The Procrastinators Father’s Day Gift Guide 2013

Father’s Day is less than a week away!  If you’ve yet to get something for those special dads in your life, it’s not too late if you act now. Though any man would be thrilled with tickets to a sporting event or concert, a gift card to his favorite store or free time to go fishing or golfing, here are some other, more unique ways to spread the love:

The Chef: If your guy is glued to the tv watching cooking shows he’ll appreciate a Williams-Sonoma Cooking Class. See availability at williams-sonoma.com. Sign him up for a grilling, cooking techniques or specialty menu class, taught in your area by talented chefs and culinary experts . Hopefully, my husband Eric skips today’s post…this is what the kids and I have in store for him.

The Sentimentalist: For a one-of-a-kind piece of art that he’ll truly treasure forever, gift him with a personalized museum quality archival pigment print, the Custom Print Collage Heart, from $35 at minted.com. Or, be inspired by this idea and make your own version with a glue stick and the perfect photos.

The Metrosexual: If you’ve ever caught your guy using your grooming products, surprise him with his own stash. Aveda Men Pure-Formance Grooming Essentials Kit, $32.50 at aveda.com contains shampoo, conditioner, grooming clay and aftershave, all sized right for travel. He’ll love the rich, spicy, refreshing scent as much as you do.

The Wanderer: Win win situation–the Scratch Map, $24 at uncommongoods.com looks cool on the wall and makes it easy for him to keep track of his travels.

The Workaholic: If he’s burning the candle at both ends, get him the Hanging Hammock Sky Swing Chair, $84.99 at overstock.com because he more than deserves a little R&R.
