Step 1
Look around her home to discover any collections she has. From certain figurines to sports memorabilia to certain types of dolls, she may have a love for something unique and unusual. Adding a piece to her collection is both thoughtful and personal.
-
Step 2
Pamper her. Ladies often like to go out to get their hair or nails done. Purchase a gift certificate to a local salon or spa, and make a day of it, joining her if she needs a ride, or would just like the company.
-
Step 3
Take her to lunch or dinner. Grandmother's adore spending time with their children and grandchildren, and especially as grandchildren grow up, grandmothers don't always see them as much. Treating her to lunch or dinner is a gift itself, but the greater gift will be quality time.

Step 4
Select a book--even one of your favorites--if your grandmother enjoys reading. For a sentimental gift, buy her a book that reminds you of your youth, such as a story she read to you when you were young.
-
Step 5
Follow a theme. Does grandma love a certain holiday, or traveling to a certain spot? Purchase something that follows the theme--a decoration, a photo or print--something you know she will treasure.

Step 6
Visit a custom framing shop and have some of her antique photos framed. The framing will preserve the actual photo while highlighting favorite memories and loved ones.

Step 7
Plan a trip to enjoy together. Whether it's to see relatives or a spot she's always wanted to visit, you'll enjoy spending time together while going on a travel adventure.
