Father's Day Gift Guide- Under $60

Happy Monday!  

I hope you had a relaxing weekend.  We certainly did, and I'm using that as inspiration for latest gift guide...

Father's Day is just around the corner so I've pulled together a few items to help the father in your life de-stress and enjoy the day.  No honey-do task or grill tools here.  Feel free to add a massage (diy for free!) to boost the relaxation level even more.  

1.Aruba Hammock: Does this even require an explanation?
2. Tommy Bahama swim shorts: This is reversible!  Lounge by the pool twice as often.
3. "Father Mows Best" Life is good T-shirt: Cute slogan for any lawn-proud dad.
4. Personalized Beer Labels and Beer Journal: Wrap the labels around his favorite brew!

Grad Gifts for Under $60

Cars painted with 2013 and balloons on mailboxes- it is Graduation season!  We will be celebrating my sister-in-law's Doctoral (!!!) degree at her graduation this weekend so I've been spending some time looking for the perfect celebratory gift.  The standard fountain pen and resume portfolio gift is a bit blah and outdated, don't you think?  If you have a special grad-to-be in your life and are still searching for an inexpensive way to say congrats, here are a few ideas...

Grad Gifts for Under $60 by sparrowathome 

1. The Young Grad:  Kindergarten or Middle School ceremony?  Yay, You! is a  cute alternative to Dr. Seuss's Oh the Places.  Throw in some Grad cookies for an extra sweet treat.

2. The Interviewing Grad: This is a modern take on a traditional leather portfolio for a resume- a professional  cover that doubles as a display stand to use your iPad in an interview.

3. The Grad On the Move:  Compass motif cuff links or necklace is a sentimental keepsake for any grad moving away for college or a new job.

4. The Grad with a New Job:  Celebrate a graduate degree with a few things for the grad's new desk- cute notepad and coffee mug will be used more than a fancy pen!
