She will still complain... You don't know my mil... the only Tiffanys item she has is from us... She buys herself necklaces similar to above but if it's from us she wants expensive items... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438660 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:57:24 +0000 LBee 2438660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: It's at least a start. Just tell her you knew that was the only kind of jewelry she wore and you wanted to buy her something comparable to what you bought your mother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438655 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:55:18 +0000 BandDmommy 2438655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LBee: She won't be able to purchase anything there for the gift card price.. But that's on her I guess... The necklace is $50 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438643 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:51:47 +0000 LBee 2438643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: I mean if she told you what she likes, it makes sense to say that you were going to buy her a necklace, but wanted to take head to her last comments on the gift you gave.</p> <p>ETA: I wish my MIL would give me direct guidance. I'm always just blindly shopping for her and never know if she even likes my gift (we live far away). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438630 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:43:50 +0000 BandDmommy 2438630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LBee: definitely an option.:: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438624 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:41:14 +0000 LBee 2438624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: Just give her a Tiffany's gift card for the price you would have paid on the necklace. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438622 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:40:53 +0000 BandDmommy 2438622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: that's cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438621 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:40:38 +0000 Mamaof2 2438621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: as a side story when I was in 8th grade my BFF got her step mom a pearl bracelet from the dollar store and put it in a fancy box - she LOVED it!!!! Had no clue where it came from :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438618 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:39:39 +0000 Mamaof2 2438618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: put it in a Tiffany's box :silly: :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438615 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:38:19 +0000 BandDmommy 2438615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: she told me she prefers Tiffanys </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438614 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:37:58 +0000 BandDmommy 2438614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: yes, both do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438604 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:33:23 +0000 MamaG 2438604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does MIL wear necklaces? I'd love to get my mom something like this but she doesn't wear jewelry aside from stud earrings and a watch :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438600 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:32:52 +0000 avivoca 2438600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm thinking about getting them Keep bracelets with the first initials of their grandchildren. I might roll it into how we announce what #2 is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438594 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:29:34 +0000 Mamaof2 2438594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: well if you gave her something like this before and she told you she didn't like it I wouldn't buy it again.</p> <p>What didn't she like about it? I wonder if you turned it into a key chain if she would like it more? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438587 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:27:31 +0000 snowjewelz 2438587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: I think you just can't win! I'd just get them the same thing... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438586 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:26:50 +0000 petunia354 2438586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like it's a lose lose situation so do whatever is easiest for yourself!! Whatever happened to the sentiment that it's the thought that counts, right? :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438579 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:22:06 +0000 BandDmommy 2438579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: I'm afraid if I don't give her same gift as my mom she will throw a fit. Regardless if she then tells me she doesn't like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438570 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:18:33 +0000 rachiecakes 2438570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://www.lisaleonard.com/cross-bar-birthstone-necklace-sterling-silver-10k-gold-prd-lpd0077-si-10/" rel="nofollow">http://www.lisaleonard.com/cross-bar-birthstone-necklace-sterling-silver-10k-gold-prd-lpd0077-si-10/</a></p> <p>I love this one, but not sure if my mother would wear it either. She's the difficult one for me.<br /> I think I would give anyway. Then everyone gets the same and there's no this one was gifted jewelry and this one flowers, etc. </p> <p>My grandmother had a grandmother's ring and she wore it all the time. She absolutely loved it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mothers-day-gift-for-grandma-1#post-2438558 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:09:04 +0000 BandDmommy 2438558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was thinking about getting necklaces like this for my mom and MIl for Mother's Day. It has initial for all 3 grandkids. Last time I gave my MIL a necklace from etsy she told me she didn't like it. I'm still planning on getting this for my mother. Do I go ahead and buy one for MIL knowing she will complain? Get her flowers (complained about as well)? Or just a card? I can never win.... </p> [attach=5449/16/o1ma34.337x600.image.png]
