Whether it’s his birthday, an anniversary, or just because, your hubby deserves an occasional gift or treat that will knock his socks off and remind him of how much you love him. A happy marriage thrives with thoughtful gift-giving and acts of service scattered sporadically throughout the year and around holidays. Consider personalized gifts for him to make any occasion extra special. If you’re looking for something to give your husband for a special occasion and you’re at a loss, here are some gift ideas he will absolutely adore.
1. Pull at his heartstrings with a photo book.
One of the best things you can buy for your husband for the next gift-giving occasion is a customized photo book full of photographs of the two of you. This could be a book of wedding photos, a photo album of some of your favorite memories, or you could even set up a session with a professional photographer to get some updated shots to include in the book. Professional photo books are some of the best gifts because they never go out of style and they won’t get worn out or break easily, either. Plus you can snuggle up with a photo book and remember some of your most romantic memories together.
2. Buy him a new “toy” for his hobby.
Whether your husband is into hunting, gaming, woodworking, crocheting, or mixology, there’s likely something on his mind that could make his hobby more fun. Be observant and do some research so that you can buy him something new that will either enrich or expand his hobby. This might mean a gun accessory, a new video game, a set of tools, new yarn, or a bottle of nice liqueur.
3. Go for a classic “coupon book” of date nights.
This gift is a classic for a reason. Making your own coupon book of date night ideas is a sweet and thoughtful idea that will also encourage some quality time spent together. Some coupons could be an afternoon ice cream, you running an errand for him, or breakfast in bed. Be strategic and play to your audience here!
4. Gift him something special for his grooming routine.
These days, it’s far more common for men to take care of themselves and put some time and money into their grooming. Consider gifting your husband something nice for his grooming routine, such as a beard straightener comb. If your husband has facial hair, you are both not strangers to the amount of time it can take to perfect a beard. Beard combs, beard oils, blow dryers, and other tools can all be used to achieve a tamed, shiny look. Adding a beard straightener to his regimen will give him beautiful straight beard hair that is easy to manage and looks handsome, too.
5. Put together a night with his guys.
Nothing is more thoughtful than planning out someone’s special night for them. Surprise him with a DIY poker night, an afternoon of cigars on a rented boat, or another fun activity with his guy friends. Your husband may be too busy to put together something on his own, so by doing the hard work of planning for him, you are treating him to a stress-free day with some of the people he loves most—besides you of course!
6. Make him something from scratch.
A handmade gift may be a really good thing to gift your hubby. Whether you’re a natural-born artist or a bit of a novice, he will appreciate anything you make for him and will likely treat even a homemade card as a work of art. Be thoughtful and think of both what you’re good at and what might mean the most to him and create a gift based on those ideas.
