Updated December 3, 2018

Many of you all requested that I do a mother-in-law or grandma gift guide, so here I am to deliver! I decided that I would combine the two because my mother-in-law is also a grandma to my kids!

This gift guide only has one “grandma-specific” type gift, and I left the rest very open-ended. These gifts are perfect for mother-in-laws with or without grandchildren. I thought about things my mother-in-law or mom would enjoy. Hopefully yours will too!

Gift Guide for the Mother-in-Law or Grandma

Photo Canvas // My mom requests photos of the kids every year. To make it easy, I like to print them on a canvas so it is ready to hang in her home. Snapfish currently has a great deal on canvas prints, where you can get 2 for 70% off! Get one for your parents and your in-laws! If you do not have kids, this is a great idea to give a wedding or family photo.

Alex & Ani Bracelet // I love Alex & Ani bracelets. They are so cute for stacking. This one is the “Because I love you, Grandmother” bracelet. I adore that it isn’t cheesy whatsoever, but is sentimental.

Skinnytaste One and Done Cook Book // I ordered this cookbook right after I broke my foot because I wanted really simple recipe ideas that only involved one pan/pot/etc. This is a winner! If your mother-in-law loves to cook healthy meals and wants simple ideas, she will love this.

Serving Bowls // My mother-in-law put serving bowls on her wish list this year and I love the look of these. They’re a medium size for snacks/salads, so it would be nice to grab these with a larger one to make a little set.

Block Letter Monogram Necklace // Every time I wear this necklace on Instagram stories, I get questions from women of all ages. I think this is a lovely gift idea for literally any woman on your list. If you’re stumped as to what to give your mother-in-law, this is a fail-safe gift.

Chenille Slippers // Who doesn’t love a pair of luxurious slippers? Chenille and faux fur? Yes, please. But wait until you see the price on these. They are so affordable! Grab these with the cardigan I linked below for a comfy cozy theme.

Yeti Tumbler // Everyone loves yeti tumblers. Seriously! They keep liquids hot or cold all day. This was my favorite thing to take to school when I taught because my water would stay cold and icy all day at work. Grab one of these in a fun color. If you’ve got a little extra time, find a local small business to personalize the yeti!

Barefoot Dreams Cardigan // These cardigans are pricey, but for good reason. They are unreal. So soft! Seriously any woman would enjoy this gift and feel super pampered.

Personalized Note Cards // Stationery is one of those things that you typically do not buy for yourself, but you always appreciate when you have it on hand. Grab her an artist-designed set of personalized notecards.

VINGLACE Stainless Steel Wine Insulator // I have one of these and I absolutely love it! They’re like a yeti for a wine bottle, and it’s so genius! If your mother-in-law loves entertaining or making sure her Chardonnay is the perfect chilled temperature, she will absolutely love this. It’s one of those “wow” gifts.


I hope your holiday shopping is easier with my little guide. Don’t forget to check out all of my holiday content for more gift ideas and inspiration!

I can’t always predict when a migraine attack wi I can’t always predict when a migraine attack will happen, but I do know they typically happen at the end of my monthly cycle. I used to stress knowing one could hit me at any minute, but not anymore! You all know how much I love my Nurtec® ODT (rimegepant) 75 mg, but it’s been even more of a stress relief to know I can take it preventively OR at the onset of pain. If I have important work deadlines or events and it’s during the week of my cycle, I like to take my @NurtecODT to prevent any possible migraine attacks. Migraine pain can’t stop me! 

Make sure to check out nurtec.com and talk to your doctor for more information! 

Individual results may vary. Nurtec ODT is for acute treatment of migraine and preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults. Prescription only. Don’t take if allergic to Nurtec ODT or any of its ingredients. The most common side effects were nausea (2.7%) and indigestion/stomach pain (2.4%).

Raise your hand if you’re already busy being the Raise your hand if you’re already busy being the family’s summer activity coordinator… 🙋‍♀️ It’s quite a juggling act trying to work, keep the kids busy, and be the snack dealer. Luckily, I have @shipt at my fingertips to get all those snacks replenished without ever having to leave my house! When I’ve run out of activity ideas, there’s always popsicles! If you need one thing taken off your plate, you need a Shipt membership. Anything for making the summer as relaxing as possible, am I right? #ShiptPartner
