Gift Guide - The Manly Man
With Black Friday right around the corner and countless stores already having pre Black Friday sales, if you haven't started your Christmas shopping yet, well, get a move on it! Believe me you do not want to be that person fighting the crowds on Christmas Eve. You have been there, I have been there, it's a nightmare.
Over the next week or so I will be posting some of my favorite Holiday Gift Guides. Some from other blogs and shops, and maybe one or two of my own! But let's start with what I think is the most difficult stocking to stuff of them all - your Manly Man's Stocking. For me it's my boyfriend, for you it might be your dad, brother, uncle, best friend, son, any guy in your life really. So here are some creative things you can add to your man's stocking this Christmas, besides socks and underwear!
Lovely Little Snippets put together this list of 25 Manly Man stocking stuffers! Head on over and check it out!
The Life of Lulu Belle has a list of 50+ stocking stuffers for your man here, and another list of 100+ small gifts for your man here! Plus she gives ideas for themed stockings! How cute is that?
Here is a list of my 3 favorite items from the three above mentioned list, along with places to buy each item! I am going to be specific to things my boyfriend likes, so if your name is Ben and you happen to be my boyfriend don't read this! Maybe your man likes some of the same things, or hopefully it will help you branch out and think of things your man likes that you have never though about before!
1. Beer Koozie - I am getting a Mickey Koozie from Disney (they didn't have it online) but here is a link to a website with lots of funny koozies (including the one above) and oh so much more!
2. Phone Accessories -
A. Cell phone charger - The options here are endless. They have cordless ones for on the go, solar ones, DIY ones, and cool little chargers that hold your phone when you plug it into the wall so it's not just laying on the floor! Here is a link to all the Pinterest ideas when it comes to phone chargers!
B. Cell phone case - My boyfriend is a Star Wars geek, so I am considering a few different phone cases. Some from Etsy here, and some others that can be purchased at Disney Parks. What does the man you are buying for like? Best bet is to come up with a few ideas and then Google and Etsy them with "phone case" tagged onto the end!
3. Novelty Ice Trays - My boyfriend likes guns. When he saw the bullet and I guess it's a pistol ice trays? Who knows, but when he saw those ice trays at Urban Outfitters he was acting like a little kid, thought they were the coolest things ever. Here is the gun one, but they might offer more in store?
Here are some websites that have funny and random gifts for guys!
When you read all this it makes you wonder why you've had such a time finding stocking stuffers for him before! Really you just need to think of the things he likes to do, movies he love, food he likes, hobbies and you are set! Hope this helps :)
