Traditional Wedding Anniversary Gifts: Ideas For The Seventh Year - Wool Or Copper

Searching for the perfect traditional seventh year wedding anniversary gift? Here are some ideas for possible wool or copper gifts.

You and your spouse have been religiously following the traditional wedding anniversary gifts and are now fast approaching the seventh year. Gift for the seventh year are marked by wool and copper, which, for many, can spell panic. Perhaps you live in a region where there is only one semi-cool day a year; which would signify absolutely no need for any clothes product made of wool. Put your fears of a seven-year itch aside and try out some of these wool and copper-inspired gifts for your spouse this year.

* If your spouse loves to be in the kitchen cooking for you and your family, invest in some copper cookware for him/her. Many professional chefs swear by copper because it has a quick reaction time and boasts a more uniform heating conductivity. So not only does it look great hanging on your cooking rack, it is fabulous for most types of cooking. Pair the copper cookware with some cooking lessons or a cook book and you will have a fantastic seventh year gift to give.

* Copper jewelry looks and feels great on the skin, and some even believe there are great health effects of wearing copper. A great copper necklace or broach will be a wonderful gift for your wife.

* Does your spouse love maps and traveling? Maybe your spouse is a self-proclaimed history buff? Get your spouse a beautiful copper-colored globe for his/her office or study. This piece will not only add an elegance to the decor, but it is also useful for searching for geographical locations.

* If your spouse loves to go camping or hiking, get them a copper lantern for their next trip. Better yet, why not book a weekend trip to a favorite camping site or a log cabin for a romantic getaway, so your spouse can start using his/her lantern right away.

* Maybe your spouse loves learning new trades and skills and has taken everything from stained glass classes to pottery lessons. Start them on a new and exciting adventure with weaving lessons. Consult a local weaving store or business that focuses on sewing products for help locating a teacher or class.

* Live in an area where the thermometer barely makes it below 70 degrees most times of the year? Get your spouse a wool sweater and when they look at you quizzically, hold up two tickets to a ski resort.

* Why not get a little more symbolic with the word copper? Copper can apply to the color and tone of somebody's skin, so, if your spouse has talked about it in the past, get him/her a year's worth or tanning sessions.

* Want to see a sheep farm in person? If time and your budget allows it, book a romantic trip for you and your spouse to visit New Zealand or Scotland for an up close and personal look at wool.

* How about covering up that empty spot in your living room with a beautiful wool rug? If you are unsure as to what color may match your current living area, take a photo of your living room in so the people at the rug store can help you make a pick that will complement your current decor.
