My husband gave me an extra special under $20 gift on our 1st anniversary. According to the anniversary gift guide, your 1st year gift should be paper or a clock.
My husband cut a large circle out of cardboard, he drew numbers on it to make it look like a clock – complete with paper “hands” attached by a little brass fastener in the center. He drew lines between each number down to the center to split the clock into “pie pieces” and he wrote something in each wedge to represent how much he loved me for each hour of the day. For example: at 6:00 a.m. he wrote “waking you up with kisses every morning” and at 11:00 p.m. he wrote “right now I am dreaming of you”.
It was the most romantic and thoughtful gift I have ever received!
