40th Wedding Anniversary
Lovely red
ruby is the classic gift material for the 40th anniversary!
Of course, forty red roses would also make a beautiful gift for this year. For gardeners, ruby colored
flowers such as nasturtium or a climbing rose with ruby colored
blooms are also neat ideas.
When giving a gift to the couple, beautiful red artisan glass is a great idea. An artistic red momento box will keep the
couple’s treasures safe and secure. For a more exotic gift,
give a trip to the ruby mine in Cherokee, North Carolina. Other ideas include ruby colored
paperweights, scented candles, candleholders, antique ruby glass, or red Asian-themed gifts are
other options.
If you are having an anniversary party, add sparkly
red glitter or red hearts to the cards.

- From our Visitors -
I took my wife out to lunch at her favorite restaurant. While we were out, I had arranged for our daughter to fill the living room with red roses and red streamers. When we got home, my wife had no idea anyone had been there because our children were not expected to come over until dinnertime. When my wife walked into the living room she just stopped suddenly in her tracks in complete surprise before she laughed and cried. A great result, well worth the planning.

I think that a good gift for this year would be a ring with three stones. The middle would be ruby and the other two are diamond.
