Let’s be honest, shopping for guys on any occasion is a struggle, and the pressure is real for finding that perfect anniversary gift. You search and you search, but nothing sticks out to you, leaving you feeling like this:
But once you find that perfect gift, you’ll be feeling like this:
Your gift to your special guy doesn’t have to be a love note with a side of chocolates. These few gift ideas will make your anniversary personal and one he will never forget.
1. Customized sport shirt
Every guy has his team and what could be better than getting him a T-shirt that not only represents his team but has his last name and lucky number on the back. Guaranteed brownie points and an invite to football Sunday.
2. Mason jar filled with his favorite candy
If you’re running out of time, this is an easy DIY gift. What is sweeter than all your favorite candies placed into one jar? Let me give you the answer… NOTHING! Layer his favorite candies in a mason jar, put a red bow on it and bam!! You have a super sweet gift (literally) to give to him on that special day.
3. Wallet
So…lets talk about that raggy piece of leather he places in his back pocket filled with too many cards to count. Replace his old wallet with a new and stylish one that he’ll love.
4. Tickets to a game or concert
There is nothing more romantic than going out to a Capitals game or a really cool concert on the weekend with your significant other. Buy tickets to a game or concert that you both can enjoy!
5. Fuzzy socks
You can never go wrong with something comfy and cozy. A pair of crazy patterned socks is always a fun gift to give and receive. Something warm that he can slip on his feet at the end of a long day is something he will for sure appreciate.
6. Shot glasses
This simple and handy gift is one that he will find use for when he’s looking to liven up the night with his guys. You may not be there when he uses it, but at least he’ll take a shot for you.
7. New sweater
Want to really make his day? Get him something he would never buy himself. Most guys are not super-shoppers and don’t indulge in nice clothing. Spice up his wardrobe with a nice sweater he can wear out when he takes you out on a nice date or even just around campus.
8. Watch
Each guy has his own personal preference when it comes to watches. Which makes the idea of getting him one a bit intimidating. Don’t let that discourage you though, you know your guy, I mean you have been dating him long enough right?.. Stores like Macey’s, Nordstrom, and Dillards offer many high quality but affordable watches for every kind of guy. Put some thought into it and you’ll be able to pick one out that he will love.
Make your anniversary special and give him a gift he will want to keepsake forever, you got this ladies!
