Today I’m sharing third anniversary gift ideas. The traditional gift theme for the 3rd wedding anniversary is leather. The modern gift theme is crystal. But I’m only going to cover the traditional gifts so this post is all about leatha.
Let’s begin with the ladies. While looking for ideas, I noticed that chicks have more colorful leather gift options than guys. But while the ladies have more colorful options, men have a bigger selection of leather items.
watch • ballet flats • e-reader case • passport holder • wallet • tote • bracelet
Some other ideas for her:
planner • jewelry box • pouch • wristlet
wallet • journal • passport holder • iPad case • belt • briefcase • phone case • watch
Some other ideas for him:
valet • beer holster • cuff link display case • tie display case • watch display case • football • motorcycle jacket • travel kit • gloves
If your budget allows, you can always take your gifts to the next level. Example: give your husband a football AND tickets to see his favorite college or NFL team. Another example: give your wife a passport holder AND tickets to a surprise vacation in another country (or a cruise). Just make sure she has a passport to put in the passport holder.
Since it’s your anniversary and all, it would be sweet to engrave or personalize the gift you purchase for your lover (assuming it can be engraved or personalized). You could do this on the inside band of a watch, inside lining of a tote or briefcase, etc.
Perhaps you and your spouse want to do a mutual gift. Here are some ideas I came up with:
photo album • furniture • ottoman • picture frame • wine carrier
Happy third wedding anniversary to you and yours!
Other anniversary gift ideas:
1st wedding anniversary
2nd wedding anniversary
4th wedding anniversary

This is so cute! For our third my husband got me a leather family bible with our names and wedding date engraved. I got him a handmade leather key chain with the coordinates of where we first met (a building that has seen been torn down, so sad!).
Great ideas with leather–all usable but can be personalized!
I love this! I might have to send this to my husband so he can start saving! 😉
Hello Kate Spade wallet!! Love all your ideas for the ladies and I agree these would make great presents for any occasion. As far as posting goes, I am here whenever I get an email that you have a new post so doesn’t really matter if it’s weekend or weekday 😉
I love that Madewell tote – and I think Joe would love that briefcase! Too bad we’re only coming up to our 2nd anniversary (but I’ll definitely be saving this list for next year!)
We typically don’t do the traditional gift exchange for our anniversary, but I could get behind some of these! 😉
We just celebrated our 3rd anniversary and we did a joint gift of a new leather sofa! 🙂
we havent been doing gifts for anni’s except cards and dinner etc. although gifts are nice, we would rather just exchange nice notes etc for our anni.
HOWEVER. I love your options! I will take any of those for…say a birthday 🙂
Um, who wouldn’t want any of those gifts?! I could use a new Kate Spade wallet and that bag is adorable. We had our 3rd anniversary earlier this year and I got my husband some new leather loafers, oxfords, work shoes, whatever. They were needed. He didn’t get me anything leather. He needs to get on board.
I don’t read on the weekends too much but I would for you. 🙂
How perfectly timed is this post? I just celebrated my third anniversary! He’s really hard to shop for, I was on a tight budget, and I really wanted to stick with leather. I ended up making him a luggage tag from scrap leather, It turned out really well!
These are great ideas! We are celebrating 4 years soon – I’d LOVE some ideas! 🙂
fun! we just celebrated #5 and my hubby totally surprised me with a gorgeous wooden chevron necklace!
I love that you stuck with the traditional theme of leather. You found some great stuff!
