Whether you've been together for ten years or have been married for a decade and counting, your partner is worth celebrating! So what do you get them? Here are 10-anniversary gift ideas to delight your partner:
A photo collage
If you're looking for an anniversary gift that is personal but not too personal, consider a photo collage. A photo collage can be made from photos of you and your partner--or the two of you with friends and family members. You can also include shots of pets or places that have been special for both of you.
A custom painting of your significant other.
If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind gift, consider commissioning a custom painting of your significant other. What could be better than having someone paint your loved one?
Consider their favorite color and the size of the painting, as well as its style and subject matter. If they like landscapes, perhaps an artist skilled in this genre would be best; if they prefer portraits or still lifes, look for someone with experience in these areas. Be sure to ask about the cost before hiring an artist--you want to ensure your partner will love their anniversary gift!
A piece of sheet music that has a special meaning to you both.
This gift idea is a bit more special than the others, but it's a great way to show your partner how much he or she means to you.
A piece of sheet music with special meaning to both of you can be framed and displayed in your home. If there are songs that remind both of you of when the two of you first met or fell in love, this would be an excellent choice! Or maybe there was one song that meant something extraordinary for one person and not for another; either way, framing something like this will add romance and sentimentality to any room in which it hangs (and make sure it's somewhere visible).
A personalized shot glass.
A personalized shot glass is an excellent gift for anyone who loves to drink. It can be engraved with your partner's name or say something funny like "World's Best Partner." Shot glasses are available in many different materials and sizes, so you can choose the one that suits your budget and style best.
Shot glasses make an excellent anniversary gift because they're fun to receive and use at any time of year--not just on special occasions like anniversaries!
An album of old photos of the two of you together.
If you want to go nostalgic, an album of old photos of the two of you together is a great choice. It's sentimental and gives your partner something tangible to look at and remember all those good times with.
If you're looking for something more practical, there are plenty of options out there! For example:
-
A coffee grinder (or espresso machine) so that they can make their coffee in their own time whenever they want it;
-
A new pair of headphones; this way, they won't disturb anyone else when listening to music or watching videos on their computer at home or work;
A custom piece of jewelry.
A custom piece of jewelry is a great way to show your partner you care. Customized jewelry is also a great way to commemorate an important date, like the anniversary of your first date or the day you got married.
You can make your custom jewelry with these simple steps:
-
Determine what kind of material you want to work with- silver, gold, and other metals; gemstones; glass beads; or any other material available at craft stores (including plastic). If using metal as a base material for an engagement ring design, consider whether it needs to be plated with rhodium (a white coating) so it doesn't tarnish over time. For example: if making an anniversary gift for someone who works with their hands often, stainless steel might not be the best choice since dirt may get trapped underneath its surface, causing discoloration over time unless adequately cleaned each day before wearing it again!
An over-the-door shoe organizer for her closet and drawers.
If your partner is anything like me, her closet and drawers are overflowing with shoes. An over-the-door shoe organizer is a great way to organize those shoes and make them easy to find when she needs them. They're also perfect for storing handbags, hats, and scarves in the bedroom or bathroom.
The best part? They're easy to install! All you have to do is choose from various colors and patterns that match your decor (or don't), measure your door space, then snap on the hooks where they seem appropriate--no tools required!
If you want something more specialized than this basic model we've shown here (which has three rows of hooks), there are many options available at home improvement stores or online retailers like Amazon: some come with clips so that you can hang clothes from them; others have four tiers instead of three; still others include storage bins underneath each row for extra space savings...and so forth! You could even buy two organizers so one could be used solely by him while another would serve only her needs (or vice versa).
A set of personalized coasters for the couple's home bar or kitchen table.
Coasters are a thoughtful gift for couples because they're one of the few items you can get that is both personalized and functional. They're also versatile enough to match any decor or style. Coasters can be made from many different materials--wood, glass, and stone are popular choices--and they can be customized with photos or artwork from your favorite memories together. If you have some artistic talent (or want to save money on an Etsy commission), consider making your own set of custom coasters as part of your anniversary gift!
New sheets for the bedroom! It doesn't get more romantic than fresh linens! (Make sure they're comfy!)
New sheets are the way to go if you're looking for a gift that will truly delight your partner. They can be expensive, but there are affordable options out there. And if you don't have the budget for expensive bedding? Don't worry--you don't need to buy the most expensive option on the market! Just find something comfortable and durable enough for both of you, then check its reviews before buying so that no one gets stuck sleeping on scratchy Egyptian cotton or whatever else might make them unhappy in bed.
For an anniversary gift, consider making something unique that reflects you and your partner's interests and hobbies.
If you want to get creative and make a gift for your partner, consider making something that reflects both your interests and hobbies. For example, if he loves playing music but doesn't have a guitar, why not make him one? While it may be easier said than done, tons of tutorials online can help you construct an instrument from scratch--and if all else fails, there's always Etsy!
If making something seems too daunting or time-consuming for your tastes (or if the thought of creating anything, in particular, makes your stomach churn), consider choosing another anniversary gift idea instead. There are plenty out there!
If you're feeling stuck, we have a few ideas. First, try looking back at your relationship and brainstorming about what has been unique about it. Then think about how you could commemorate those moments in a tangible way that would be meaningful to you and your partner. Consider making something unique that reflects your interests and hobbies as an anniversary gift idea!
