Why Father’s Day Gift Sets Should Go Beyond the Box

You could hand him a tie. You could wrap up a gadget. But the best Father’s Day gifts aren’t the ones stacked in stores—they’re the ones that speak directly to who he is, what he gives, and how he’s loved.

At Dezire to Inspire, we believe Father’s Day gift sets should include more than items. They should include a moment, a message, and a reminder of his lasting impact.

Action-Driven Gift Set Ideas That Speak His Language

1. The "Slow Morning" Set

What to include:

  • Artisan coffee or tea
  • A favorite mug
  • A cozy blanket or slippers
  • A Dezire to Inspire encouragement card that says: “You’ve earned this pause.”

The action:
Clear the morning schedule. Let him sleep in. Serve him coffee. Give him space to breathe.

2. The "Dad & Me Memory Kit"

What to include:

  • Disposable camera or instant photos
  • Blank journal or memory book
  • His favorite treat
  • A Dezire to Inspire card tucked into the first page

The action:
Spend the day together doing small things—taking photos, jotting down laughs, retelling stories. End it by adding a shared memory to the book.

3. The “You Time” Box

What to include:

  • Noise-canceling earbuds
  • A self-care item (like lotion or beard oil)
  • A book or playlist
  • A Dezire to Inspire card with a calm message of affirmation

The action:
Encourage him to take the evening off. No responsibilities, no expectations. Just quiet time for him.

4. The “First Father’s Day” Gift Set for Dads-to-Be

What to include:

  • A baby onesie with a sweet message
  • A framed ultrasound photo or baby keepsake
  • A Dezire to Inspire card that says: “You’ve already started being the dad they’ll love forever.”

The action:
Wrap it as a surprise. Capture his reaction. Let the moment speak for itself.

Why Our Encouragement Cards Complete Every Gift Set

Every thoughtfully chosen item tells him he matters. But our Dezire to Inspire cards go one step deeper—they tell him why.

  • Paired with action – Each card adds meaning to the moment, not just words
  • Emotionally grounding – Gives him something he can hold onto beyond the gift
  • Quietly powerful – Perfect when you don’t know what to say but want to show how much you care

Slip one into your gift box, tape it to the top, or hand it to him after a shared moment. No matter how you include it, it will be what he remembers most.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the most popular gift given on Father’s Day?

Common gifts include clothing, electronics, and tools. But the most meaningful gifts? They’re the ones paired with presence and purpose—like action-driven gift sets that include a Dezire to Inspire card.

What do most men want for Father’s Day?

Most men want appreciation, rest, and recognition. Not more stuff—more connection. When your gift includes intentional action and a heartfelt card, it gives him exactly what he’s looking for.

What do you buy a dad-to-be?

Buy him a moment to reflect. A keepsake. A small bundle that says, “You’ve got this.” Pair it with a Dezire to Inspire card welcoming him into fatherhood with strength and support.

Don’t Just Gift—Give a Moment He’ll Hold Onto

It’s not about how much you spend. It’s about what he feels when he opens it. Whether it’s his first Father’s Day or his fortieth, your gift set can be the start of something more—a connection that continues long after the day is over.

Add a Card That Speaks When You Can’t

At Dezire to Inspire, our encouragement cards are made to carry love, pride, and quiet strength. Add one to your Father’s Day gift set, and you’re not just giving him something to open—you’re giving him something to remember.

    I am Cindy’s lifelong friend. I’m beyond proud of her for following a dream that brings so many others pure joy!

Every single recipient has commented about these beautiful notecards and just how special the message was! I can’t wait to buy my next set!

    I appreciate the recognition as being your very first repeat customer, however, you and your team are the ones who should be thanked. You guys created a way to help people through the best of days and the worst of days of life’s journey. 
Your cards are so truly awesome. I gave my mom the "My Marvelous Mother" box for her 85th birthday. She feels so special being able to read a new inspirational card every day.

    This card collection of wonderful, light-hearted, spiritual, and amusing quotes transported us to times of sweet togetherness with our beautiful, sweet fur baby, Rosie. Most of the cards reminded us of specific, special, and poignant moments over the years. We started writing these memories on the back of the very card that inspired each memory! Now, we have captured the most special moments of our time together, keeping Rosie even closer in our hearts as time goes by. Thank you, Dezire to Inspire, for making this possible for us. Rosie’s legacy lives on!!!!!!

    If you're looking for cards that truly speak from the heart, I have to recommend Dezire to Inspire. These aren't your typical greeting cards — they're meaningful, beautifully written pieces that help you connect with others in a deep and personal way. I've used these cards for so many different occasions: to support a friend through a tough time, offer daily inspiration, express sympathy for the loss of my sister's family pet or when my niece lost her husband. I also gave it to celebrate a bride for her bridal shower, and to simply remind my friend she's not alone. Every single time, the message inside was exactly what needed to be said. The quality is exceptional, and the thought behind each card is clear — they're designed to uplift, comfort, and inspire. If you're someone who values authentic connection and wants to send something that truly matters, Dezire to Inspire cards are perfect. You'll always have the right words for any moment.
