A personalised sheet music print of your first dance song, printed on 100 % cotton rag paper. Cotton is the traditional gift for a 2nd wedding anniversary, so the paper itself is the gift — which makes this one of the few cotton anniversary gifts that still looks like art on the wall rather than a novelty.

Add your song, your names and your wedding date and we set the full score by hand. It works equally well as a cotton anniversary gift for him or for her, and it is a two year anniversary gift that neither of you has to explain to visitors.

Why cotton for a 2nd anniversary

The second wedding anniversary is traditionally marked with cotton. Most 2nd anniversary gifts stop at a cotton tea towel or a t-shirt; this is 310gsm cotton rag, hand-finished, archival, and made to outlast the marriage that prompted it.

Paper

We use thick 310gsm cotton paper which is archival, acid free and contains 100% cotton rag fibres, which are longer, stronger and more durable than wood fibres. Designed specifically for high quality fine art & photographic inkjet reproduction, it ensures a print life of more than 85 years, meeting the Fine Art Trade Guild lightfastness requirements of ‘6 or more on the Blue Wool Scale’. The paper has been hand-finished with a deckled edge. Rated 5/5 by conservatree.org.

Framing

Choose a frame and have it professionally framed in a bespoke box frame including float mounting the sheet music. The frame is specially designed with a white spacer to add depth to the artwork, and the float mounting is perfect for displaying the deckled edges of the print. The frame is made of solid wood, sustainably sourced and FSC® certified. Frame size is 10" x 12".
