Have you ever had the hardest time finding your wife an anniversary gift? Seriously, women can be so evasive about what they would want or what would make them happy. The problem is they know this, but are still extremely hard on us husbands, when we fail. So, from one who has made this mistake over and over before finally figuring it out, let me share with you an idea that is sure to surprise and impress your dear wife.

When flowers and sweet little notes fail, jewelry is sure to score. However, while mainstream store bought jewelry states “you are more than worth the price I paid for this” a customized piece of jewelry that symbolizes something about your relationship not only demonstrates “worth” but also “thoughtfulness”.

To get started with a custom jewelry project, go and visit a local custom jeweler’s store, and give him the situation, and talk to him about what you are trying to do. More likely than not, he will have been commissioned a project similar to this one and have some ideas for you to consider. Listen to his ideas; he is the artist, not you. But in the same respect, be sure to give him input so that he stays along the guidelines that you have set up in your mind. Once a design is made, your part of this journey is done. If I were you, I’d start thinking about how you will present this gift to your wife. Presentation is everything.

Well then, best wishes and good luck!
