My husband is always so hard to shop for. He doesn't need clothes, he doesn't need electronics, he doesn't need much at all.

His newest hobby is his vintage hearse. Yep I said hearse. LOL!

So there really isn't much to shop for him for.

Do you have any ideas?

Any magazines he'd enjoy?

Men can be really tough. there aren't any fallback gifts like for women (like Bath and Body Works stuff).

Hearse, huh? Fascinating!!

My husbnad AND my dad are the WORST. My husband has very expensive hobbies which I know NOTHING about... firearms and my dad has absolutely everything. LOL

This year though, my husband has taken up a new hobby... cigars. He doesn't smoke them regularly, just here and there and you would not believe how much there is to know about them. YIKES. It's worse than wine. SO, while I was in Italy we went to this inlayed wood working factory/store. I got him a beautiful, hand made humidor for his cigars. I'm so excited... finally, the perfect gift... as long as he doesn't ask me how much I payed for it. LOL

That is hard. My dh is SO hard to buy for. I honestly have no clue yet what I'm going to get him...sigh. My fil, we get restaurant gift certificates every year. Yeah, I know...kinda boring, *shrug*. I have no imagination in this department.

My dad is a tough one, and has a birthday two weeks before christmas just to make life even more enjoyable! NOT! well at least if you have to shop for him that is!

Though he absolutely loves honey, so I have got a selection of honeys for him this year for birthday and christmas well I am cheating and just giving him a calendar, handmade by me with photos of his grand girls on!

Husband well he just has expensive tastes, and usually decides just before christmas to go and get the one thing I have already got him, after listening for clues for months! He has done it to me every birthday and christmas since I have known him.

Motorbike parts are usually on my dh's wish lists, so if your hubby is restoring his hearse that could be an idea, just ask him for a list of parts etc and where to find the dang things from and choose from there.
