Give Dad a Sign (that he’s The Man)
May 29th
Whether it’s Father’s Day or any other occasion, Dads always want a sign they are loved & understood!
I came across a very cool site, StationBay.com, that has a huge selection of awesome tin signs (like the large selection of mini clocks I found recently). Because Father’s Day is around the corner, I wanted to highlight some tin signs that Dad would be proud to display (and it’s a very reasonably-priced gift!):

StationBay.com has many, many more kinds of signs – sports, motorcycles, cars, outdoors, humor, and more. You’ll definitely be able to find a sign for whatever kind of Dad you have!
Dad, not into signs? Maybe he’d enjoy a beer gift or a wine gift?

I’ve given a few people eBay gift certificates/gift cards as presents. But, I’m still not sure that it was a great idea or not. What do you think?

Help Them Keep Time With Style

I have to say – this is one of my favorite gift ideas so far. Favorite primarily because this company, Miniclock.com, has an incredible selection of small, miniature clocks!
Because it is time-consuming to add images and links into a blog post, I cannot do Miniclocks.com justice with the few mini clocks highlighted below. These aren’t even necessarily the coolest or most-interesting clocks, it’s just that I was overwhelmed with all of the choices.
