Father’s Day gift ideas & another chance to win $500

Disclosure: My Father’s Day eBay collections were curated as part of my collaboration with eBay. And that’s way okay because now I have some great ideas lined up for my dad. And Nathan. #eBayMom #FollowItFindIt

I swear I was just talking about Mother’s Day gift ideas and here it is nearly Father’s Day. This year Father’s Day takes place on June 15th, which is going to arrive before you I know it. That means I better start coming up with some fantastic Father’s Day gift ideas ASAP.

If it’s like any other Father’s Day (or birthday or Christmas), the list is heavy on barbecue gear for my dad and filled with electronics for Nathan.

Because the Interweb is a plethora of Father’s Day gift ideas—and I’m not one to DIY anything—I went with one of my favorite ways to pick and choose the perfect gifts for Dad: eBay Collections. I had a great time curating two collections, one inspired by Dad and one perfect for Dad.

And yes, there’s a difference. Feel free to read the collection descriptions to discover what that is.

Here’s a collection of Father’s Day gifts inspired by my dad. Man, we had some good times with those UNO cards.

And here’s a collection of gifts I’d absolutely LOVE to give my dad for Father’s Day. He’d especially enjoy the hammock now he’s only a few weeks away from retirement.
