And you know what else I love? Hanging out in my dad's garage. Always have. Even since I was little, I just like hanging out in the garage. My dad does a lot of woodwork, hot rod restoration, pissing around - I'm sure you get the general idea. But I like how it smells in the garage, and I like how relaxed my dad is when he's working on a project, I like how he explains things to me when I've got 6 million questions, and I like how he leaves me to myself so I can photograph his things.

| Welding Coat & Tools Print |
This is one of my favorite photos, it's my dad's welding coat and helmet. I added a touch of cross process green to the photo and went heavy on the vignette. I featured the print here. I've ordered prints from Zazzle and I've always been very happy. I print all my show pieces on the archival heavyweight paper. It's a touch extra, but the quality is worth it and it's pretty paper.
Same photo, but it's a magnet this time. The magnet has been really popular.
And just to mix things up a bit, here's a coffee mug featuring a photo I took of my dad's welding box. It would be a good combination gift, I think.
So, there are a couple examples of what you can find in Dad's Garage. I know Father's Day isn't until June, but there are some great items in here that would make excellent gifts for any guy for any reason. There are blank greeting cards that you can customize. You could make a birthday card for your dad, husband, brother, boyfriend...There's postcards too and matching stamps if you just want something a little manly to mail. But seriously, if you're looking for a gift for a guy, who maybe likes to hang out in garages, give my store a shot!
