Relationship

• In a relationship, each member of the couple will often serve as the protector for the other and a source of strength, making a suit of armor a meaningful and appropriate theme for a gift. Turn an armored helmet, either real or novelty, upside down as a makeshift holder for a floral arrangement. Place a potted plant into the upturned holder as a creative and sentimental decorative touch on a gift of flowers.
  
  

Family

• Family members also often serve as sources of protection and strength for loved ones. If you have a particular family member, such as an older sibling, who often looked after you and protected you, incorporate a suit of armor into a gift as a sentimental and meaningful choice. Print out a picture of a man in a suit of armor and cut out the man's face from the armor. Place a photo of the gift recipient behind the cut out portion of the suit of armor picture, so the person's face shows through the cutout in the armor. Frame the photo as the finishing touch on the gift.
  
  

Friends

• Friends can serve as a great source of strength in your life. Show a true friend what she means to you by incorporating a suit of armor into a gift. Draw an outline of a suit of armor on a piece of paper. Fill in the space of the drawing by writing or typing all the words of what this friend means to you. This could include strength, trust, loyalty and even love. Frame the gift as a finishing touch. When hung on the recipient's wall, from far away a viewer may only see the suit of armor, but when the viewer approaches, all the reasons this friend is a knight in shining armor in your life will be revealed.
  
  

Children

• A parent serves as a lifetime protector and a source of strength for a child. Give the child a gift that reflects a suit of armor to serve as a continual reminder that you will always be there for them throughout his life. A small toy figurine of a knight in armor, a suit of armor key chain or even a photo of a suit of armor he can slip into his textbooks, wallet or bag will be an effective choice. Each time he sees or touches the trinket, he will be reminded of the constant source of strength he will always have in his life, you.
