvas Jacket – Stylish, sturdy, mid-weight, and very reasonably priced! Anna got this for me and I wear it often. Dare I say, I think she likes it too. Must make me look like a handsome rugged Hallmark character. Wink wink.
- Moccasin Slippers – Most men won’t buy a pair of warm moccs for themselves, but every man will appreciate the comfort they give. I even have a second “project pair” for dirty work in the house.
- Calpak Travel Tote –
- Fitbit Inspire Health Tracker – This is the most reasonably priced and dependable fitness tracker I have found that doesn’t require a second mortgage. Tracks your sleep and stress patterns, heart rate, oxygen levels, fitness activity, etc. A great alternative to an oura ring.
- Vintage Record Player – Music simply sounds better played on a vinyl, especially music from the glory days. We use ours so much I have replacement needles in bulk! This would be a fun gift idea from the kids to their pop, including the classic Charlie Brown Christmas album (a favorite around here!)/
- Tile Wallet Finder – I have a terrible time keeping track of my wallet because I hate bulky things in my pockets. I tend to set it down in the most absent minded spots possible! If you know someone who may do the same, this sweet little gadget will ensure they won’t loose their wallet for good;)
- Lord of the Rings Risk – One of our family’s favorite games. It takes the game of Risk and gives it a faster paced and fun new twist. I high recommend it for any board game fan, especially a strategy game fan.
- Leather gloves – Keep his phalanges warm with a good pair of leather gloves, and in the car he can pretend to be a professional driver to his passenger princess.
- LOTR Middle Earth Drinking Glass – LOTR is my favorite piece of literature. These glasses take the actual Toklien maps of Middle Earth and place it in your hand in beautiful etched glass.
- Nespresso machine + frother set – We have loved this easy espresso maker for the busy coffee lover that doesn’t have the bandwidth to be a coffee professional! One button, 5 star espresso. Comes with the frother we use and love as well to take your coffee up a notch.
- The Best Coffee At Home – This would be a fun gift on the other hand is for the coffee lover who wants to be a coffee sommelier or the guy who just likes to read about it and dream (me!).
