Fourth Anniversary Gifts

Fourth anniversary gifts can be celebrated with the traditional list and silk or linen.

Think nights away at lovely hotels with great bed linen! Or an extravagant trip to the Far East for beautiful silks.

Both silk and linen can make great gifts for both men and women. You can have linen suits or bed linen, you could have silk ties, dresses, shirts, scarves, sheets and silk paintings.

Stay clear of shoes as this is such a personal choice and they need to feel comfortable, you would have to literally put yourself in your other half's feet to know if they are a good buy. It might be easier to take them with you but where is the romance in shoe shopping? Maybe I am just going to the wrong shoe shops!

If you are a crafty person you could paint your own silk painting, you can even get silk painting kits if you are unsure.

You could focus on the number four and have 4 nights away, a set of 4 mugs and even a trip to the local golf course! Sorry couldn't resist that one!

The anniversary gift that really makes you think twice is the 4th anniversary gift idea from the modern list, I almost feel there should be a drum roll! That is the gift of appliances!

Now I know most of us will have a secret appliance dream, one that only comes out when you visit your local store, ours is the big American fridges. We walk the aisles and gaze at wonder at the ice makers and the water coolers but I am not sure about it as an anniversary gift, it just doesn't seem right. Maybe it just needs a touch of romance, I suppose you could always add a bunch of flowers as well!
