Anniversary Gift Etiquette

It's funny to look at what the traditional gift was and what now the modern day gift is.  I wonder who and why someone came up with this.  I guess it was suppose to help and in some cases it might but in others you just may make your spouse mad.

If your stuck and need some help take a look and maybe this will give you a jumping point.  Like wood could be a beautiful wooden keepsake box to a piece of furniture.  I can't believe you have to wait 60 years for a diamond in the traditional list, that's why they had to come up with a modern list.
