It's tricky when you're shopping for the man who has everything — or denies that he needs anything more — but there are a few presents that he's guaranteed to love. Scan this list of gift ideas from Fine Art America, and then get shopping before June 20.

Wall art
Surely there's a wall in his life that needs sprucing up. From high-quality art prints made with archival ink to those printed on acrylic, metal, and wood, the material options are nearly as endless as the subjects. New to the site is the ability to transform personal photos into digitally painted masterpieces. You can even order the prints framed, so there's no down time between unwrapping and hanging.

Mobile phone cases
Whether he's an iPhone guy or a Samsung man, there's a case here for him. Choose from minimalist music icons to abstract artworks to photorealistic images, all custom manufactured in two to three days and with a money-back guarantee.

Fleece blankets
Perfect for family movie nights or picnics in the park, these luxuriously soft, 100-percent fleece blankets are available in two different sizes and featured incredible artwork on the top surface. You even get to choose from two different styles: plush fleece and sherpa fleece.

Hoodies or T-shirts
Whether you go for a badass graphic, classic saying, or iconic character (they have Marvel, DC Comics, Universal, and more in their brand stable), you'll get to choose from a variety of body styles, colors, and materials.

Stationery
You might think most men wouldn't be into stationery, but remember this includes spiral notebooks, fun greeting cards, and even stickers. Give him somewhere to map out plans and jot down his thoughts, or toss in a few stickers to dress up his laptop, guitar case, bike, or car.

Fine Art America is the world's largest online art marketplace, with hundreds of thousands of independent artists from all over the world. It has 16 manufacturing centers located in five different countries, all running 24/7 to make sure you get your unique item as soon as possible.

Popular Ikea furniture chain to open 4th Dallas store in Rockwall

IKEA

Dallas-Fort Worth is getting a new Ikea store in Rockwall. Located at Stodghill Road and I-30, it'll be the third Ikea in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and is due to open in December 2025.

Ikea is the world's largest furniture retailer, founded in 1943 by Ingvar Kamprad, and known for its simple, modern approach to interior design at an affordable price, its ready-to-assemble furniture, and its amusement-park-like stores.

Ikea will be the anchor in a 65-plus acre mixed-use development with a location chosen for its accessibility not only to the east side of DFW but also to major highways that connect to faraway towns like Texarkana and Little Rock. Rockwall to Texarkana is 155 miles or a 2-hour-and-22-minute drive — surely doable if you're hot to get a great quality mattress at a good price or stock up on Swedish gummy red fish.

According to a release, the store represents Ikea's intention to become more accessible, affordable, and convenient for the many here in the U.S., even those who live in places like Casa View and Mesquite, and the store will offer a new way of reaching customers both in-store and digitally.

The store's footprint is 108,000 square feet — almost a third smaller than the existing locations in Frisco and Grand Prairie, which both span 293,000-plus square feet (although Grand Prairie is one story while Frisco is two-story). There's also a pickup-style store in Southlake that's 10,809 square feet.

“Our expansion goal is simple. We will be where people are, whenever and however they want to experience Ikea," says Ikea U.S. Ceo and Chief Sustainability Officer Javier Quiñones. “We have been testing different store formats to increase customer convenience, make home delivery more cost-efficient, and reach our customers where they live, work, and socialize. IKEA Rockwall represents a key milestone in this ongoing journey.”

Though smaller than the other area behemoths, Rockwall will nonetheless be serving Ikea's trademark meatballs at a new Swedish Deli concept, a Swedish cafe to enjoy meals onsite, and a Swedish Bistro for quick takeaway items that can be enjoyed in the outdoor seating area or at home.

The space will include multiple fully furnished room settings that showcase “local living” solutions reflecting the unique needs of the residents of the local community. Rockwall embroidered pillows, maybe?

Additionally, Ikea Rockwall’s design will include features for improved sustainability, specifically solar power, LEED certified construction, EV chargers, onsite recycling and native plant materials to reduce water consumption.

“We are strongly committed to the communities in which we operate. IKEA Rockwall provides an even more seamless omnichannel shopping experience throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, and we look forward to welcoming residents and surrounding neighbors to this new Ikea experience,” says Ikea U.S. Area Market Manager Rob Parsons.
