Answer
If you really want to give her something she would use and like, try a manicure or massage. It's something for HER and most women love that kind of thing!
Gifts for women can be a challenge simply because of their various interests and hobbies. Women 50-65 years old can especially be challenging as this time in their life can be different from woman to woman. Many women at this age are preparing to retire or have retired, becoming grandmothers or are already grandmothers, and enjoying their womanhood at this stage in their lives. So finding the perfect gift may just take a little preparation and even a little research. Below I have provided a few ideas and options to help you get started shopping for that special woman in your life whether it be your mother, grandmother or wife.
Gift Idea #1: Many women at this age enjoy collecting photos of their family and friends. A photo album, scrapbook or even picture frames are always nice gift ideas. Adding a photo of your family will make her day even more. If she does enjoy scrapbooking, consider giving her scrapbook supplies such as decorative paper, stickers, glue, and other small embellishments.
Gift Idea #2: Clothing is always a nice gift to receive. Consider buying your special lady a new robe or a new set of pajamas. Many women don't think about shopping for themselves. So a gift like this will show that you care. Slippers or even a blanket are also great gifts to consider.
Gift Idea #3: A vacation just might be what the woman in your life needs. If she has just retired and is looking for a way to unwind after years of work, consider booking her a getaway with some friends of hers. Many cruise lines cater to this age group, and the options are very affordable.
Gift Idea #4: Books are another option if she is wanting to relax and enjoy herself. It has probably been awhile since she has sat down and allowed herself to read a good book. Consider a title by her favorite author or even a historical book of the area she grew up in so she can enjoy fond memories of her childhood.
Gift Idea #5: Give your special woman a spa package as a gift. Taking a day to pamper herself will make her feel extra special and renewed. A simple package could include a facial and a manicure, or you could go all out with the works of a massage and a wrap.
Gift Idea #6: Find out what kind of hobbies she likes. If she enjoys gardening, give her a gift basket full of gardening goodies such as seeds, new tools, sunscreen, a knee pad, and a gardening book. If she likes to knit, buy her some new yarn and a new pattern book. If she likes to cook, consider a gourmet gift such as a new cookbook, new cookware, or even a cooking class she has always wanted to try.
Gift Idea #7: Gift cards might be a good gift for your lady. If she has a tight budget or a fixed income, the extra support in gift cards are sure to show you care. Consider stores like grocery stores, department stores, gas cards, and even the movies. This allows her to buy what she needs and enjoy herself on occasion also.
Gift Idea #8: Consider having a family get together as a gift to the woman in your life who is 50-65. Chances are family members are spread out, and time together might be uncommon. Spending the day together doing an outing or making a special meal may be the perfect gift of quality time.
Other gift ideas that might be the perfect gift depending on her interests include: candles, exercise equipment, a collection of their favorite songs, a journal, perfume or bath products, a new camera, and flowers.

What are good 'thank you' gifts for a baby shower?

gift for women over 65 image

NaeNae Jam

So my mom is throwing me a baby shower in a few months and I can't help but want everything just right. I am inviting about 65 people and need some good ideas for 'thank you' gifts to give everyone that comes. Candy is sweet, but . . . I want to put a little something more that really shows my appreciation! Any ideas?

Answer
wow, 65 guests! I don't even know 65 women i could invite to a shower lol!!

I am hosting my SIL's baby shower later this month for 30 odd guests and had made my own favours

I took one square sheet of scrapbooking paper and cut it into 4 squares. Each square is folded into a little rectangular parcel and the end taped up. I put one little chocolate frog into each parcel thru the still open end.
Then i made book marks on microsoft word and laminated them, that say

"This bookmark is given
to remember
Kelleyâs
new chapter in life"
[insert picture]
Thank you for sharing in this special day!
27 /09 /09

and also typed up this little phrase and printed it out and cut them out...

Thank you for your gift that we will soon see,
And thank you for your kindness and generosity!
Mum is sending this note of thanks because I am yet to arrive,
And even when I do, I wonât write good till Iâm five!

I then attached the book mark and thank you note to each side of the little parcel by punching a hole in the open end of the parcel and the top of the book mark and thank you phrase and used ribbon to secure it all together.

The end product looks really cute and 'classy' and appropriate for every woman. Plus its cheap to make but a bit time consuming but worth it. I like the hand made touch and think it brings something a little more special to the day.

You could also give each guest a fresh flower, like a gerbera, with a thank you note & wrapped chocolate attached to the stem with a ribbon as a gift as they leave. Plus they make great decorations during the shower, and are available in large quantities at a not too expensive price. Every woman likes flowers & chocolate!

I've also printed name tags that i will write on and pin on everyone as they arrive that say
"My name is ________
I am Kelley's ________" (mother, aunt, collegue, neighbour etc..)

this is so everyone knows who each other is especially when you have a large group. I think its a bit of an ice breaker.

I have also purchased 50 little plastic baby bootie charms off ebay and am using large baby nappy pins to secure one to each guest as they arrive. If they say 'baby' during the shower, they have to give a bootie pin to the person that caught them saying it. The person who has the most booties pinned on them at the end of the shower gets a prize!

hope that helps!
