NCDR: Man presents.

Smallllmin

I'm getting completely overwhelmed... I still have half my xmas list to finish. Ugh.

The hardest part is the guys! (DH is pretty much done, but I still need gifts for my dad and grandfather).
And they're no help at all. When you ask them what they want, they say "nothing."
...oh ok, thanks.

What are you all getting the men in your life?
What do dads want? ...Restaurant gift cards? ...Socks? lol

Dang it. I thought this was the place to sign up for gift-wrapped men.

Clearly you know where I learned my fear of spiderflys now.

I need this for myself!
I've been trying to figure out how to get the dang stinkbugs out of the house without killing them so they don't stink!

I am getting my dad a contigo coffee mug and some artisan coffees. I also got him (and my mom) a personalized ornament with all the granddaughters names on it.

We got my parents snow removal services.  

Father-in-law is getting Gin.  Mother-in-law is getting a bottle of wine and coffee (Kona).

If I have time I'll make a photo book for both sides.

I got my grandfather a calendar with all the grandbabies pictures on it.  I love the ornament idea!

I got my dad a golf glove and a golf shirt.

I got MH a custom made knife and cutting board.

I got my brother a battery backup for his laptop or cell phone, and a travel charging station that has docks for all types of different plugs.  Okay, mh got that for my brother.  I got my brother a fleece pullover.

I got so tired of DH wanting "nothing" for Christmas that he's seriously getting nothing for Christmas this year. I'm going to get some stocking stuffers, and that's it. We agreed to do it like this b/c he hates shopping for me as much as he hates giving me ideas of things I can get him.

We're getting my BIL a pocketknife. I wanted to get him fishing stuff or a model car kit b/c they have kids and I thought either would be a fun family thing, but my SIL shot those down. He's the also the pickiest eater I have ever met, so a restaurant gift card was out. If our gift price limit had been a little higher, I would have bought him a gift card to nice movie theater so he and SIL could go catch a movie.

I got my one uncle a water bottle that tracks your water intake and a flash drive engraved with his name.

My other uncle got a zip up hoodie.

My brother got a camera, an ornament, a puzzle, and a cookie cutter.

SAK, that's beautiful! And it looks like it smells good, too.

So far we got my step brother a coffee press/coffee mug. My sisters' bf we made a fleece blanket with historical fav college team colors. We are giving my dad framed pics of M. We still have more shopping to do for some of them.

Is it weird that I find shopping for the girls and women in my life much more difficult than the guys? UO? FFMC?

Honestly, I think the women are harder too sometimes. They usually give me some sort of hint though, if I ask. They don't just say nothing lol.

So far for the men in my family I am getting fishing gear, truck floor mats, a fender cover, sports shirts, and booze. We usually make them decide on actual things they need or they get more work gloves & stuff.

Men are so hard. They either buy themselves what they want or what they want is super expensive (which is why they haven't bought it for themselves yet).

I got my husband this make your own gin kit. He likes gin and if it turns out terrible it wasn't too expensive. I also got him desk accessories in his company colours (bright pink and royal blue). I saw them and thought it was neat they were the perfect colours to match his logo/branding. He works in a shared space for start up companies so it's nice to represent your brand.

I got my dad some jazz albums on vinyl, he's been into using his turntable lately.

I got my BIL this print that reminds me of him and I had it framed. And a coffee mug that looks like a DSL camera lens (he and his wife are graphic designers and photographers).

My husband picked his dad's gift because I was done suggesting things. Whiskey stones and a whiskey decanter.

Ooooh a make your own gin kit sounds awesome!  DH and I love gin!  I think I'll look up a recipe and buy the spices myself because I'm cheap like that

TJ1979

Let me know about that @stoneycakes.  I love gin too, and haven't had any in a while.

I will.  Hopefully nap time will happen today and I'll see what ingredients I need.  I'm totally going make a DIY gin kit for DH.  I think he'll love it.
