Father's Day Gift Guide (part 3)

Check out this custom leather cuff bracelet from Julie the Fish Designs! This shop is full of beautiful hand stamped custom keepsakes, great for men or women. The leather cuff bracelet caught my eye as a great gift option for Father’s Day.


Description

Perfect for a man or woman, this leather cuff bracelet is adorned with a small sterling silver tag. I will hand stamp with the name, date or word of your choice. Please choose block, script, or typewriter lettering. The sterling tag will accommodate 9 letters. If you'd like a larger silver tag to fit more writing please convo me. Please allow about 2 weeks for your custom piece to ship.

This bracelet is available in black or brown leather. It is 11/16" wide and 8 1/2" long with two snaps to fit wrist sizes up to 7.75". If the bracelet will be worn roughly, please request that the silver plate be attached with wire. If not requested it will be attached with hemp, as shown.


In the “message to seller” at Etsy checkout on the commit to buy page please mention what you'd like stamped, black/brown leather, and lettering choice. I individually hand stamp all letters. Some variation in spacing or alignment is a sign of uniqueness and charm.

Father’s Day Gift Guide (part 2)

Next up on my search for great Father’s Day gifts is Red Leaf.  Red Leaf offers hand crafted soaps, lotions, bubble bath & gift sets, and they look amazing!  I really want to order the Men’s Shaving Soap Gift Set for my husband.  One thing that I really love is that their Shave Soap Cube is made with a coconut oil base.  In my research to live a healthier lifestyle, coconut oil is one thing that I have learned a lot about!  It is such a great product for skin care!  Read about the wonderful uses of coconut oil here.  Picnik collage

Not only does Red Leaf offer the incredible looking shaving set, they also have oversized bar soap for extra sensitive skin and shampoo bars that come with a non-rust travel case.  I think any of these would make a great gift for those hard to shop for men.  And if you just can’t choose which one to get them, they have gift certificates too!  Everyone could use some soap!  Don’t get me started on the fragrance options…fresh orange, basil lime, beach or fresh clover anyone? 

No worries, ladies!  Red Leaf has great products for you too!   Head over to Red Leaf now and get your man some soap…or yourself!

Father’s Day Gift Guide

Looking for a  unique Father’s Day gift for the men in your life?  I will be posting some gift ideas from some great Etsy shops, guaranteed to make dads feel loved! 

First up, Pamela Susan Fine Jewelry and Gifts.

What dad wouldn’t want this simple keychain with the names of those who love him on it?  This would be a great gift for any dad!  They all have keys, right?

Description:

Yay! The original "dad" keychain that I introduced a couple years ago is back! This is the perfect Father's Day gift for the man in your life. This listing includes 3 names around the edge of a 3/4" nickel disc. Each name has an itsy-bitsy star in between them. Very cool, indeed.
*Do you need more than 3 names stamped? Each additional name will cost $3. Ideally, 4-5 names will fit on this disc, depending on the length of each name. If we need to, I can stamp more but will need to spiral the names around to make them fit. If you do need more than 3 names stamped go ahead and purchase this listing and I will send you a PayPal invoice to pay for the additional names.
Please leave the list of the names at checkout. Your keychain will be mailed by Tuesday, June 15.
Happy Father's Day!

Not only does this shop have awesome dad keychains, but also beautiful jewelry!  Like these inspirational rings that I love!  I might just have to get me one of these:

Father’s Day Cards

I love freebies4mom.com.  I always find great deals there and have gotten lots of free samples and even some bigger freebies.  For Christmas last year, I got 50 free photo cards with a discount that I found there.  I didn’t even pay for shipping.  We also got my in-laws a photo calendar for free using a discount code that I found there.  No shipping on that either.  Freebies4mom has definitely saved me some money on some great products!  So, you can imagine my excitement to find a discount code for 3 free Father’s Day cards from Shutterfly.  All I had to pay was $.99 shipping with the code CARDS4DAD!  You can barely buy one card for that price.  My husband and I LOVE pictures.  We love to capture memories of everything that we do.  So these photo cards were just perfect for us!  Here is one that I got for my dad using my favorite photo of us at my wedding.

Sorry the photos aren’t great.  They don’t really show the quality of the cards.  I was SO happy when I got them in the mail today.  The quality is great and I would order these again.  I think the original price is $1.99 a card and it would be worth it to me to pay that to have a personalized card. 

Freebies4mom has great directions on how to order these cards.  Visit here to get this awesome deal.  It expires Thursday, June 10th, so make sure to order before then!  If you haven’t already, check out Freebies4mom.com.  You will love it!!!
