Default I need inspiration

I have only recently got into wood carving and am really enjoying it. I think making something beautiful from a lump of timber is really worthwhile. I want to make a special gift for a friends wedding present but I cant think of what I should do. I want to do include some interlocking rings into the design but cant think of how.

Any ideas or suggestions?

You may get some ideas by looking at some of the patterns for love spoons.
