First Anniversary Present

My wife and I had our first anniversary recently.

The first anniversary present is supposed to be paper, so I put photos from our wedding into an antique locket with an abalone cover and an antique wooden picture frame as two of her anniversary presents.

If you're approaching your first anniversary and this appeals as a gift idea, be in touch.



The back of the picture frame is actually my favorite thing about it.




The locket was missing the frame on the left side, so I engraved it with the date of our first anniversary.
