!: What Should I Get My Boyfriend for Christmas This Year?

The clock's ticking. And your mind's flicking: "Agh... what should I get my boyfriend for Christmas?" Hold your horses. Stay calm. Breathe. Choosing Christmas gift ideas for boyfriends is a walk in the park. No, seriously, it is.

Let's get one thing straight though. Scented candles, socks, a gift certificate for a pedicure because you think he has disgusting feet, or anything with a heart on it do not make impressive boyfriend Christmas presents.

Want to get something he'll adore? Skip the usual pitfalls (frilly teddy bear holding the giant heart, blade razors, socks, ties, blah, blah, blah), and kit him out with something personalised.

Personalised Christmas Ideas for Boyfriends

That's right. Personalised. Customised. Bespoke. Specially made, whatever you want to call it. Quite simply, these pressies feature his name and your special message on the gift you've chosen.

But you're still confused. Your brain is still whirling with the same question: "That's all very nice, but what can I get my boyfriend for Christmas?" Okay, ladies. Listen very closely, or rather, read very closely...

Engraved silver cufflinks. These really do make original, fashionable and professional Christmas ideas for boyfriends, since these cufflinks are engraved with his initials. A truly special way to add a bit of "ooh la la" to his regular shirt.

Personalised sweetie jars. These sweet jars might as well be personalised with: "eat me. I make a very yummy Christmas present for boyfriends everywhere. I'm the best way to sweeten up his Christmas." Rummaging his way through the jar, he'll find classic confectionary from yesteryear, from jelly babies and drumstick lollies, to liquorice wheels and candy whistles. Yum.

Personalised Stig Posters. So he watches the show, reads the mag... Now he can get the gear, or to be more precise, a memento.Expose your boyfriend as the Stig from Top Gear at Christmas! You can get your hands on posters in all sorts of designs and pretend he's smashed the Stig's lap time record. Get in.

Personalised Classics. Is he a booklover? As well as enhancing his love of literature, you'll also enhance his love for you when you bestow your bookworm boyfriend with a classic tale featuring him as the main character. Titles include The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Romeo & Juliet to name but a few.

Personalised Mugs. Yep.Whether he's a footie fanatic, the patriotic type, a Corrie lover, or ginger and proud, there's a whole mountain of mugs on the market, in all kinds of styles. Some can even be personalised with his favourite beverage recipe. Whether he enjoys black coffee with 2 sugars, a hot chocolate or a milky tea, he'll get it made just the way he likes it, every time. But the question is, will he have to make it, or will you?

So, what to get my boyfriend for Christmas... you know the answer, ladies. And it definitely ain't Smarties.
