I need a christmas idea for my mil...
I have to admit she cant stand me and I am just polite to her but I still need to get something from my dh, me and his stepdaughter.
She is 73yo, is starting dementia, is an alcoholic and loves to start fights with people (its actually pretty sad) she used to love to knit but cant really do that anymore.
So, suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: I need a christmas idea for my mil...
i went to costco and got her one of those nice boxes of occasion cards for my dh's grandma last year- she loved them because she doesnt get around much and she had cards on hand for every occasion - they were beautiful hand made cards for everything from wedding ot sympathy- they are about $20-25 and totally worth it
also maybe some bath products
slippers
a nice throw from homegoods
a pashmina wrap

What about arranging for house cleaning services or a plant/flowers/fruit of the month type gift?
Check Redenvelope.com -- they have lots of nice things.

I love the bottle and knitting needles, but I dont want to get down to her level.
Actually, the all occasion cards is a good idea.

Re: I need a christmas idea for my mil...
I think the occassions card is a good idea (I should get a box for myself  ) and what about a nice terry cloth or velour rob for the winter or a nice picture of maybe your stepdaughter your dh and yourself in a nice frame?
