Are flowers a good gift for him?

I've been thinking a bit about this. Is it a good idea to give flowers to men? Men give flowers to women all the time, and women like it. But what about a woman giving flowers to a man to tell him how she feels about him?

Good question. I think it's pretty fair to say that 10 or 20 years ago the answer would have to have been no. Men were men and there were no metrosexuals. The word didn't even exist and men didn't care so much about their appearance, or perhaps their decor or other things that are more traditionally the province of women.

However men are supposed to be more in touch with their feminine side, and it may well be that a gift of a rose to a man is now a fine gift for a sensitive man.

Make sure you know your man though. There are men who'd love a rose or 12 as a gift, and some who wouldn't. And the best person to make that judgement is you. You know him better than anyone else probably.

Perhaps he's the sort of man who loves a good spa, or manicure, or mudbath or facial. He'll probably love a bunch of flowers. Some wouldn't. But then there's women who don't like flowers too.

I have even read recently that there have been surveys done on this and that the result, surprisingly, is that around 70% of men would appreciate a gift of flowers. That figure surprised me, if I had to nominate a figure I'd have thought it would be a minority. There you are, the modern man has made great strides in the last 10 or 20 years.

I've been asked about personalized party favors for a man.

So you're holding a party for him. Perhaps a graduation party, or a retirement party or a birthday party. And it's a party where some party favors would be in order.

I've been asked about what I'd suggest for party favors for a mans party.

Now as you know if you've been reading for a while I love personalized gifts. I just think there's something special about personalizing a gift. It makes for a gift that has some special meaning just for him.

So as I was looking at party favors I decided to see what I could find in the way of personalized party favors as well.

I succeeded. You can find party favors of all kinds on the net, including fine personalized favors too. I found a site that is called Plum Drama with a range of personalized party favors that would suit a party for a guy.

Now of course not all parties for a man are the type of party where you need party favors on hand, but when you do then I'm all in favor of personalized ones myself. Read more
