The perfect wedding present

A few Christmases ago, I was totally stumped over what to give my husband. I think I'd bought him some lame utility item like socks and I wanted to supplement with something else "special." This is when I came across artist Ashley Goldberg. I bought one of her prints on Etsy, You Make Me Happy, which features two monsters touching hands and smiling at each other nervously. It was a huge hit, is now hanging in our bathroom, and it makes me think about how much I love my husband every time I brush my teeth.

I tell you this dorky/sappy story because it's wedding seasonand the Ashley G Etsy storehas tons of graphic, interesting, beautiful prints on sale now and they're all super affordable and great for gifts. Specifically, she's started creating custom portraits of couples, from photos, which (with a cool frame) could be the perfect wedding present*, something unique and thoughtful, that will maybe make your friends remember why they love each other for years.

*I kind of lied there. The perfect wedding present is the red Le Creuset pot Emily gave me, but this could come pretty close.
