I thought I would show you what I got the husband for a change. It was our 2nd wedding anniversary recently and while I don't usually follow any kind of wedding traditions (hence the green dress), I liked the idea of doing something with cotton. We try to stick with handmade and secondhand gifts so I was so excited to do a little trade and finally get him one of Anabela's sweet handmade ties. I love the embroidered name detail and thought the floral would be perfect for all the summer weddings we have this year. I also got him this great vintage cardigan.
