Holiday Grandparent Gift Ideas

Tracking Pixel

gradparent-holiday-gift-ideasThe holidays are here! It’s time to start thinking about special gifts for people in your life and today I’m talking about Holiday Grandparent Gifts thanks to Walmart Photo sponsoring this post. Seeing my parents and Kevin’s parents as grandparents is one of the best things. It is so awesome to watch them interact with Brooke and I can’t wait for them to meet their new little grandchild. I especially love seeing them with Brooke around the holidays. Last year was so incredibly fun to watch Brooke enjoy unwrapping gifts and spending time with family. We live about four hours away from our parents, so every time we get to see them is super special. I always try to think of unique gifts for others, as well as getting them something off of their list. Here are a few Holiday Grandparent Gift Ideas:

 

img_9819Photo Book

This is a great gift for grandparents that don’t live close to you. I created a book of Brooke from the past year for our parents. I made sure to include photos of them with her and some memories they weren’t able to be there for due to distance. I think the everyday little moments are so incredibly precious and I love how Walmart Photo Books allow you to capture all of these in one place. You can order one that is “8×10”, “5×7”, “8×8”, or “12×12” and depending on the type of cover you select, you can add up to 150 pages of pictures.  The book I created was a hardcover book with 25 pages. You grab a Same Day Single-Sided Photo Book on Rollback for $10 through 1/3!

 

Personalized Calendar

A personalized calendar is also a great gift option. It is perfect for grandparents’ office space at work or at home. I love how you can craft each month with special memories from that time the previous year. This can hold so much meaning to be able to see one year back and the difference a year can make. An 8x5x11 Photo Calendar is also on Rollback for $10 through 1/3.

 

img_9821Canvas

Both sets of Brooke’s grandparents have canvases in their house so this is always a great option. This can get a little trickier, but you can take note of the size and space of other ones in their house and go from there. For example, if they have an old canvas in a hallway, just note the size and order them a fresh updated one! The 11×14 Canvas is on Rollback for $24.96 and  the 16×20 is on Rollback for $34.96.

 

Photo Blanket

We made one of these for Kevin’s parents a few years ago and they loved it. It is such a great way to display fun family memories. This blanket got so many compliments and always sparks a fun memory for the whole family to talk about. It is a great gift that promotes conversation as well!

 

Mug

A mug is such a traditional grandparent gift, but you can never really have too many, especially if they have adorable faces on them. This is a classic that is a great little gift, and even better, most mugs are just $10!

 

img_9822You can grab the majority of these items at any of the 3,500 Walmart Photo locations nationwide or order online. Many of the gifts are available for free same-day pick-up or free shipping to store. This is perfect for last minute shopping!

    This is our daughter’s firs Christmas, so a book filled with photos from the past 9 months is a great gift idea for all of your grandparents 🙂 #sweepstakes

    I LOVE personalized gifts. They are so much more special than just going to the store and picking something out. That and DIY gifts (but these are kinda the same thing). Great suggestions that I will probably be using this holiday season!

    I would love to make calendars for my boys’ grandparents. They’re fun to put together, but it’s sooo hard to limit the photos. So many great ones that I hate to leave out. I usually end up printing out the ones that aren’t in the calendar and give them along with the calendar.

  • Life with you is certainly never boring! ❤️

Through every hard season and every joy, you’ve been right by my side.

I’m so thankful for the man and husband you are. You encourage me, push me, lead me and always serve our family. 

You are an amazing example of Christ’s love to us and I’m incredibly proud to call you mine.

You’re my very best friend and doing life with you is so fun. You always bring the smiles and the laughter.

I love the life we’ve built and I can’t wait to experience the rest of this life with you. I love you so much, Happy 15th Anniversary @kevinclarke15!
  • The older I get, the more I realize wellness doesn’t have to mean a complicated routine. 🤍#BarleansPartner

I’m focusing on simple habits that actually fit into my everyday life — morning walks, staying hydrated, and adding @Barleans Seriously Delicious Omega-3 Fish Oil into my routine.

I love that it’s a liquid format, tastes great, and feels like an easy swap instead of adding another pill to my day. ✨

You can find Barlean’s at Walmart!🛒

  • Back-to-school shopping for a junior high girl is about so much more than checking supplies off a list. ✏️🎒✨ #pOpshelfPartner

As moms, we know it’s about helping our kids feel prepared, confident, and excited for a new school year.

Brooke and I found so many cute, affordable back-to-school finds at @popshelf — from school supplies and organization must-haves to accessories and fun extras.

I love that we could find everything in one stop, and at prices that let her pick things that fit her personality without blowing the budget. 🤍 Those little details really do make the first day feel a little more exciting.

  • Save or splurge? 👀

I finally compared the viral Amazon shorts to my Vuori favorites... and here’s my take. 💕

The Amazon pair is a great budget-friendly option (just make sure to size up!), but when it comes to comfort, Vuori still takes the win for me.

If you’ve been debating between the two, this side-by-side comparison should make the decision a whole lot easier.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links! 🎀 And tell me... are you team save or team splurge? 👇🏼

  • Okay Target... you really got me with these ❤️✨

I found 4 maxi dresses that are cute and easy to throw on. You’ll keep reaching for these all summer. Great for running errands, heading to brunch, vacation, or just trying to look put together without thinking too hard. 😂

Now help me decide... which one’s your favorite? 1, 2, 3, or 4?👇🏼
