I really love this men's gift guide this year. Like, I kind of want half the stuff on it. But have no fear, this entire list was husband scrutinized and approved. I hope you have the happiest time shopping for that dude in your world.

Now Win Something for HIM.
I couldn't be more excited about this giveaway, because the maker is a good friend of mine and the product is just plain excellent. All the men in my family have been using this Droolbox Twin Wallet for years, so I know from experience that it's reliant in quality and unmatched in style. The simple design consists of reclaimed cherry wood and recycled bicycle inner tube components to keep cards and cash secure. And Droolbox offers laser engraving, so when I got Stevie's, I threw his initials on there too. For funsies.

I'm excited to partner with Droolbox to give away one of these Twin Cherrywood Wallets! Follow the prompts on the Rafflecopter below to enter the giveaway!

For the Dapper Lad.

He's your guy. And you want to get him something spectacular, but... he's a guy. Which means you can hardly read his mind and you're sure that he cannot read yours. So how to surprise him with something truly wonderful?

In my experience, gift shopping for men at Christmastime is the greatest challenge. Inheriting about a zillion brothers made me acutely aware of how little I actually know about the hobbies of the opposite sex. Over the years, I've learned a bit of bro talk (okay, not really), and had a bit more insight into the dude world. It's extremely different from the fluffy feminine gifts I like to buy. However, I've come to love gift shopping for my dad(s), brothers, and of course my husband. The above items could outfit and impress a range of different kinds of men, and I know that they would be a smashing success. How? Trial and error, my friends. Trial and error. So go ahead, reap from the benefits of some tried-and-true surefire GRAND Christmas gifts that your strong, funny, manly man will absolutely love.

Happy Gifting!
