Gifts For Boyfriend

The edit runs from beer to bafflement. Miller High Life, Coors Banquet and a Lone Star in a Red Cowboy Hat handle the bar corner, and Shiner at Gruene Hall covers anyone with a dance hall story. The weirdcore shelf is where it gets strange in a good way: Creation of Sonic, the Taco Bell Arnolfini Wedding, a Gerber Big Mac. Music runs deep — Willie Nelson's mugshot, Freddie at Live Aid, Cowboy Bowie, The Judy's Moo Cassette. There's Jack Nicholson from The Shining and School of Rock painted like an old master. College towns get the Trinity River TCU print and Austin Forever. And if he mainly wants to laugh, there's Banana Guns, Cowboy with a Baguette at Night, Cowboy Mac and Cheese and the Loser Blue Ribbon.

Questions

What size for a guy who has never hung anything? 18x24, above a desk or a dresser. Big enough to look deliberate, small enough that two nails and no help will do it.

He's 24, not 54 — will this read like a dad gift? No, as long as you skip the framed-landscape instinct. Go to the weirdcore and fan art: Jiff Raccoon, the Neon Raccoon Dr Pepper print, Skeleton Highwayman. Those are the ones that get photographed and sent to the group chat.

What if I genuinely don't know his taste? Buy his geography or his team. Welcome to Oklahoma, Trinity River TCU, Howdy Print | Game Day Orange or the Tom Landry Quote beat a punchline you're guessing at.

Do they come framed? They ship unframed, which keeps the cost down and lets him choose. Black frame for the fan art, natural wood for the cowboys.

Still circling? Wall art for guys is the wide net, man cave decor is the narrow one, and if he's still in school, Texas dorm room decor has already done the thinking for you.
