Give a Giclée Canvas Print to your loved one for their next anniversary. They'll be pleased as punch, and you'll get that warm, glowing feeling of a job well done!
PICKING THE PERFECT GIFT
It's always more fun to receive a creative, personal gift than a generic one. And it's usually just as much fun for the gift giver to pick out a really special, meaningful present.
The image, the size, the display - these are all important things to consider when choosing wall decor as a gift. It should be something the recipient will love, not just something you'd like yourself! Here are some tips for selecting the best piece for that upcoming wedding (or other!) anniversary:
- Snoop around their house. Not into drawers and closets, but try to get a feel for the decorating scheme. If they like simple wallpapers and light shades, go for a picture in this same vein. Are they more into bold colors and styles? Choose a photo that reflects this wilder version of their personalities.
- Bring up home decor-related conversations, and then listen. Do they mention an area they wish was better decorated? How about a color scheme in the planning stages? If a blank wall is a subject of despair, sneak a measurement so you can order an artwork of the perfect size.
- If you're unable to browse yourself, make use of your existing knowledge, or chat with other people who know them. What hobbies does the lucky couple enjoy? A beautiful mountain vista may be the perfect choice for an outdoorsy pair, while a stunning nighttime cityscape is a great option for a duo of dyed-in-the-wool urbanites!
- Concerned about picking the right thing? Consider ordering a small image. No less thoughtful or eye-catching, a little 10x10" or 15x20" print fits perfectly in the front hall, office, or stairwell, and won't take over. Or, if you really have no idea, you can always just ask! It might not be a complete surprise, but it won't be any less appreciated.
- Still stuck? Why not opt for something that suits the special day? Can you get your hands on some wedding photos? If it was a recent wedding, a single photo enlarged on canvas is all the rage these days. If it was years ago and you have faded 4x6s, we can turn a bunch of them into a beautiful collage of that best day of their life.
- Once you've settled on the image, consider the presentation. Do they already have a number of canvases hanging in the home? If so, you might choose to stick with that display, or pick out one of our beautiful canvas floater frame to accentuate the picture.
- If you don't have access to the perfect image, or for any other reason you're unable to select a canvas print or frame, why not let them pick their own, on you! We offer Gift Certificates in custom denominations. We can send the recipient the code via email, or print a physical certificate and mail it straight to them!
Whatever your budget or relationship with the recipient, put some serious thought into the gift. Your efforts will be recognized and appreciated.

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY GIFTS
Wedding anniversaries have been a cause for celebration since as far back as the Middle Ages. Though they tended to only celebrate major milestones like 25 and 50 years (which would likely be rare given life expectancy), even then the tradition of giving silver was practiced for the 25th year: the husband would present his wife with a silver garland, which was to symbolize the harmony required to make it that long. A gold wreath was presented after 50 years.
Around the Victorian Era, 60th and 75th anniversary milestones were added. It is believed to be in this era that a list was created, of appropriate gifts for each anniversary. Still occassionally adhered to today, they are as follows (in the U.S.):
- 1st: Paper
- 2nd: Cotton
- 3rd: Leather
- 4th: Linen or Silk
- 5th: Wood
- 6th: Iron
- 7th: Wool/Copper
- 8th: Bronze
- 9th: Pottery
- 10th: Tin
|
- 15th: Crystal
- 20th: China
- 25th: Silver
- 30th: Pearl
- 35th: Jade/Coral
- 40th: Ruby
- 50th: Gold
- 55th: Emerald
- 60th: Diamond
- 75th: Jade
