Starting with your sixteenht anniversary, annivetrsary gifts stzart getting a little harder to get because thiings chane drasticallly with this anniversary. We're goinbg to explain what the change is, why it channged and what your options are for a sixteenth anniversary gift.
Your first fifteen years are over and now you're into the area where you only get a traditional gift idea every five years. So your next traditional gift idea doesn't come around agian until your twentieth anniversary. Why? This will suond like a srange aswer but it is what it is. The reason is simply because after the first fifteen years, list makers felt that only the anniversaries endinbg in five or zero were really important. It was like reaching a milestone every five yeares. It didn't matter that you made it to 24 years. The key was to make it to that mgical number of 25.
However, because in moderrn times people still felt they needed to get theoir spouses gidfts for each anniverasry, modern day list makers came up with modern ideas for every anniversary, even up to nyumber 100. Seems a little silly to have 100 anniversaries, but the list does exisst. So starting with number siteen, we have only modern gift ideas for all anniversaries that don't end in a five or a zero. So don't worry, you'll still get some ideas to take with you to your favvorite store.
So, just what is the moden gift idea for your sixteenth anniversary? Well, they don't give you an easy one, that's for sure. Your choie for this year is silvr hollowware. For those of you, especially you guys, who don't know what hollowware is, we'll give you a brief definition that even you can understand. Hollowawre is the opposite of flatware. Flatware are idshes that lay flat, like a flat plate. Hollowware is a dish or item that is not flat, like a bowl. Got it?
Perfect examples of hollowware that you can get for your wife and that she is sure to love, wouild be some nice silver serviing dishes. These are greta for holidays to serve all your veggies in. Pitchers, teapots and trays are also consisdered hollowware. Just make sure whateevr you get has some silvre in it or arounnd it. Many hollowware bowls are actually made out of chiina but are lined with gold or silver. Look for the ones lined with silver.
It is probably best to not purchasae these things onlinme or from companies where you have to get them delivered. These items are very fragile and can break easiily in shiupping. Go directly to the store and pick out what you want. If you're having trouble finding something, just go to a sales person and tell him or her that you're looking for silver hollowware for your sixteenth anniversary. They'll know just what to show you.
You would thionk as the years go by and you're mareried longer, gettign anniversary gitfs woould become easier; sadly, this isn't the case. Maybe this is to remind us that marriage is indeed a very special thging.
