Here are some worst gift ideas for him. If you want your boyfriend or husband running for his life, then put these items on top of your list!
1. A Thighmaster
Wondering what that is? It’s exercise equipment! I bet he would rather go to the gym rather than bring it home with him! A complete no-no when gifts are involved.
Get creative this Christmas – use ideas from 14 Best Gifts for Men…
2. Work tools
You’re husband may never do anything around the house, but don’t disappoint him this Christmas by gifting him a vacuum cleaner or a leaf blower. Where’s the fun and originality?
3. Fitting clothes
Stay away from jeans and t-shirts that don’t fit. Unless you know him THAT well, don’t buy clothes if you’re unsure of size, fabric and color. He may hate the maroon sweater that you think is ‘hot and chic’!
4. Artwork
He may smile and say thank you. Later he’ll take your ‘beautiful painting’ and make it a table top for his garage workshop! Men and artwork – rarely do they mix. So don’t punish him with modern art that he can hardly understand.
5. Crazy gift certificates
So you want him to lose weight? That’s fine, but don’t get him a gift certificate to a diet club or coaching tapes on fitness! Why remind him that he’s fat this season! Let me be. Get on his case next year!


Well, I havnt given him a frame with my picture. Hmm… that could be a nice idea. haha!
S.O.S
Girls…i really need helps now!!
I wish to send a birthday present to my cyber boyfriend…he is 30 over…what should i choose for him?? I am so puzzled!! I want to give him something special that he will remember me well!! :)
- cigars and all stuff for them.
- some cool pan or something like that
- hot sexy lingerie for yourself :)
lol..anyway..thanks!!!
Jingle jugs make a great holiday gift for all guys. I gave them out last year and they were a big hit. I just bought 10 more for this season with the same promo code. They must have forgotten to deactivate it! If you go to jinglejugs.com and type in JJTEST in the coupon code box they’re half off! Only 10 bucks! I can watch them jingle all day!
I bought one gift before- a shirt and ended up to be a wrong gift..coz the size didnt fit! Lol
Oh, sweetie… I know what you mean… Clothes are the toughest – the size, the color, the style. And the worst part is that men are not even into presents like this…
I agree with all of these except the tools. Not very romantic, but men love them and love getting them in my experience. They also love cool gadgets from Brookstone or accessories for their cars…
the presents you give your guy needs to have a lot of thought behind it. it doesn’t matter what it is.. if you’ve thought about it and you’ve got him what you believe is the best present for him then he’ll be happy with it because it was from you :)
these are all good ideas but lets get real the best gift you can get him will only take a few minutes. its kind of a Do it yor self gift. All you need is your mouth your tongue and his….. He will definitely appreciate it
Great ideas, have you ever thought about getting him his own website?

Yours is a very informative blog. Thanks for providing these wonderful content
Gifts are source of happiness to both – provider and recipient. Thanks for ideas
Happy someone made a guide like this. Got too many crappy christmas gifts already. Not fitting cloths are definatly the worst although you can return them. Your girlfriend wont like it though if you return her things
thanks!
There is an alpaca shirt that is ridiculous. I bought it as a gag gift and it was actually well liked. Sometimes the worst presents turn out to be the best ones!!! Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!!!
Hey Heigl,
Yeah! Men are strange like that :)
*shakes head* oh god.
I gifted like 3 things on this list.
Fitting Clothes, Tools, and Art Work..
I’m an amazing artist.. SO I don’t know if my art is that terrible.. but.. he loves art..
Hey Christy,
To be honest, sure there’s always a list of things NOT to give as gifts and then there’s one of gifts TO give.. But then none of that really matters if there’s no emotion/story/effort behind the gift. In your case, since it was your own piece of art, I’m sure the personal touch and the effort behind it far overweigh the general idea of not gifting art work! :)
