sheryl Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Interested in a "practical" gift for dh that will display a Scripture verse. He won't wear this on a T-shirt or cap. It really needs to be something for around the house. Not a framed print. Something he can use that will have that verse. What about a lumbar pillow? Mouse pad - LOL! There seems to be limited ideas. At least on my part! 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheryl Posted September 3, 2021 Author Share Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) Bowl (cereal, soup, snack) Coffee mug OK, just thought of personalized cotton afghan/throw (not fleece but cotton). He loves to wrap up in a throw as I keep the house on the cool side. LOL! Edited September 3, 2021 by sheryl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris in VA Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) I would think a water bottle would be perfect. How about a yeti that you put the verse on with a decal? Do you know anyone with a cricut machine? Or do you have one? Eta Here's an example of an Etsy shop that will engrave a Yeti for you . https://www.etsy.com/il-en/listing/634668545/30oz-custom-engraved-yeti-tumbler-vacuum?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=yeti+tumbler+personalized&ref=sr_gallery-1-2&tr_rank=2&organic_search_click=1&bes=1 Edited September 3, 2021 by Chris in VA 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercyA Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 A coaster, if he uses them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Would you use just the first part of the verse (one version would have that as 'The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD') or the entire verse? If the former, an engraved leather bookmark like this. Does he like to cook? An engraved cutting board like this. Regards, Kareni 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-rap Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 A paper weight? I think I've seen ones on Etsy where they can personalize them with a photo and verse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Back again... Or a personalized key chain like this or this. Regards, Kareni 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do use coasters and will keep that in mind for another gift but I'm wanting to find something that is mostly for him. Thanks!

Regards, Kareni These are all excellent. Interestingly enough he needed a pocketknife last weekend. I will research this to look at different sizes etc and consider a devotional. We have a lot of Bibles but another one is always good too in another translation! BTW, I ordered the BOWL! THANKS TO YOU! 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
