1. Windchimes
There’s something about the sounds of windchimes that we find comforting. If your grandparents might agree, this option would be perfect for Christmas. It’s not too big, it’s stylish, and has a great tone.
2. Grandchildren silhouette art
“Grandparents” can mean YOUR grandparents your parents that are now grandparents. If you’re shopping for the latter, we love something personalized to your kids and their grandkids. This silhouette piece is a sweet and simple way to celebrate family for Christmas.
3. Butcher Box
Butcher Box is a great gift idea because they have so many options to choose from! Every option features high quality meats from sources that prioritize the quality of life for the animals they harvest, which makes the flavor all the better in our opinion.
4. Grandchildren ornaments
Featuring grandchildren names on an ornament is a thoughtful gift that will live on year after year. We love these handmade ones from Etsy, but there are plenty of other options to suit any aesthetic.
5. Towel warmer
Warm towels are a small luxury that seem to make life so much better. Get your grandparents this chic towel warmer to treat them to a toasty towel to keep the chill of winter days at bay.
6. Doormat
A grandkids-friendly doormat is a cute, fun gift for any grandparent that is crazy for their grandkids! We love the sass of this option, but there are plenty to choose from.
7. Roomba vacuum
Convenience only becomes more important as people age, who really wants to whip out a vacuum every week? the iRobot Roomba is the perfect present to free your grandparents from the shackles of sweeping and vacuuming.
8. House shoes
House shoes are a great idea for the grandparents that seem to have it all. They’re comfy, they’re cozy, they’re easy to wear, what’s not to love?
9. Massage gun
Aches and pains creep up on you as you get older (we wouldn’t know, we will forever be 24 but that’s what we hear), so why not gift your grandparents a massage gun? This one comes with multiple head attachments and an easy-to-store carrying case.
10. Recipe book
Passing on family recipes is one of the most heartwarming traditions we can think of, and what better way to start the trend than by gifting your grandparents a recipe book designed for exactly that? This option not only has pages designed for written recipes, but it also has pages where you can attach original handwritten recipes that have been handed down.
11. Weighted blanket
Weighted blankets are unbeaten cold weather gear. This navy option is plush, soft, and heavy, the ideal combination grandparents are sure to love.
12. Personalized photo calendar
So the picture we found uses engagement photos, which is cute, but picture this calendar with photos of you, grandkids, pets, or family portraits. It makes for a sweet Christmas gift for anyone who still appreciates the analog side of life.
13. Personalized wall clock
This personalized wall clock is a classic element that will work with just about any design aesthetic. The personalized names and marriage date commemorate and celebrate your grandparents coming together in a way that doesn’t feel overly sweet or sappy.
14. Wine of the Month Club membership
Maybe your grandparents like to relax and unwind with a glass of wine. In that case, we recommend you check out the gift memberships available at the Wine of the Month Club! They offer different selections of wine and allow you to customize the frequency and number of bottles you choose to send.
15. House drawing
While we see this photo shows a church, this artist also does drawings of houses! Commissioning a drawing of their first house, wedding venue, or church where they got married is a sweet, simple way to honor your grandparents’ history without adding any unnecessary clutter.
16. Photo box
This elegant wood box is the perfect size to keep photos in. For Christmas, we’d recommend starting off the photo pile with some pictures of you and your family inside to make a thoughtful holiday present.
17. Apron
Most grandpas love grilling. There’s just something about the grill that calls to them. Gift your grandpa this apron this Christmas to show just how much you appreciate his culinary endeavors!
18. Pet portrait
This is one of our favorite options on the list. Commission a pet portrait of your grandparents’ pet (past or present) to make for a heartfelt gift they’re sure to appreciate.
19. Gloves
If your granddad still loves yard work, wood work, or really any kind of work, consider gifting him some leather work gloves. They’re durable and the perfect practical present to save your grandpa’s hands some abuse.
20. Mugs
If your parents are transitioning from regular parents (boring) to grandparents (exciting), these mugs make a great gift to announce the coming grandbabies as a festive surprise! We love the simplicity of these, but there’s options to suit just about any style available online.
