Grandma to Be Hostess Gift

in Baby Showers

My mother is throwing us a shower and I want to give her a personalized gift.  This is her first grandchild and she is SUPER excited.  I would love to give her a personalized grandmother gift; either something I make or purchase, I am just completely stumped as to what.  Any cool ideas?

 Thanks!

    You could make a grandma quilt if you sew.  Embroider baby's name on one square.  Save other squares for length, weight, date, a picture.  All around you can either do fabrics you like or she would like....or something that relates to the season the baby is born or the fact that it is a girl and all little girl things (sugar 'n spice). 

    You can also have a picture frame engraved with Grandma and your DD's name.  Then take a pic every so often of the two of them so she can change out the photos.

    The quilt is a great idea and I am crafty but I definitely do not sew.  I was thinking a frame too so maybe that will be it.

    Thanks!

    I am making "Grandma" themed baskets for each my mom and DH's mom.  Each basket has a story book about Grandma's, a bib that says "I love Grandma", #1 Grandma mug, A Grandma Photo Album,  a picture frame that says "Me and My Grandma", etc.  I am excited to give it to them tomorrow!

    The Rosemary Company has some great ideas for grandma and grandpa, including some cute frames.   https://www.rosemarycompany.com/4942.html#Grandparents

    They also have a new daddy toolbelt that is ADORABLE!  A lot of wives buy one for their DH or sometimes the Mom of the Dad to be buys one for the shower.  Good luck.

    If you have a Things Remembered near you...see what they have there for her.  Maybe a frame you can have personalized where she can put a pic of herself and LO.

    No ideas, I just wanted to say that your post title made me giggle because I read it as if you were giving away the grandma AS the hostess gift, LOL.
