Gift Basket Ideas for Men
Here are some great gift basket ideas for men. Lets face it. Gift baskets aren't usually marketed towards guys. But, don't let that stop you. With a little bit of creativity you can give him the manliest gift basket ever.
The Vessel
Alright, if you want to make your own man basket, you're going to need to start out with a vessel of some sort. Now, it's not well known, but, as it turns out, guy's don't really like baskets. They seem fragile and feminine, and don't serve many purposes. So, I recommend getting a little creative, and try out something like this Galvanized Metal Bucket, or similar manly vessel. You never know when you'll need a bucket! It's sturdy, functional, and cheaper than one of those wicker picnic baskets. You can fill it out with wood shavings for an extra masculine touch.
The Car Basket
OK, now we get to figure out what type of man crap is best to fill out the "basket". If the guy you're making this for has a car, consider a car-care basket. This Kit to the right will save you the trouble of having to meticulously pick out items at Wall-Mart, while some guy stares at you from the deer hunting aisle.
The Shaving Basket
The words "hair care" and "men" rarely find themselves in the same sentence. But, guys love shaving. I mean, you use a blade to do it! Fill your basket with the "Art of Shaving" kit, and he'll be looking oh so very dapper. Also, if he is over 40, consider throwing in a nose hair clipper... Those come in handy.
The Golfer's Basket
This is one of the classic gift basket ideas for men. If your male likes golf, there are options a plenty for making the ultimate golf basket. I like this golf tool by Swiss Army, but other options to include are: - Golf Balls
- Tees
- Golf Glove
- Beer
- Sun Screen
- Golfer's GPS, etc...
Here are some good Golfing Accessories to browse.
The Booze Basket
Whether he likes his martini shaken or stirred, dirty or dry, he'll get his rocks off with... I'm sorry, I'm not sure where that sentence was going. Lets move on. The Booze basket will get him mixing you Cosmos every night. (Is that sexist?) Throw in some good gin, rye whiskey, vermouth, and bitters, and you may never see him sober again.
The Gentleman's Basket
The Gentleman's basket is sort of an abstract concept. But, if you've ever seen the show Mad Men, you probably know what I'm talking about. Consider things like: - Cuff Links
- Tie Clip
- Tie
- Cologne
- Executive Pen, etc...
