Finding the anniversary gift idea that surprises and amazes

Posted by admin

Do you come across that dazzling pair of gold earrings that your love hid in your apple pie? Nice surprise. Discover that one of them is missing? Not so much. Sometimes even the most expensive anniversary surprise gift idea can backfire. However, when it works as you planned, their reaction is priceless.

But how do you do that? How to conjure up an anniversary gift idea that perfectly suits your partner without directly asking “what do you want?” If your answer is “just give them the money,” you better enjoy this anniversary. It could be your last.

Or you might be tempted to drop caution and follow your instincts, but so did the guy with the earrings. Instead, close your eyes, open your ears, and surprise her, in a good way, with the perfect anniversary gift idea that makes her say “ahhh.”

Show your true colors

On the surface, this is one of the simplest approaches to finding a custom-made anniversary gift idea. Use your favorite color as a starting point. Of course, to do that, you must first KNOW her favorite color. And for guys, that requires you to step out of your comfort zone and immerse yourself in a new experience: paying attention.

Color her impressed

Look at your clothes and accessories and notice what shades tend to repeat themselves. Is it true to blue? So a shiny sapphire bracelet can be an ideal fit.

Or maybe you’d rather go green. Pick up a dazzling pair of emerald earrings and wait for the accolades.

Do you usually look pretty in pink? Treat her to a stunning pearl necklace that begs the question “how did you know?”

Ladies, the same approach will work wonders for your man, and since you’ve mastered the whole “paying attention” business, you’re halfway through your search for an anniversary gift idea.

Maybe it’s a fancy watch with a dial or strap that matches your favorite shade, or a pair of fancy cufflinks in the color you like best.

Regardless of which route you choose, overcoming your color blindness can deliver eye-opening results in your search for the best anniversary gift idea.

Playing the numbers game

What’s in a number? How about the key to an unforgettable anniversary gift idea and, in the process, the heart of your loved one?

Women are often pleasantly surprised when you remember your anniversary; much less what number it is. So leave her doubly impressed by matching the gift with the material traditionally associated with that anniversary year.

Of course, this is easier some years than others. Silver for the 25th or pearl for the 30th is pretty straightforward, but what about the first anniversary and its connection to paper? Give him a pad of writing paper and he’ll likely get a “Dear John” letter in return.

Fortunately, there is also a modern gift list for each year to go along with the traditional ones, probably compiled by the guy who went the “paper” route.

For example, the first anniversary is also related to watches, and it is not too much of a stretch to extend that to watches. What better way to celebrate your first year together than with beautiful his and hers watches? They’re trendy, they’re functional, and they’re somehow appropriate for the couple who are still learning what it is that makes each other tick.

Even if they don’t admit it, everyone loves a surprise, so incorporating it into your next anniversary gift idea will leave a lasting impression. Let your imagination fly and dare to be different.

But whatever you do, avoid the “gems in the cake” approach. Some surprises are too difficult to digest.
