Choose a home decor item made with jade.
Thirty-five years together as a married couple is a reason to celebrate. This is an important milestone in your marriage and you want to commemorate the occasion by giving your spouse a gift for your anniversary. Choose from the traditional and modern gifts for the 35th anniversary which are coral and jade, or have a gift personalized for your spouse.
Coral Gifts
The traditional gift for a 35th anniversary is coral. Coral can describe the fossil coral as well as the color. Beaded jewelry items are made with coral chips and beads such as necklaces, bracelets, earrings, anklets and keychains. For home decor coral items, consider a vase, throw pillow or blanket, wall art or bookends.
Jade Gifts
For a modern anniversary gift, choose jade for the 35th anniversary. Jade jewelry items include pendants, rings, earrings and beaded bracelets. Many carved figurines and statues are made from jade such as animals, critters and people figurines. Picture frames and keepsake boxes are also made with jade inlay or jade chips encrusted on the box lid.
Personalized Gifts
Many gifts have the ability to be personalized for a memorable anniversary. Items to be personalized include monogrammed bath towels or bath robes, engraved home decor items such as picture frames, desk clocks or plaques, as well as other housewares including drinking glasses, flower vases, champagne glasses and keepsake boxes. Have a wine box engraved with your wedding and anniversary date and place a bottle of the wine you drank at your wedding inside the box.
Homemade Gifts
Make your spouse a gift for an inexpensive and thoughtful anniversary present. Write her a love letter or poem in your own handwriting and have it framed so she can keep it as a keepsake. Put together a photo album or scrapbook for her with photographs from your marriage, including photos from each year you have spent together. Surprise her in the morning with breakfast in bed and champagne.
Trips or Excursions
Take your spouse on a romantic trip or excursion for your anniversary. Go on a hot air balloon ride, dinner harbor cruise or ride paddle boats. Take a weekend trip to a destination you have been wanting to go to for a while, or to a hotel you have stayed many times as a couple. For a longer vacation, go back to the place where you had your honeymoon and enjoy it a second time.
