For those who aren’t ready to get married or propose, a great anniversary gift idea for your loved one might be a watch, earrings or even a beautiful necklace. Having an item engraved with a special saying or a personal note inside will help your loved one cherish the gift even more.

When you are not sure what to get your husband or wife for your anniversary, you can always revert to the Anniversary Gifts by Year list. Many of the years of marriage gifts on this list are either jewelry or can be with some creativity.

The first anniversary is paper; along with another “real” gift you could make your loved-one a paper jewelry accessory. This will show him or her that you are trying to be romantic and creative, which also shows how much you care.

The second year is cotton, which could easily be made into some type of jewelry like a bracelet or necklace.

The third anniversary customary gift is leather, a nice leather band watch or other jewelry accessory with leather is acceptable.

For your 4th wedding anniversary the customary gift is flowers, you might be able to find a necklace or bracelet with flowers etched into it for a memorable gift.

If you are looking for a customary gift for your 5th wedding anniversary you will be surprised that the traditional gift is wood. There are many beads that are made with wood, so you should be able to find a necklace or bracelet with wooden beads.

For the seventh wedding anniversary you might consider choosing some type of jewelry that is copper or brass colored.

The 8th wedding anniversary customary gift is bronze; there are many different options for this gift which include a bronze colored bracelet, earrings or even a ring.

The traditional anniversary gift for those celebrating their 9th anniversary is pottery; you might consider choosing a necklace that has ceramic beads.

As your marriage progresses into the double digits you might consider purchasing a charm bracelet that you can add to every year.
