Celebrating an anniversary calls for a unique gift that follows the tradition of celebrating each year with a material gift such as paper, cotton, and leather. Here are a couple of unique gift ideas that stay true to the anniversary gifting tradition.

Paper
Couples celebrating their 1st-anniversary gift paper presents to their significant other but there are some creative options other than a thoughtful card. The upcycling industry offers a variety of upcycled products that utilize recycled paper including art and home decor pieces.

There are a number of artists that utilize paper as their main medium and this piece of art can be treasured and displayed in your home for years to come. Another thoughtful paper gift can be something personal like a scrapbook, poem, or journal that can also keep a record of your loving relationship.

Cotton
When a couple celebrates the 2nd anniversary, the traditional gift is something made of cotton and is a great gift option for home-related presents. Cotton home decor pieces are long-lasting such as nice table linens or a personalized photo blanket.

Leather
The traditional gift for the 3rd anniversary is leather with nice options for fashion accessory gifts including handbags and wallets. Another option is trying vegan leather that is made of eco-conscious materials.

One company offers a vegan leather alternative made of pineapple leaves called Piñatex with a variety of styles available on Amazon. If you’re looking for more unique leather gift options like a nice pair of shoes or a belt.
