One sophisticated notepad lets you move from jotting down lists to penning letters without missing a beat. The thick, high quality paper is Made in the USA and easily doubles as stationery—just fold it to fit perfectly in a business envelope. And an open format calendar helpfully keeps track of the dates, no matter what year it is.
4) Stainless Steel Golf Ball Marker
Make your golf ball uniquely yours with Tin Cup. This stainless steel stencil lets anyone easily add a design to standard golf balls, making them easier to identify and adding some personality. Tin Cup comes with a marker and leather pouch, for easy storage when you're ready to hit the links.
5) Japanese Welcome Fish Soap
Japanese soap shaped like a supersized fish makes for a meaningful (and eye-catching) gift.

Give one as a unique token of thanks or good luck, or hang one up in your own shower.
