Love, Words, Gifts
While there may be a few exceptions, most men are ingrained with the need for words of love or words that tell them how awesome they are. We all enjoy getting compliments, but for men it seems to be more than that, they thrive on it.
I am a gift person myself. Gifts and time spent with you make me feel loved. I don't have a hard time bragging about what you got me to other people, but I have a hard time saying those things face to face. I'm working on it though. So this year, as Valentine's Day is right around the corner, I was trying to think of gifts that would SAY “I think you're great!”. I needed a gift that would speak to my husband, without going over budget or being extravagant.
I thought I would share what I found with you. Here is my list of 5 gifts under $20 that will speak love to your man.
#1 My Wife Thinks I'm Hot
This Teespring t-shirt is a Paradise Praises exclusive design and would make an awesome gift for the hard to buy for. It makes me giggle to think of my husband's reaction when he opens it and reads “My Wife Thinks I'm Hot!”. Would he wear it? I'm not sure, but it definitely communicates the message, and his reaction would SO be worth the $19.97! These were created last year, but if we get enough orders they will re-print this year too! click here to Order.
#2 P.S. I Love You
This 4″x18″ indoor/outdoor traffic sign is another great reminder. Hang it just inside the door, or the fence or on the back side of the mailbox, somewhere where he'll see it every time he leaves. $17.99 on Amazon.
#3 A Hobbit's I Love You
Is your man a Lord of the Rings fan? This mug is a perfect way to speak “I love you.” in terms he'll understand! $14.99 on Amazon.
#4 I Love You Man…
This gift will score a hole in one with your golf loving husband! This set of 3 golf balls is sure to make even the most serious golfer giggle. $12.99 on Amazon.
#5 I Love You Because DIY option
This is another one of those word gifts that keeps giving. The one pictured below is NOT under $20, but if you are a Do-It-Yourself person, you could easily create something similar from a piece of wood and chalkboard paint, or an old chalkboard you could fix up and decorate. Hang it somewhere you will both see it often. This way you can change out the words daily or weekly, giving your Love a new word to fill him up on a regular basis.
It was harder than I thought to come up with 5 gifts under $20 that specifically speak love to men. There's lots of fun stuff out there for wives and moms and grandmas and friends, but not that much for husbands. If you have other suggestions for gifts that speak love to your man, I'd love for you to share them in the comments below or in our Paradise Praises Community Facebook Group.
Don't forget the My Wife Thinks I'm Hot tee shirt is only available here! Get it soon!
