Good Morning Friends, Father’s Day is this month and I did not only want to give you Father’s Day gift ideas I want to also show appreciation for the amazing men in my life and the amazing men out there in yours.
I want to start with my Dad. There are so many fond memories of my Dad but my favorite involves us camping, or going to something we call a “Rendezvous”. The “Rendezvous” is a huge gathering at Fort Bridger where you are taken back to the days of the early American settlement. Native American dancing, black powder shooting competition, teepee’s, bartering, trading and selling hand made items. It takes you back to the old west state of mind. This tradition has been a favorite, and I need to take my daughter so she can form these same memories with her Dad.
What is a Stetson Man?
So when I hear the word Stetson, I immediately think of my Dad. The strong, rugged, outdoorsman. A man that can be a tough man’s man, but still respectful to women and his family. Every time I see a bottle of cologne by Stetson or a hat, I smile because I immediately just think of my Dad.
Moving forward a few years I met my husband. What really drew me to Brandon, was how incredibly respectful he was. He was charming and chivalrous. Brandon has so many traits that my Dad has, and traits my Dad told me to look for in a man. My Dad was such a great example of what a father should be and I know I wanted things like that in my husband so he can then pass those notions on to my daughter. I am so lucky she has a great Dad and will have a similar upbringing as I did. A respectful father that is there for her dance recitals, basketball games, baseball games and whatever else she chooses to participate in.
Gift Idea
So when it comes to gift ideas Stetson Cologne pops into my mind, not only for my Dad but for my husband. They are both original and timeless much like this cologne. When I hear the word Stetson, the beautiful Stetson hat comes to mind. The symbolism of strength and individuality behind that. That is what comes into play when building a gift for someone who has had such an impact on your life. The foundation is a piece that ties you to the person. That spicy and citrus scent just sends me back to all these amazing memories I have had with my Dad. So this will be my foundation piece. You can keep it simple with the Cologne, but I usually like to add one other piece. You can add their favorite candy or snack, a hat, or my favorite a watch.
I love this cologne and if you are looking for one for the special man in your life you can enjoy a $5 offer from Stetson this Father’s Day by texting “STETSON” to 79495! You know I love saving you money where I can! Thank you, Dad, for teaching me what to look for in a real man, and thank you, Brandon, for being that man.
You can shop Stetson Cologne at your local Walgreen’s at the fragrance counter next to the cosmetics.
