Father’s Day is approaching faster than we realize. I swear – it was just Christmas yesterday! I have been tossing around ideas for what to get hubby for Father’s Day. I do have to say that my first thought was “Things Remembered”. Why not personalize that gift to dad? Get something with meaning and add more love to that meaning! I am here to show you some great gift ideas for dad this Father’s Day.
We are all watching our spending, so here are three of my ultimate favorite things that you can get dad!
I have to say that I chose the beautiful and so elegant Silver Photo Mouse Pad. I chose to have it engraved with “The love of a family is life’s greatest blessing”. Here are some pictures of my final product. We have a picture ordered that we need to add to the mouse pad. The photo size is 5.75 X 5.75, so none of our pictures in our house fit. I think this fit just fine until we get a new one.
Silver Photo Mouse Pad
Our silver-plated mouse pad lets them keep a favorite photo close by while they work. Engrave it with a message like “you surfed your way into my heart!”
Product Features for Silver Photo Mouse Pad
Color Silver
Features Silver computer mouse pad that holds a photo
Material Silver plated steel
Photo Size 5.75″ X 5.5″
I am really considering getting hubby the Memory Stick Keychain as well. I really love this! Hubby is always toting files from work to home to work on them, so this is an excellent gift idea!
Memory Stick Key Chain
In today’s fast-moving information age, your friends need the right personalized tools to stay up to speed. And with this silver-plated USB flash drive, 1 gigabyte of data can be stored to keep their information moving. Engrave this gift with their name and phone number (in case it gets lost) and keep hundreds of their songs, photos and files in motion. As seen in CosmoGirl.com’s gift guide!
Hubby doesn’t wear suits to his job, but if he did, boy – I would definitely be getting him these beautiful Photo Cuff Links. Wear your babies on your sleeves; literally!
Photo Cuff Links
While your husband immerses himself in the business world each day, it’s important that he carries a personalized gift from you to remind him of what matters most. Since each cuff link holds one picture, include a photo of yourself and your children, and he’ll remember why he’s motivated to be both a successful father and businessman. Engrave his name, and give him this special gift.

I would have the photo engraved crystal 4×6 with a photo of him and my daughter. I honestly don’t know what I would put on the engraving, but it would definitely be something in Spanish-like Te Amo papa! (I love you dad!)

My Dad My Hero Key Chain – just “love” engraved
My dad is no longer alive but if I were to get him something it would be the heritage pocket knife. I would engrave it with his name I think that would make it unique for him.
nice!

I would choose the Memory Stick Key Chain for my husband. And I would engrave it with “Happy Father’s Day 2009 Love, Zachariah”.
I would get my dad the leather money clip wtih card holder. I guess the only engraving I would put on it are his initials. I think that would be a good father’s day gift.
I would pick the flask with black leather. I would engrave on it “Hopefully you don’t have to drink every time you think of me” I think my dad would get a good laugh.
I would choose the pocket watch for my dad. I think its a really classic gift. Its hard to pick an engraving but I guess I would say something like “Thanks for choosing to be my father” since its for my step dad and he made the decision to be a true father to me.

I would pick a keychain. DH’s never last very long, for reasons I cannot figure out, and he’s always needing a new one. I really like the Polished Gunmetal Keychain. I think I would simply have “Father’s Day 2009 (front) We Love You Lots (back)” There isn’t enough room to have everyone’s name engraved…at least I don’t think so.

I like the memory stick keychain too, I’d get Dad’s name and phone number engraved on there, thanks.
love the mousepad and would get a pic wiht a personal saying or a keychain with a personal prayer we say on it
I am absolutely in love with the idea of a personalized paperweight (Crystal Cube Paperweight #518903.) It caught my eye and I immediately smiled, thinking of my wonderful Father. He has done more for me than I could ever possibly explain. This piece of art would stand out beautifully in his office. I would love for it to show, “You are my rock – I am eternally grateful for all that you do – I love you always”
You bet I have your main button on my sidebar!!!
