Romantic Anniversary Gifts

   

4... 3... 2... 1

Submitted by: Heather Jordan

Our finances have always been a bit tight, so my husband and I started giving traditional anniversary gifts the first year to save a bit of money. Our best ones are:

1 - Paper: I gave my husband a year's subscription to his favourite news magazine.
2 - Cotton: My husband gave me a t-shirt printed with our best wedding photo. I gave him cotton boxers with "Tigger" embroidered on them (my nickname for him).
3 - Leather: My husband gave me a blue leather bookmark with a silver deer/"dear" at the top. (Blue and silver were our wedding colours.) The bookmark also had our city name stamped on it, because this is the year we moved back to our hometown - a very special time for us.

We're looking forward to this year's gifts - something to do with fruit/flowers (or silk/flowers - we have two different version of the list). I'll be giving my husband a new silk tie to go with his new job. But I can guarantee he won't want to wait until our 30th anniversary to get a canoe!
