Any other ideas for a daughter's present to her Dad? -------------------- Dee Dee , Mommy to: Ashley Marie 9/05/02 Joshua Lee 2/03/00 (Our Angel in Heaven)

Do you have a link for the personalized ties, I think this would be super for Father's Day.

Happy Spring! Group: Administrators Posts: 27,473 Member No.: 2 Joined: 8-February 03	I personally like all these ideas, but he's still a hard one to do something like this for. He doesn't like anything on his keychain as he doesn't want it to "scratch" his car -- he is very particular about his car (and all his electronics too) We've done the personalized mouse pad, calendar, photo book, t-shirt, photo collage in a frame, etc. Most of our meetings are via conference calls these days, so he seldom wears a tie anymore. Although I still really like this idea. -------------------- Dee Dee , Mommy to: Ashley Marie 9/05/02 Joshua Lee 2/03/00 (Our Angel in Heaven)

Here you go! Stephen has several of these (he wears ties every day) and gets lots of compliments on them.

See, this is our problem too. It is just too hard to do personalized gifts for Ryan.
