Nanny Gifts

Grandma, Nan, Grannie, Nannie ... what does the word mean to you? The world's best babysitter? Superb Sunday lunches? Endless patience for reading bedtime stories or playing with a favourite toy? Or a kind heart, a listening ear and wonderful stories of times gone by? Whatever we call her, there is no-one quite like her. So, when it comes to choosing a gift for her, Grandma deserves something special. At Oh So Cherished we have lots of charming and original gifts, both pretty and practical. If Grandma has a large brood to keep up with, we have some super diaries, calendars, address and birthday books to help her keep on top of all the family birthdays and get-togethers. For Grans who love gardens, we have some sweet garden signs, handy notebooks and planners. Help her keep her kitchen organised with an attractive and practical recipe file or journal; make sure those secret family recipes are recorded for posterity! There's no better way to pass on family news and keep everyone in touch than a good old-fashioned letter. It is a real treat to write or receive a letter from a loved one on beautiful paper; we have gorgeous leather writing cases, stationery sets and notecards that make it a joy to put pen to paper. Add a pretty fashion pen or a quality fountain pen for a super gift. As the family grows, Grandmas have so many precious mementos to treasure: cards, photos, first drawings, little gifts. We have some lovely keepsake boxes such as 'Gran's Memory Box', just made to store souvenirs away safe and sound. You can even personalise the lid with your own message. For a special occasion, there is nothing so welcome as a personalised gift. A framed newspaper, a personalised bottle of wine or champagne, an engraved compact or a calendar with her name on shows you have put real thought into her gift. Choose a specially pretty card and you have a gift that wil make her day. For far-flung families we can even gift-wrap your present with gorgeous paper and ribbon and send it direct to her home to arrive on the special day...because she's worth it!
