Silk Anniversary Gifts: Celebrating 12 Years of Marriage with luxurious silk.

Congratulations!  You’ve almost reached the 12th year of marriage and that certainly is significant milestone that deserves to be celebrated in style. What better way to commemorate this occasion than with a thoughtful and luxurious silk anniversary gift? 

But first, let’s do a little lesson on the anniversary year themes. They certainly have made buying anniversary gifts a bit easier by telling us what material to buy the gift in, but what is the meaning behind it all? The idea behind anniversary year themes is actually very sweet and clever.  The thought is that with each year that passes, your marriage grows stronger—and so along with that do the traditional materials.  So the anniversary gifts start out simple, with paper for your first year and cotton for your second year, their substance and strength increase as your relationship with one another also does. So, when you reach 40 plus years, you’ll be gifting precious stones and eventually, diamonds (at the 60th anniversary).

The 12th anniversary gift is Silk.  Silk is a symbol of elegance, beauty, and sophistication, making it the perfect choice for celebrating this special anniversary. In this blog post, we will explore some exquisite silk anniversary gift ideas that are sure to impress your loved one.

1. Silk Apparel: Surprise your spouse with a beautiful silk garment. Whether it's a silk robe, pajamas, or a silk blouse or skirt, clothing made from this luxurious fabric is not only comfortable but also incredibly stylish. Your loved one will appreciate the softness and elegance of silk and will feel pampered every time they wear it.  Our picks for a beautiful anniversary gift are our Silk Closet Vienna Ballet Striped Pajamas and Silk Closet Classic Silk Slip in Parisian Peony.

2. Silk Bedding:  Silk sheets, pillowcases, and duvet covers not only add a touch of opulence to your bedroom but also provide numerous benefits. Silk is known for its temperature-regulating properties, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. It is also hypoallergenic, making it a perfect choice for those with sensitive skin or allergies. Your wife will love the indulgent experience of sleeping on silk.  Our queen-sized silk pillowcases are a luxurious 22 momme and come in a single pillowcase or gift set.  Our pick for a wedding anniversary gift is our beautiful silk pillowcase gift set in Whitehaven Bliss.

3. Silk Accessories: Surprise your loved one with a silk accessory that they can cherish for years to come. Consider gifting a silk scarf, tie, or pocket square. Silk accessories add a touch of sophistication to any outfit and can be a versatile addition to your loved one's wardrobe. They can be worn on special occasions or to add a touch of elegance to everyday outfits.  Silk scrunchies are a great little gift that will come in handy and a simple way to add some silk to your anniversary gift. Our pick is our Skinny silk Scrunchie set in English Rose Garden.

4. Silk Jewellery: Surprise your spouse with a piece of silk jewellery that is as unique and beautiful as your love for each other. Silk thread bracelets or necklaces are delicate and feminine, making them a perfect gift for your loved one. You can also consider silk knot cufflinks for your spouse, adding a touch of sophistication to their formal attire.

5. Silk Spa Experience: Treat your spouse to a luxurious silk spa experience. Gift them a silk robe, slippers, and a set of silk towels. Create a relaxing atmosphere at home by setting up a spa-like ambiance with scented candles and soothing music. Your loved one will appreciate the pampering and indulgence that silk brings to their spa experience.  Our silk robe makes a lovely addition to your at home spa gift.

7. Silk Personalised Gifts: Add a personalised touch to your silk anniversary gift. Consider getting a silk monogrammed handkerchief, a silk photo album filled with memories from your 12 years of marriage, or a silk journal where your spouse can jot down their thoughts and dreams. These personalised gifts will be cherished and remind your loved one of the beautiful journey you have shared together.

Remember, the most important aspect of a silk anniversary gift is the thought and love behind it. Put effort into selecting a gift that reflects your spouse's personality and preferences. Whether it's a luxurious silk garment, bedding, accessories, or a personalised item, a silk anniversary gift will not only celebrate 12 years of marriage but also symbolise the love, elegance, and beauty that have grown stronger over time.
