We Take the Cake & Layer Cake Wines – Renowned winemaker, Jayson Woodbridge’s grandfather always used to say, “Never pass up a good layer cake.” You first saw us mention We Take the Cake back in our Mother’s Day guide where we raved about their cupcakes. This time around, we’re here to talk about their partnership with Layer Cake Wines for the pair made in heaven…award winning chocolate layer cake and Layer Cake’s international wines! What a great way to let that recent grad or favorite dad celebrate their special day…let them have their cake and drink it too 
Through the end of June, We Take the Cake is offering a 15% on their chocolate layer cakes.
Duck Bill Money Clip - Is your dad’s wallet looking a little worn? Did you know that money in a clip in your front pocket is safer than a wallet in the rear pocket? Why not upgrade dad to a Duck Bill Money Clip? Not only can it hold a lot of *stuff* (who knew men carried so much junk in their wallets?!?), but it’s also stylish and practical. And lucky for you, it comes in a sleek, stainless giftbox. Oh yeah, and we’ll be giving one away later this week so be sure to register for your chance to win.
vTech Cordless Phone #LS6225-2 – We were in desperate need of a new phone here at ConstantChatter. Our old vTech cordless (and we do mean old – #5825) kept going through batteries like the were going out of style and we were going nuts trying to keep it satisfied – to say nothing of the fact we’d lose our charge mid-way through our calls. Then along came our new and improved vTech cordless system…oh.my.god! Who knew a gal could be so in love with a phone. It’s so much thinner than our old model, it has caller ID, you can use either a voicemail system or the built-in answering system, it has a handset intercom, it has various calling options (for those of us that must dial 1+ 10 digits), and my favorite thing…it has voicemail alerts on both the handset AND the phone base! And it’s expandable. We also love that the base rings independently of the handsets, so you can keep the volume down on the handsets, but still hear the phone ring. Really, the only thing lacking is the ability to use a headset. This phone be a great gift for the new grad finally getting his or her own place or to upgrade dad’s old school model.
iHome iP41 – Unless you’ve been living under a rock you know about iHome and their amazing, iPod-ready stereo systems. They carry everything from home stereo systems, to computer speakers and portable systems. The office favorite is the new Rotating Alarm Clock for iPhone & iPod (iP41). The cool thing that makes this alarm clock so special…it’s designed to take advantage of the iPhone and iPod variable aspect screen. What does that mean for you? Well, you can flip this alarm clock on its side to watch your videos widescreen and the clock display with adjust to match. Totally cool. The other iHome product we’ve been eying…the Syncing/Charging iPhone/iPod Computer Speakers (iP71). Replace those old computer speakers that you’ve had for years AND cut down on the clutter. You can sync and charge your iPod/iPhone and listen to your favorite music while at work, all in one easy system. Yes, we’re drooling now.
Artimus Art - Your little one has been busy in school making plenty of beautiful artwork for dad. Why not find a way to organize, feature and preserved those works of art for a lifetime. Artimus allows you to publish the artwork into bound books and allows you to share the artwork online (a great way to share their works of art with the grandparents, aunts and uncles). Artimus can take any two dimensional artwork, even those oversized pieces and publish them into a bound book. As the school year is coming to a close, this would be a perfect time to compile all the artwork from throughout the year, get it all published to a book and print a copy just for dad.
BBQ Vivabox - Okay, we know we’re generalizing here, but for the most part, what dad doesn’t like to grill out? We have the perfect gift…the BBQ Vivabox. The BBQ Vivabox includes samples of three yummy rubs (Kansas City Classic, Cajun Street, Chicago Steak & Chop), and a gift card that the recipient then chooses to cash in the rest of their gift with either specific Omaha Steaks packages or Urban Accents gift sets. It’s a perfect gift for dad. It’s more personal that just a giftcard and it let’s get what he wants. For the grad, they also have wine, gourmet to your door, spa massage, spa beauty, tea, coffee or fragrance boxes available – anything and everything you could imagine. For the Dad & Grad holiday season, they’re offering 25% off the BBQ and Wine boxes.
WildCharge – Are you a multi-Blackberry or multi-iPhone family? Do you frequently fight over the charger in the evening? Then you must check out the WildCharge. This is just an amazing product that really helps to streamline those electronic cords. It’s a new adapter that enables a wide range of mobile phones to charge wire-free on their unique charging pad. In fact, you can place as many compatible mobile devices as can fit on the pad and charge away without plugging in. My favorite part, you can whittle down that stash of power cords to just ONE since only the charging pad itself plugs in. What dad wouldn’t love to be able to easily charge his phone without plugging in? And did we mention that he’d have bragging rights since buzz about the WildCharge is just getting started.
That Should Be on a Pillow – Are you looking for something unique for your favorite dad or grad? What about taking dad’s favorite line and put it on a pillow? How about something along the lines of “Go ask your mother,” “If you’re on time, you’re late,” or “Go Lakers.” You know it, you name it, they can put it on a pillow. You pick what you want it to say and what it looks like, they’re totally customizable. The pillows can be designed to compliment his office, boat or study. And for the recent grad, you can design the pillows to match their alma mater or sorority. Definitely something a little different.
Scribble on Walls – The new grad is finally out on their own and in their own place. All they need now is to decorate the place and bring in a little pizazz. Let’s help our grads personalize their space (home or office) with something a little more hip and fun than boring old paint. Instead, let’s bring in a little wall art with self-adhesive, removable designs from from Scribble on Walls. They’ve got everything from flowers, tribal art, cartoons and well, motivational words or sayings. Here at the ConstantChatter offices, we have “live, love, dream, believe” on our walls to keep us focused. Not only can you pick our your designs, you can also pick out the color…so no boring black here. They can also do custom art or sayings. What a fun way for a recent grad to personalize their space.
Green Dude by Diaper Dude - What do you get for new dad that gives him some style and yet is still functional for taking care of baby? How about one of Diaper Dude’s new eco-friendly diaper bags for dad? It is made of recycled PET material (plastic water bottles) rewoven into durable polyester. The Green Dude, aptly named for both its color and echo friendly materials, contains a large compartment to hold those essentials needed for a day out with your little and a bonus compartment just for dad. Also contains a padded changing pad, an insulated bottle holder, removable cell phone holder, breathable mesh padding for a comfortable fit and our ever popular dad check list screen printed under the front flap. We love that it gives dad his own bag with his own style, just what your favorite new dad needs.
