If He’s Anything Like Bill
Bill very much helped me with this list and it may actually be his Christmas list for me.
This is the year Bill became an oil painter and he has become obsessed. It’s a daily outlet for him and I really love that. This is an oil paint brand he loves and this is a great starter color set. “The gatekeeping of oil painting needs to end.” -Bill Fox
If they love to make a bon fire or to camp, this Barebones Fire Blower could be a good thing to add to his sack.
He’s a slipper guy with cold tootsies and these Sorel slide on slippers will keep him cozy all year long.
This is a very specific request but this is an anti-glare camera filter for this phone case. It’s pretty cool but also requires you to have this case hah
I am not sure where he finds his indie brands he becomes obsessed with but James Wallets are on the list. He is a big fan of this one.
I am always trying to get him to wear more sweaters and it has taken like 20 years for me to realize he will wear them if they are 100% cotton. I love this rollneck one from LL Bean.
Bill is a big Bonsai fan (I can’t explain him) and these shears have been requested. Could also be great for other indoor and outdoor plants.
If I went into his closet and counted, he probably has 15 of these poncho shirts. They are light weight and I feel like he’s their number one fan. He wears them to meetings, Home Depot or just to sit in his basement office cave.
Sharpening your kitchen knives is something we don’t do enough. This little sharpening tool can help you do it at home with various types of knives.
Bill says “any stubborn ‘I-can-do-it-myself’ type of person needs at least two of these.” They can lift heavy things on their own or with less help with these Dewalt Jacks.
If you have an artsy one in your life, a framed print of the color wheel could be a fun addition to their workspace. When you are painting, its a nice reference to figure out how to combine colors effectively.
Apparently after all these years, the man just wants some rain boots like the rest of us. This heavy duty pair is giving Maine Lobster man.
