Mugs for her morning coffee
- Mama, Grandma, Teacher and Book Lover Mugs: Retro Mama, Leopard Mama, Leopard Nana, Leopard Gigi and Floral Grandma, among others. The design is printed on both sides, and the mug is dishwasher and microwave safe in 11 oz or 15 oz.
- Custom Photo Mug | White Glossy Ceramic: upload a photo of the grandkids or a scan of a child's drawing and preview it on the mug. Available in 11, 15 and 20 oz.
Ornaments for her tree
- Merry Christmas Grandma Ornament 2026: red script with holly and "Loved Beyond Measure," dated 2026 or 2027. Give a new one each year and she builds a collection.
- Best Ever Christmas Ornament 2026 | Mom, Dad, Grandma & More: classic red and gold with "Best Mom Ever," "Best Grandma Ever," "Best Nana Ever" and more.
- World's Best Christmas Ornament | Great-Grandma, Auntie, Uncle, Godmother & More: an award-ribbon design with Great-Grandma, Nonna and Godmother options. It is undated, so it works any year.
Every ornament is glossy ceramic and comes in a circle, heart, snowflake or star shape with a gold-colored hanging string.
Photo keepsakes
- Custom Woven Photo Blanket: a heavy woven cotton throw with fringed edges, made from a family photo. It feels more like an heirloom than a printed fleece.
- Custom Framed Poster: a grandkid collage or a family photo on matte paper in a black, white or red oak frame, from 8″×10″ to 24″×36″, with hanging hardware included.
- Custom Photo Puzzle (110 to 1014 Pieces): choose 110, 252, 520 or 1,014 pieces. A family photo puzzle is a fun project for the week between Christmas and New Year's.
For the kitchen and quiet moments
- Custom Glass Cutting Board: scan Grandma's handwritten recipe card and print it on tempered glass that doubles as a serving tray. It comes in 8″×11″ or 11″×15″.
- Custom Hardcover Journal (Lined): a lined journal with a photo or her name on the matte wraparound cover, for recipes, prayers or the family stories you want written down.
- Custom Scented Soy Candle, 9 oz: a soy candle in a glass jar with your own label. Scents include Christmas Warmth, Cinnamon Vanilla, Apple Harvest and Clean Cotton, plus an unscented option.
Tips for gifts from the grandkids
- Use their art. A crayon drawing scanned or photographed in daylight prints beautifully on a mug or cutting board.
- Go big for great-grandmas. A framed poster or blanket is easier to see than a small photo.
- Match the nickname. If she is Gigi, Mimi or Nonna, choose that design rather than "Grandma."
- Bundle a set. A sweatshirt, a mug and a dated ornament make a complete gift.
