Cool, Creative Father's Day Gift Ideas

NEW LIST OF 58 FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS

Father's Day is coming up fast - on June 18th. I realized I hadn't put together a list of products from my Zazzle stores that make great gifts for dads. So, I organized this collection of 58 ideas:

Favorite Fathers Day and Dad Birthday Gifts
by MK Hess Creative

As it says on the collection page, this list includes unique gifts for all kinds of dads. Themes include sailing, beer, classy monograms, travel, history, fishing, outer space, man caves, photo templates, and a variety of cool phone cases.

These designs are offered on a wider selection of products than the collection shows, too. If you see something you like but want it on a different product or need help customizing, "contact the designer" on one of the product pages - or let me know here - and I'd be happy to help.

You can also check out this list I made last year.
Or this list of gift ideas for men.

Don't forget to check out these Father's Day cards, too.

Have a happy Father's Day!

Pretty Christmas Themed Designs

PRETTY CHRISTMAS DESIGNS ON ZAZZLE

When it comes to Christmas, I'm more likely to make funny designs. But lately, I've been adding some more pretty ones to the FancyCelebration store and thought I'd show you some of them here.

I really like how this new snowflake pattern turned out. Here it is on a Christmas tree skirt:

And a Christmas stocking with a personalized name:

Pretty Colorful Snowflake Christmas Pattern Custom Small Christmas Stocking

See it on a lot more items here, including wrapping paper and lots, lots more. You can even use it as a background for your photos or text.

I also like the way this collage pattern turned out. It has a gingerbread man, reindeer, snowman, tree, mistletoe, candy canes and stars and snowflakes, all on a pretty green striped background. Here's the wrapping paper:

And here's a cute pillow:

These invitations turned out well. They have a modern, neon tree on them and plenty of room on front and back to add your party details:

You can also find this tree on cards, postcards and stamps here.
I had fun making this vintage-style Christmas typography design. It says, "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year." Here it is on a pretty photo card and an ornament.

There are the Christmas beer bottle labels for homebrewers, which I've already shown here. Here's one of them. Customize with your photo, your name, the name of your brew and the year. Click here to see all four.

Original, Personalized Christmas Gift Idea: Coaster Sets

COASTER SETS IN THE FANCYCELEBRATION STORE

The FancyCelebration store now has eight customizable bar and kitchen sets! This time last year, it only had one. Last winter, with the help of family, I compiled a list of themes to base them around. Naturally, with a brewer in the family, beer shows up a lot (saloon, brewery, pub, the man cave one also has beer). The list expanded to include what you see below: the diner, disco, poker room and cabin. There are still plenty more on the list, so I hope to update next year with all the new sets!

I have a lot of fun making these and enjoy seeing the sets come together. If you're looking for a personalized Christmas gift that's one-of-a-kind, I hope you find one you like. The ones that have sold have gotten nice reviews.

Make Your Own, Personalized Coaster Sets in the FancyCelebration Store

This is just a small sample of what's available. If you'd like to see the complete sets, click here. There are clocks, other coaster styles, wall posters, bottle openers, personalized beer labels and a lot more.

Irish Pub Customizable Home Bar Products on Zazzle

NEW IRISH PUB DESIGN WITH YOUR NAME ON IT

Last fall, I made a line of saloon-themed products on Zazzle, and they've proven popular - especially the cork coasters. So, I decided to make a whole series. That way, you can outfit your home bar with whatever theme you'd like. I'll probably be adding new themes here and there throughout the rest of the year. In honor of Saint Patrick's Day, I just finished this Irish Pub theme:

Personalized Irish Pub Home Bar Products on Zazzle

I started with the coaster (the image in the lower left) and then created matching items. Going clockwise from the coaster, this image shows a stein / mug, a clock, a hat, a wall poster, playing cards, a pillow and a t-shirt. There are plenty more matching items available in the FancyCelebration store here.

If you want to add a personal touch with an Irish theme, or if you know someone with a home bar or man cave, this design is very easy to personalize - just fill in the fields provided on each product page. And, as usual, don't forget to check Zazzle's coupon promo page to get a better discount.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
