Gift for Awesome MIL

I need help please! I would like to do something special and thoughtful for my mother in law for her Xmas gift.

She's amazing and she's had a rough year so I'd like to do something for her that will make her feel loved and special.

I'm open to making gifts, to something that requires time and effort.

I've previously given her a photograph album with all of her grandkids and family in, so unfortunately that's out. I've done spa days, a posh handbag, etc.

Any help much appreciated!

Thank you!

If she likes that sort of thing why not do a personalised calendar with different photos of all her loved ones in?

Afternoon tea somewhere nice?

Can all the grandchildren go to a pottery place and do handprints On a bowl / platter plate?

Flower subscription
Personalised jewellery
Cashmere blanket, socks and hot water bottle set
Rose bush (with a name that could be special or relevant to her) and bench for the garden
Personalised planted with all her favourite flowers a bit like this www.plantabox.co.uk/webshop/occasion-crates/mother-s-day/personalised-windowsill-crate-planter/

I once met someone who had a bracelet with the birthday month stones of each of her family members. She loved it as every time she looked at it she thought of them.

I think it was custom made so it may be out of your budget but I really loved the idea.

Yes I had "mothering" bracelet made for MIL

One strand said "Nannie" the other had the initials of all the DGC. It was custom made but not particularly expensive.

Tickets to a show and a slap up meal?
