Anniversary Gift Symbols
Ahh Spring and Summer are upon us! The sun is shining, birds are chirping, and the flowers are budding. It’s also anniversary and wedding gift shopping season, because every couple I’ve ever known had a wedding in the most popular months to do so; May and June!
Celebrating an anniversary milestone is always special! I found a book that listed the traditional gifts for a particular anniversary year, and then the “modern” gift version. To tell you the truth, neither really seem like something I would want to receive! Case in point; this year I would receive Wood and Silverware! Just send me the cash or jewelry instead! HaHa. Listed below are the traditional gift ideas along with their more modern counterpart:

My Favorite Artwork!
The love of Art is truly subjective! However, who wouldn’t
like their name with their Loved one carved in the sand?
I didn’t know what to get my husband for his Birthday since
it was only one week after Christmas and I used up all my good gift ideas. I struggled trying to find the perfect
gift. He really didn’t need another tie
or golf balls. I wanted to buy something
special for him to show how much I loved him.
We love going to the beach in the summer and our favorite vacation spot
is Siesta Key, FL. As my kids are off
building sand castles, my husband and I sit and take in the sun and just
relax. I few times I’ve etched my lunch
order or some cute saying in the sand for him next to his lounge chair. He smiles and gets a chuckle.
I saw this print and just LOVED IT! What a great way to
capture our love of the beach and our treasured memories there than our names
etched in the sand. Perfect! I couldn’t wait to give him his Birthday
gift. As I thought, he loved it. What made it even more special was that it
was Art created just for him. I did good
this year but now have to start thinking of ideas to top myself for next year!
