From eighteen to eighty and everything in between, there are big occasions that are worth that extra special celebration. Whether they’ve just welcomed a new arrival or are celebrating their 50th, there’s a gift perfect for every milestone.
For the smaller (but equally special) celebrations like buying their first home or starting a new job, keep the gift simple and buy them a fantastic house plant. This present should last for years and will remind them of you every time they look at it – the ultimate gift! If they’re new to the world of plant parenting, consider buying them something simple like a fern or a succulent. If they’re a little bit more green-fingered, why not give them a flowering rose or an oriental lily – it will certainly brighten up their day!
Reaching the milestone birthdays can making present buying more challenging. If you’re looking for some 50th birthday gift ideas for men, why not get them some unique and personalised cufflinks or a wallet. You could finish this off with a lovely hamper stocked full of their favourite treats.
If you’re looking for a retirement gift idea, then the best gift is one that they can keep and cherish. Make this one personal and get their name and retirement date engraved on to an object such as a whiskey decanter or pen.
As the male in your life gets older, finding the perfect present can become a little bit harder - especially if you’re looking for 70th birthday gifts for him. For the perfect present you’re going to need something that is a little bit more creative and remind him of the adventures he’s had over the decades.
You’ve heard the saying ‘boys and their toys’? Most men (no matter their age) love a puzzle or a gadget. From brain teasers and board games that will keep them challenged for hours, to remote controlled cars and drones, to car gadgets, there’ll be something to help them find their inner child.
If you’re still stuck for ideas, then keep things simple and buy them a stunning bunch of flowers (flowers aren’t just for women!). Why not go for something classic and create a bouquet of roses, stock and alstromeria. Or go for a younger vibe with a mix of brightly coloured sunflowers, chrysanthemum and solidago.
Whatever you choose as a gift for him, he’ll be sure to love it.
