2018 Gift List for Him

I am kicking off the very first gift list of the season!! I decided to start with the hardest one…the MEN! This is always the most requested from readers because men are always so hard to shop for. I hope this helps get your creative juices rolling when shopping for the man in your life! I tried to really

Monogrammed Wooden Grill Tray – I love these trays because they are perfect for every day grilling but they are also wonderful to use as a serving piece whether it is cutting the turkey on Thanksgiving or a beef tenderloin for Christmas.

Digital Tape Measurer – My husband is always looking around for a tape measurer and I love the idea of this one being digital.

All About Dad Book – This was a top seller when I shared it for Father’s Day and I think its adorable to make and give to Daddy from the kids.

Navy Rucksack (backpack) – This item is special to me because my best friend since we were 5 years old started this company all the way over in Australia!! She met her husband on my bachelorette party and moved across the globe! Literally. I love the looks of these backpacks and they are perfect for your outdoorsy man! It has a hidden zipper to slip in your laptop plus 4 other compartments. When you click the link, the currency is shown in AUS. The US total is just over $1oo plus $15 for shipping.

12 Gauge Shot Gun Ball Marker Trio – This cute Etsy shop sells manly ball markers for the golf lovers in your family. It would make the perfect stocking stuffer too.

Grill Prep Trays – Okay, this was most definitely the #1 best seller during my Fathers Day gift guide. You guys went crazy over these. Matt has been obsessed with him and I have already stocked up with a few more to give to brothers/uncles this year. Its a great price. Red tray is for raw and black is for cooked!

Tile Cell/Key/Wallet Finder – Ohh I can’t wait to get this one for Matt this year. How many times have I heard, “where are my keys??” I love the idea that he can have one on his keys, wallet, and cell phone!

Apple AirPods – These feel like a splurge for a small item, but my brother gave them to me last year and I couldn’t love them more. They stay in my purse and I pull them out all the time.

Personalized Watercolor – We are getting ready to move in a year or so and I love the idea of having a water color painted of the house we are currently in. Matt built this house were in and I think it would be extra special.

Sprezza Box – This gift box is such a fun idea for a monthly subscription kit! The boxes are just $28 a month and includes 5-6 accessories (ties, socks, grooming products, etc.) tailored to men. It comes with stylish products from brands trying to build awareness. Each box is valued at over $100. I think this is such a fun gift idea. You can purchase just one month or a 6 month package for around $150. Use code ANNIEMALONE to get 10% off the first box of monthly subscriptions and entire store purchase

Men’s Stationary – My husband is not known for being the best at writing thank you notes, but I think it is the sweetest thing ever when a man writes a thank you note or condolences note on their own stationary. We need more of that!

Bacon of the Month Club – Where are my bacon lovers at?? Men are so hard to shop for, but this bacon of the month club that send different bacon each month would be the perfect gift that keeps on giving!!

Minimalist Wallet – This wallet is super slim and perfect for guys. How many guys do you find pulling their wallets out when they sit in the car to drive or at a restaurant. They hate sitting on a big bulky wallet. This is a great solution for them!

Alcohol Decanter Labels – We received beautiful decanters for our wedding 6 years ago and I have finally filled them with alcohol but I am always guessing what alcohol is in which decanter. I love the look of these for our bar!

Personalized Golf Balls – These are a great price and a great idea for a gift for Dads or Grandfathers. You can write a cute note on them too.

Temperature Control Ceramic Mug – I’m not sure if this is better for the men or for us Mama’s out there that can’t ever finish a hot cup of coffee!! This is a total splurge but I think its hilarious and probably would really be amazing to have.

A few extras:

Precision Batter Dispenser – Matt is the pancake maker of our household. I love this dispenser and could be perfect for making all different shape pancakes.

Amazon Echo Spot – I love this for next to our bedside table. I have this on my Christmas list the year too!!

Growler Keg with Tap – Store your carbonated beverages in this pretty growler. This personal growler is designed to keep beer, champagne, carbonated cocktails and other sparkling beverages carbonated and fresh for up to two weeks. I’d say that is pretty awesome!
