Five Star Gift Ideas

For a friend who is passionate about upsycling and repurposing, there are several thoughtful and meaningful gift options that you can consider for their wedding. These gifts will not only reflect their interests but also celebrate their love and commitment to each other. Here are a few ideas:

1. Custom-made furniture: Find a local carpenter or artisan who specializes in upcycling and repurposing furniture. Discuss with them the couple's taste and preferences, and have them create a unique piece like a coffee table, bookshelf, or sideboard using reclaimed materials. This gift will not only add character to the couple's home but also be a constant reminder of their wedding day.

2. Vintage and antique treasures: Look for vintage or antique items that can be repurposed as meaningful decor for the couple's new home. This could include a retro record player, an elegant vanity mirror, or a vintage suitcase that can be used as a stylish storage option. Consider the couple's personal style and select something that aligns with their taste.

3. DIY upcycling kits: If your friend enjoys getting creative, consider putting together a DIY upcycling kit. Include materials like old frames, reclaimed wood, fabric scraps, or jars, along with a guidebook or inspiration cards that suggest different upcycling projects. This gift will encourage their love for repurposing while providing them with endless possibilities to unleash their creativity together.

4. Upcycled artwork: Seek out local artists who specialize in creating beautiful artwork using reclaimed materials. Look for pieces like abstract sculptures made from recycled metal, collages made from repurposed magazine clippings, or wall hangings made with reclaimed wood. Not only will this gift enhance the couple's home decor, but it will also support local talent and sustainable artistry.

5. Workshop or class: For a truly unique gift, consider enrolling the couple in a workshop or class related to upcycling and repurposing. Look for local studios that offer courses on furniture restoration, recycled crafts, or creative reuse. This experience will allow the couple to learn new skills and explore their shared passion together, creating lasting memories.

Remember, while selecting a gift for your friend, it's important to consider their personal preferences and style. Focus on finding something that reflects their love for upcycling and repurposing while also celebrating their special day.

Or you can get her/him a star map with the date of the wedding.

Tracy Miller Fulks says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“This was such a beautiful gift for my son and his wife for the day they married. My only problem was I left it in the cart where I tried to buy a frame and they never got to see it. I have to order another one, it was too perfect of a gift 🎁👍❤️”
