The first-year wedding anniversary gift traditionally is something made of paper or plastic. This can be a simple gift you create yourself or even purchase. Your husband may enjoy anything from a sports-related gift to a romantic one. Whatever you choose as a gift for him on your first anniversary, make it a memorable one.
Books
Give your spouse a book by his favorite author. Sign him up for a subscription to his favorite magazine for a gift that keeps on giving all year. If you are crafty, make a scrapbook or calendar using pictures of the two of you as a memorable gift for the sentimental man.
Clocks
Another traditional first year anniversary gift is a clock or watch. Various clocks are available for purchase to fit any man's personal style. A nice clock for his office at home or work will do. Giving him a nice wrist watch is another gift idea.
Tickets
Get him paper tickets to his favorite sports team or musician for a gift you can share together. Purchase tickets to a variety of shows or entertainment that sparks his interest.
Art
For a man that appreciates art, buy him a painting or drawing to display. This is a gift you can also make yourself in the form of a poem, painting, drawing or sculpture. It may be more sentimental to him if it's something you created from your heart. A simple, framed picture of the two of you will also do.
Stationery
Get the business-type man personalized stationery. This would work well for any guy in just about any profession as a nice gift for even his home office.
