Any brilliant ideas for a bronze anniversary gift for the wife???

[redgtxdi]

Aside from just about "being over it" for all this holiday gift-buying stuff, I'm racking my brain trying to think of something bronze for the wife for our anniversary. We really don't need anything. Certainly not another picture frame. Wind chimes. Jewelry. Or any other crap like that.

Any brilliant ideas??

TIA

P.S. I thought of a new dining room chandelier as we have a brass fixture now & I figured a brushed-nickel something or other would look nice. Or maybe a new kitchen faucet with a cool high arc in the same finish to mimic bronze to get rid of the 90's chrome. Other than that, I got nothin'.

Pottery Barn sounds up your alley. I finally bothered to check out what the buzz was about recently... All their stuff is industrial inspired.

Something bronze? Skin? :sneaky: Yours or hers or both.

Bronze antique doorknobs. There are conversion kits available to fit modern doors.

This is my favorite.

Go into training, qualify for the Olympics and win a bronze medal.

Dang, too late.

Well, we just did the pots/pans thing when nonstick coating was declared unsafe.

I like the doorknob idea. Might have to see what it'd take for the front door. Would be memorable thereafter, that's for sure.

That banana is just 10 different kinds of wrong......but totally cool. LOL

If I have to walk into a pottery barn (and I just might), you may just find my dead carcass there once the testosterone just completely leaves my body.

Bronze anniversary, so something steampunk.

Ha!

LOL.....that's literally my avatar on another forum. (former drummer, now married. Wife replaces drums)

And, yes, I knew porn would enter the thread. I just don't know why it took so long.

P.S. There's a *Home Goods* near the Pottery Barn nearest me & I wonder if they might not have more bronze type stuff than PB?? I'll probably check out both. (gift shopping sucks!)


P.P.S. Mail carrier is a pretty hot chick! (Oh ya, I just said that!)

100th anniversary is Californium.

Bronze anniversary in the US is now linen or lace. Go with some lace lingerie.

Yeah, here is the list:

I love how the "Modern" choices are a shitton more expensive than the traditional choices. Can someone please beat up some person who works at the Macy's marketing department for me? They had to be behind this.

No shit, gotta be DeBeers behind a lot of it too. The 10th went from Aluminum and Tin to diamond jewelry. So instead of the traditional can of Spam now guys are on the hook for diamonds?

..Californium is a joke gift, right?

right?

 

[Drako]

If people live to their 100th anniversary, then why not Californium?

Try looking up bronze bells...like a small ship bell.

I too do traditional gifts for my wife.
