9th Anniversary Gifts: A Gift From Your Heart

The 9th wedding anniversary is a perfect time to celebrate your love and a perfect way to do it is to gift your spouse with the traditional or modern gift for the particular year.

Pottery or willow is the traditional gift for the ninth wedding anniversary, and leather as the modern alternative, the traditional flower is bird of paradise and the customary gem are Lapis Lazuli, Amethyst or Green Spinel.

Pottery

Pottery as a traditional 9th wedding anniversary gift has many ideas. One excellent gift is pottery wheel, to create your own unique vases, clay pots and bowls. Once finished, it can be dried and then painted.

To learn how to use a pottery wheel involves lots of clay and the passion to learn.  At first, you may create some rather out of the ordinary and uneven pieces, but once you become familiar with it, you can create really fine-looking potteries.

Other pottery ideas can be dinnerware, soup or cereal bowls, an attractive lamp vase, cups and saucers set, candle stick, pottery jug or salt and pepper shaker with dish. If you are looking for something more personal, you can try a personalized coffee mug or dining set, custom made photo plates of the couple or cake toppers.

Potteries make fine tableware and decorations at home.  Your ninth wedding anniversary might be the best time to replace your old dishes and start the occasion with a new set.

Willow is a tree that is used for making a variety of products.Planting a willow tree in your backyard will be a unique ninth anniversary gift that you can present to your spouse. This tree would continue to grow and be strong and will be a symbol of your love as time passes by.The most unique gift can be a basket made out of willow bark and accessorized with items of your choice like chocolates, a bottle of your spouse's favorite wine and many other things that you can think of. This would be an brilliant idea for a personalized ninth wedding anniversary gift.
