This bundle comes with everything you need to get the fire started on your 6th anniversary. But there’s plenty of accessories available to make your next winter party even warmer!

TaylorMade Stealth 2 Fairway Wood

Ok, so technically fairway woods haven’t been made of wood since like the 1980’s. But they’re still called “woods” so it counts!! Also, this is the second time Jay has mentioned a golf club. Maybe he’s trying to give Annie a subtle hint? Annie here: too bad our 6th anniversary was years ago!

Custom Wood Sign

These handmade custom wood signs are truly incredible. The intricate detail and pop of color will make this an amazing 5th anniversary gift. We’d recommend getting a family name sign with an “established” date using your anniversary or wedding date. It would look beautiful displayed anywhere in your home. Just make sure you order ahead of time. The custom nature and skilled work that goes into each piece can take 10-12+ weeks to complete!

Our 6th Anniversary Gifts to Each Other

Jay to Annie

I wasn’t having much luck finding a wood gift having just celebrated with the same gift for our 5th anniversary. But one day while walking through the Bryant Park holiday shops in NYC near my office, I found this beautiful wood framed quote about family that I knew Annie would love. We had just recently started a family and planned on having more children in the future. And the message was exactly how we wanted our home to feel for our family. It’s currently hanging by our front door as a daily reminder of what’s most important to us.

Annie to Jay

We all have little stuff laying around the house that we’d love to organize, but just can’t figure out how or where. For Jay, it’s always been things like gift cards, collar stays and poker chips he likes to collect from casinos he’s visited. So I found this wooden box for all those little knick-knacks that would often be spread all over the place. I had it engraved with his initials and a sweet quote, and it looks great on a shelf in his closet. Far better than leaving his stuff everywhere and never knowing where anything is!

Keep an eye on our upcoming blog posts to find out what we gifted each other!
