28th anniversary gifts and ideas for spouses
What to give
Budget
- Buy some elegant placemats and cloth napkins and make a fancy, romantic dinner to share at home.
- Buy some silky-soft pillowcases to give your bed a whole new luxurious feel (great for late-night pillow talk, too!).
Splurge
- Turn your bedroom into a chic retreat with new, soft linens: high thread-count sheets, plush towels and washcloths, new curtains—and if you want to go all-out, a new mattress.
- Put together a spa-day basket with everything you need to feel taken care of at home.
