IRON or CANDY - 6th Wedding Anniversary Gifts
(or Wood & Amethyst Gemstone)
Which are better for
6th wedding anniversary gifts,
iron or
candy? Hmm! Okay, I totally understand the need for a nice romantic iron bucket and mop, or even some adorable cast iron pot or fry pan. I know I keep saying it but back in the really old days – like the Bronze Age, Trojan wives would have given anything for a good cast iron skillet.
Even in the industrial age when women left the relative comfort of the family hovel to work in an industrial sweat-shop, the thought of getting some brand new iron cookware for their 6th wedding anniversary, would have been cause for spontaneous dancing in the streets. I’m joking of course. No really!
Even today, a 6 year anniversary gift can be practical, and a set of new steel cookware would be appreciated. In fact, any home-ware shop makes a great catalogue for 6th wedding anniversary gift ideas. Of course, the flipside to those considering a practical sixth anniversary gift is candy or chocolate. Most women have a sweet tooth and chocolate has long been known to be a potent mood enhancer. The other good thing is, chocolate is a lot
less expensive than iron pots. So for those budget conscious couples at their 6 year wedding anniversary, chocolate speaks all languages.
Of course you could always do both. A delicious box of candy to go with a lovely iron cook set, is a perfect blend of whimsy and practicality on your sixth wedding anniversary. All the bases are covered. A classy but practical 6th wedding anniversary gift from one partner and a delicious one in return from the other. Everyone’s a winner.
The modern alternative is to give gifts of
wood. Here are a few traditional and modern 6th anniversary gift ideas to stir your thinking processes.
