A Red Envelope for Dad’s Day

I don’t do reviews. I get, on average, about 15 to 20 emails a day asking me to review some product or another. Some offering payment. Some not. I’ve rarely accepted these review opportunities because I wasn’t familiar with the company and didn’t use the product.

But that changed this week. The good folks at Red Envelope, a “unique and personalized gifts” website that I have used for the past several years (I bought two sets of these frames and some great family Christmas ornaments) contacted me about doing a product review for Father’s Day. Because of my love of the company, I agreed. And they paid me for this review.

Now that I have the nice FCC requirements out of the way, let me tell you about the cufflinks I received to review. These cufflinks are made of stainless steel and great quality but it’s the quote on them that I liked the best.  Each cuff link says, “All that I am and all that I hope to be I owe to you.” These words, inspired by a quote from Abraham Lincoln, are a great reminder to me of what fatherhood is all about.

The cuff links were shipped in a nice red box with a ribbon and were placed in its own box inside (see photos below).  If you’re looking for a great last minute Father’s Day gift, I would highly recommend Red Envelope.  And I’d say that even if they weren’t paying me.  (In fact, I think I have before!)

  1. LOVE Red Envelope! I think I lived out of their catalog for three years for gift giving. Always good stuff.

  2. I think this is one of the cutest way to give dad a father’s day present. I really don’t ever bother to wrap my father’s day presents to my dad each year because when I buy him presents, I usually ask him to go with me when I get him some presents so that I am sure that it will be something he would use and something that he wants.

  6. Always wondered about Red Envelope, but never tried it out. Amazon is always the go-to, but I may have to take a peek?
