The anniversary for six years of marriage is called the Iron Anniversary. Here’s six gift ideas to for your partner or for a couple going strong.
As you approach six years of marriage, you may be well aware by now of the traditional gifts associated with each year of marriage. For example, year one is the paper anniversary, year two is the cotton anniversary, and by year six, you’ve reached the iron anniversary!
If you’re struggling to think of an anniversary gift this year, you’re in luck. Iron may seem like an unusual material for a gift, but we have tons of gorgeous and unique options for your home that your partner will love!
From pizza oven doors to iron wall decor, we’ve got you covered for your iron anniversary. Just like your marriage, iron is strong and can endure the test of time.
Read on for six awesome iron gift ideas that your partner will love and enjoy for years to come.
1. Iron Pizza Oven Door for Pizza Lovers
Does your loved one love the art of making pizza? If you have a stone or wood-fired pizza oven, it’s time to upgrade it with a beautiful customizable iron pizza oven door.
We offer pizza oven doors for pizza ovens of all sizes and styles that will suit any aesthetic. From the Tuscan, Mediterannean, or Victorian arched doors to the Scandinavian or Spanish Colonial square and rectangular doors, you’re guaranteed to find a pizza oven door that is perfect for your home or backyard.
2. Iron Mantel Straps for Fireplace Enthusiasts
We don’t know about where you live, but here in Idaho, we take fireplaces seriously! With January lows ranging from -2 to 22 degrees, a roaring fire is an absolute must.
If you’re a fireplace enthusiast, you probably spend quite a bit of time in front of the fire. You deserve a fireplace that is as beautiful and jaw-dropping as it is practical. With our iron mantel straps, you can give your fireplace the makeover it deserves.
Our mantel straps are designed to look beautiful and attach to mantles in a wide variety of sizes and weights. Many choose to add an iron rod that runs between the two mantle straps to create a place to hang gloves to dry or to hang stockings at Christmas time. Pairing our iron mantel straps with wood and stone creates a strong, earthy appearance and reminds you that the fireplace is the heart of the home and it’s built to last.
3. 6″ Iron Door Knockers Repurposed as Ornate Towel Rings
When we think of door knockers, we often think of huge, heavy double doors protecting homes that have stood for centuries. Regardless of the size of your front doors or the age of your home, you can bring that same feel into your interior design with repurposed 6″ iron door knockers.
In fact, these 6″ door knockers make great towel rings and bring sophistication to any table. You and your partner can impress your guests or simply celebrate a dinner for two in style by nestling your best napkins in our iron door knockers.
4. Custom Signs Etched in Iron
When you can’t find the perfect gift for your partner, it may be time to go custom. Customization is a great way to take your creative vision and the talent and quality materials offered by professional craftsmen and bring the perfect gift to life.
Not sure what to add to a custom sign etched in iron? Consider meaningful images, like the silhouette of the state where you and your partner live, come from, or got married. Alternatively, you can have words or dates etched into iron, like a significant quote that speaks to your marriage or the date of your anniversary.
Customization opens up the door to unending possibilities. Iron, sturdy and strong, makes the perfect material for a custom sign just for you and your partner.
5. Iron Cutouts as Gorgeous Wall Decor
Perhaps you and your partner have been looking for ways to bring your interior design together and add elements that catch the eye. With iron cutouts used as wall decor, you can find the perfect focal point for any room.
If religion is an important part of your union, an ornate iron cross will look wonderful above the fireplace, in your bedroom, or watching proudly over the dining room. If you love the look of western art and iconography, our nature-inspired, Native American, or cowboy wall decor may be the finishing touch you’ve been looking for. If the romance of Celtic or Renaissance architecture speaks to you and your partner, an iron quatrefoil is just what you need.
6. Decorative Iron Hooks
After six years of marriage, most couples find that nothing beats the combination of beautiful and practical. Decorative iron hooks deliver both and the styles are practically limitless.
Wall hooks provide an elegant solution to the pile of coats, bags, and hats that build up in your entryway. Alternatively, they bring organization and beauty to any kitchen.
Ceiling-mounted hooks are perfect for indoor and outdoor use, allowing you to embrace your green thumb with hanging planters or get creative with strings of lights and other decor.
