Customize a gift by adding his name or initials.
When shopping for your husband's gift, customize the gift by personalizing it with his initials, names or sentimental text from you to him. Some gifts are more suitable for customizing than others. Before you select the gift, make sure it is something he wants, as some personalized gifts are more difficult to return than other gifts.
Travel
Customize your husband's luggage by giving him personalized luggage tags made from leather or metal. Give him personalized tags for his camera case, briefcase, computer case and golf bags. If luggage or a new carrying case is on the gift list, look for ones that offer personalization directly on the case. For his passport, get him a personalized passbook cover, which is a suitable gift for an upcoming trip abroad.
Jewelry
When buying your husband a piece of jewelry as a gift, look for something you can personalize with his initials, name or a sentimental inscription. Tuck a private message on the inside of a ring, identification bracelet or watch. Give him an initial tie clip or cuff links. Give him a place to put his accessories, such as a small decorative box embellished with an engraved tag bearing his name or initials.
Interests
Consider your husband's interests when selecting a personalized gift. If he loves to barbecue, make him a personalized grilling apron. For the husband with a home bar, give him customized shot glasses, beer steins, a martini set or bar glasses, engraved with his initials or surname. The husband who loves soaking in his hot tub may appreciate a plush spa towel or robe, personalized with his initials.
Genealogy
If you've been researching your husband's family tree and you have the information stored on a genealogy software program, use that information to create a personalized family tree poster to frame and hang in his study. Many genealogy programs allow you to print family tree posters directly on your computer or to send the information to an online printer.
Shadow Box
Make him a homemade personalized gift by assembling a shadow box to display some of his prized mementos and awards. Show off his high school track ribbons, awards from work, photographs, and sentimental keepsakes and trinkets. Make a theme for the shadow box by focusing on one topic, such as your husband's fishing trips or other adventures. It might even be a shadow box that captures memories from your honeymoon.
