Unusual Gifts for Couples

Ditch traditional gifts for couples and find them something unusual.

Tired of giving couples the same boring gifts at special occasions? Consider purchasing gifts that are unusual, something couples may never dream of wanting, but may really find use for once they receive them. These unusual gifts are appropriate to be given to couples on holidays, weddings and anniversaries.

Rings

If money is no problem, give a special couple the gift of two rings symbolizing their relationship. The Ties That Bind Rings are available in silver or gold. The rings contain an engraved rope around the band, ending in a knot . The rings are designed to show age and appear vintage, looking better as they are worn for a while. Available from sizes five to 11, the rings retail for $150 for a silver ring and $1800 for a gold one.

Coffee Mugs or Pillows

Purchase a set of unusual coffee mugs or pillows for an important couple in your life. Couple coffee mugs or pillows display a picture is broken in half, with each item containing half the picture. For example, one mug can have a man riding a bike with a basket full of hearts while they are falling out of the basket across the cup, and the second can have a woman walking behind the heart trail picking them up and placing them in a basket. One pillow can have a man sitting in a row boat with a fishing pole extended into the water and the other can have a woman standing on shore tossing hearts into the water which are being hooked by the fishing lure.

Key Chain Holders

For the couple in your life who are always losing their keys, consider an unusual key holder as a gift. His and hers key holders come with two wall plates, one with a woman on the front and the other with a man. On each wall plate is a place to insert a special key that comes with the key chain. The couple can place their keys on the key chain and when they get home insert the special key into its wall plate, ensuring that the keys will not be lost.

Rainforest Tree

For the couple who care tremendously about the environment, consider letting them own a tree in the Brazilian rain forest. The gift package contains a framed certificate of ownership for one tree in the rain forest, located in Biaciu, Brazil. A letter accompanies the certificate congratulating the recipient for receiving the gift. A map is included that shows where the tree is within the rain forest.
