Or other woman over 60yo and has everything?

I give a photoworks calendar each year but I'd like to get her something else. I've got nothing. What are you getting your MIL/M/GMA/Aunt?

Museum piece for pills, pins, whatever. The Smithsonian and CMNH have a lot of really beautiful little boxes.

We also give Smithsonian magazine because it's so interesting to such a wide variety of folks.

If you search "personalized family tree print" a bunch come up. Perfect gift for the Mom/Grandma or MIL who has everything (or doesn't have room for more stuff!)

Enjoy!
