Neck and Bow Ties for Daddy’s Day

Father’s Day is coming up… and while the hot pick for dads this year is one of the fancy new e-readers, I know Greguine, after hours of sitting on his computer working every day, isn’t one to really appreciate electronic reading on his downtime.

I’ve been getting my dad ties as a gift for as long as I can remember– it’s just hard to go wrong with them! So in case you, too, are going to go with a tie for Father’s Day, here are my favorites. No, I don’t really think my own father would wear many of these preppy picks, but perhaps this will serve as a little bit of encouragement!

Golf Course Printed Tie, Vineyard Vines, $75

Tompkins Tattersall Bow Tie, J Crew, $49.50

Cotton Madras Patchwork Tie, Rugby, $79.50

Navy and Khaki Tattersall Bow Tie, High Cotton Ties, $45

Crambeck Cotton Tie, Jack Wills, $39

Flamingo Bowtie, Tommy Hilfiger, $45

Memory Boxes

I can finally post this now that Commencement is over!

As graduation gifts for my roommates, I decorated eight little wooden memory boxes:

Unfinished wooden boxes can be found in a variety of shapes and sizes at pretty much every craft store. Using leftover green paint from rooms in our apartment, I sponged the outside of them all first and then stained the inside with wood stainer. To embellish, I modpodged a photo onto each (the antique looking edges are really just from ripping the paper!), and then stamped them with various Paper Source rubber stamps (like this one).
