June Is The Month That We Celebrate The Men In Our Lives. It could be the groom, the groomsmen or, of course, the father … anyone from
the first-timers to the experts. We all expect to fire up the grill, let the man of the hour cook up some burgers and then gift him the traditional tie, grilling utensils or T-shirt emblazoned with his favorite team. Today, more than ever, you can find something unique and special for these guys, even if it’s a new take on an old gift.
Finding the unusual can be tricky, and finding high-quality unusual items can seem impossible. I have to admit, though, I think I have cracked the code this time. The shops represented here are going out of their way to supply great stuff for great men. Locally and/or responsibly made. Re-purposed and re-vitalized. And I have to say it, just downright cool. Maybe instead of a new spatula for the grill, it’s a travel bag of all the drink-making utensils he could ever need. Or perhaps a crocheted tie? That’s definitely different.
A vintage tie pin, locally made shaving cream or some Grenadine for a mixed drink … these are just a few of the unusual gifts to think about this year – perfect for that one-of-a-kind of man in your life!
