50th wedding anniversary collection gift

[Percycat]

My mom is looking for ideas for a 50th wedding anniversary gift to give to friends. She is trying to come up with things she can collect and give 50.... kinda like 100 day celebrations. Ideas so far include: 50 Hershey kisses, 50 Hershey hugs, 50 marble (because they have lost some marbles).... She is looking for some other ideas to include in a gift collection.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Cute idea!
Have you checked Pinterest?

50 notes/ cards/ greetings from friends & family might be time-consuming to gather, but would be really appreciated, I'd imagine. :)

Depending on how close she is to them/ how much she wants to spend, maybe 50 $1 bills to use on lottery tickets/ etc.?

Maybe make a mix cd of 50 fun songs from the year they were married?

List of 50 favorite books to read - ideas could be collected from friends / family
50 lifesavers to celebrate those days they wouldn’t have made it through without each other
50 bandaids to celebrate all the scrapes they healed
50 cherries for all the events they’ve celebrated together

my only suggestion is to not pick 50 items that will end up as clutter. 50 lifesavers, dollars, hershey's kisses are great.

how about a slideshow of 50 photographs? If you can gather from family/friends photos they haven't seen - even better!
