Poster with photos
Grandmothers always carefully store photo albums, even though they have long been out of fashion. Delight her with a poster with the best family photos, portraits of loved ones, or just memorable shots. Thick cardboard, cork sheet or magnetic board are suitable as a base.

Pincushion
If your grandmother’s hobby is sewing, then such a gift will come in handy. A pincushion is a useful and necessary attribute for those who sew. You can make it in the form of a pillow or in the form of some fruit or vegetable, for example, a tomato. Such a pincushion will look more interesting, and manufacturing will not take much time and labor.
To make it you will need a small piece of fabric, thread, and filling. You can take any fabric, even a cut from some old thing will do. Even the youngest child can sew such a pincushion.
Candy bouquet
If your grandmother loves sweets, even an ordinary box of chocolates can be presented in a much more original way. You will need corrugated paper, packing sheets, glue and all kinds of decorations.
The easiest way to make tulips is from several corrugated petals and stems from floral wire. And as you start to get better at it, add more complex flowers to your bouquet.

Mat with LED strip
With such a birthday gift, grandma will see exactly where she is going at night in the apartment. All you need for this is a skein of thick yarn, a hook of the right size and an LED cord.
The technology is very simple: you simply knit a ring in a circle according to the principle of a napkin, but at the same time tie a cord. Start with eight stitches and knit stitches very easily. If you see that the ring is starting to tighten, add a couple of yarn overs evenly along the row.

DIY birthday gift for dad
Travyanchik
A small miracle made from an old sock, soil and grass seeds will be a good gift in winter and early spring. After a few days of watering, such a herb will produce fresh grass that will remind you of summer and warm days.
Embroidery ribbons
A cute picture embroidered with ribbons will melt the heart of your beloved grandmother. If this is a new experience for you, then stores sell ready-made kits, but you can make the simplest drawings yourself. The main thing is to stock up on ribbons of different thicknesses and a needle with a wide eye.
First, stretch the outline on the hoop and outline the design with a pencil. To prevent the edges of the ribbon from unraveling, they are carefully burned with a lighter, and to prevent the ribbon from fidgeting in the needle, tie a knot near the eye. If at first you can’t embroider some complex elements, lay them out like this and secure them with thread.

How to make a birthday card for grandma from granddaughter
Girls do wonders! This is how a postcard for grandma turns into a fluttering butterfly. And in order to make such an amazing gift for grandma, you need colored paper. By the way, you can choose the color of the postcard!
Author https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN1sf7JpObE
Let's make a template!
1. Fold an A4 sheet of paper in half.
2. Then we bend each edge in half, towards the fold line (in the middle).
3. Expand the sheet. We bend only the edges on both sides. This is the base template. To ensure that the base has the desired shape, fold the sheet again, bending it in the middle. Then we bend the workpiece again, lengthwise.
5. On the side where there is no fold line in the middle, cut the corner in an arc.
6. We fold the workpiece, draw 2 arc-shaped lines connected to each other. We unfold the workpiece and fold it so as to bring all the corners together. Cutting corners.
7. Unfold the workpiece. Using the template, cut out a base blank from another sheet of paper.
8. Bend the edges. We place a sheet of colored paper inside the blank, slightly different in shade.
9. Turn the workpiece over and mark the protruding corners with a pencil. We lower the liner down half a centimeter and draw a line on it along the bottom line of the base. In the same way, pull the liner up 0.5 cm and draw a line.
10. Cut off the edges of the liner along these lines and glue it to the inside of the base.
11. Take another sheet. We place it under the side of the workpiece. Draw the outline of the side. We take out the sheet and draw it in parallel, only 0.5 cm less than the contour line. Cut out this part of the card.
12. We will need 2 of these parts. Glue them to the sides of the base.
Making butterflies:
1. Fold 3 small leaves in half. We draw 2 butterfly wings on them. Only on each leaf the wings should be smaller: large, medium, small.
2. Use these butterfly templates to cut out. You need to fold a sheet of dark pink paper and place it in the middle of the template, and then cut it along the contour line of the wings. We make medium-sized wings light pink. Small ones are white. I give you templates to help you.
3. Glue the medium-sized wings onto the large wings folded in half. And on the middle ones we glue the small ones. And we will need 2 such wing blanks.
Making a postcard:
1. Glue tapes to the sides. On top of the tapes, on one and the other side, we glue the wings with double-sided tape.
2. On the inside of the card we make a congratulatory inscription. Glue hearts of different sizes and colors. We draw stripes from the hearts, like ribbons of balloons. We decorate everything with rhinestones.
We tie the edges of the ribbon, trimming the long edges if necessary.
The elegant card is ready! Options for congratulations:
Case for glasses
A great idea for not only a beautiful, but also a very useful gift for your grandmother for her birthday, which is easy to make with your own hands. You will only need a small piece of felt - it is soft, pleasant to the touch, does not scratch, absorbs shock and does not require processing of the cuts.
Cut out two parts to the size of the glasses and stitch them together with a bright contrasting thread. Make a small flap and clasp on top so that the case can be closed. Decorate it with beads, buttons, cute felt figures, embroidery or other decor.

Photo frame made of reels
If your grandmother is still a fan of needlework, then she will definitely be pleased with a beautiful photo frame. You will need a sheet of thick bookbinding cardboard, thread, needle cases, buttons and colorful spools. Cut the base to the size of the photo so that each side is at least 4-5 cm larger. There should be two such rectangles, and one will have an opening for the photo. When you glue both parts, leave one side free to insert the photo card. Decorate the frame with spools, ribbons, bows, pincushions and even small scissors.
You can use any other little things in the same way. For example, small pencils, keyboard buttons, corks, construction sets, small toys, shells, broken dishes and mirrors.

Coffee table
A craft for a grandmother from a grandson involves a more brutal execution. An example would be a coffee table made from fruit crates. To do this you will need 4 plywood products:
- Each container is varnished, placed on its long side and secured with the short side to the bottom of the adjacent box.
- Glass is installed on top.
- Books, baskets for needlework, vases, and dolls are placed in the resulting shelves.
So that the original table can move from place to place without problems, it is better to attach furniture wheels to the bottom. You can complement the piece of furniture with a wall shelf to match the table.
Scented candle
A fragrant candle will brighten up grandma's evenings and fill the house with an atmosphere of warmth and comfort. If you can’t buy wax or paraffin, then simply melt down old candles. But before starting work, put film or parchment on the table so that you don’t have to wash the surface later.
To make it easier to insert the wick, dip it in wax, roll it out, straighten it and let it dry. Put a special washer on it and place it in a jar, wrapping it around a stick or pencil on top.
Add essential oils and any decor to the melted wax - dried flowers, orange slices, coffee, glitter, glass balls. You can use dyes and fill the candle in layers. After that, let it dry well, shorten the tail of the wick and give it to your grandmother for her birthday!

Budget Gift Ideas
Grandmother does not expect expensive surprises from her grandchildren; the attention and love that close relatives give her is much more important to her. If you don’t have enough money to buy an expensive item, don’t worry - grandma will appreciate any gesture of attention.
Nice budget gifts for a woman aged 60-65:
- stylish case for glasses;
- a teapot with the inscription “Our granny’s best tea”;
- mobile phone case with a picture or name;
- beautiful sugar bowl;
- unusual keychain;
- notebook with leather cover;
- an assortment of several types of coffee or herbal tea;
- flower in a jar;
- original candlestick;
- medal “The best granny in the world”;
- set of honey;
- soft bedside rug;
- photo frame in the form of a family tree;
- a sofa cushion with a photo of the grandchildren;
- comfortable slippers;
- floor vase for flowers;
- kitchen scales;
- personalized glass for wine or juice;
- set of bath towels;
- warm mittens or gloves;
- glass containers for bulk products.
If you think that the gift you have chosen is too modest, collect several inexpensive but useful things, package them beautifully or put them in a wicker basket and give them to the hero of the day. Remember that for grandma the main thing is not the cost of the surprise, but your attention.
Book of recipes
Your grandmother probably has an old notebook with her favorite family recipes that everyone still uses. Why not make a nice thick cover for it? Just don’t overuse the decor, because it won’t be too practical!
You can completely organize your grandmother's notes and make a cover with rings or any other fastener inside. Cover the cover made of thick cardboard with fabric, decorate it with embroidery and mark the binding.
To attach larger pieces, use craft wire. Seal the inside sides of the cover with the same cardboard covered with fabric so that nothing sticks out.

Jars for cereals and spices
Simple glass jars can be transformed with paints and decoupage. But first, wash them well with citric acid and degrease the outside with alcohol. Paint the top of the jars with thick acrylic paint using a sponge or wide brush.
For patterns, choose beautiful napkins or special paper for decoupage, remove the top layer and soak it in PVA glue. Carefully smooth the napkin over the jar with a brush or small roller so that there are no air bubbles. Use lace, stamps, ribbons and other decor, and at the end cover everything with varnish.

Beautiful birthday card for grandma from her grandson
Boys like to make things. With their creative vision, it is difficult to come up with just one idea. Therefore, I will show several options at once. Each of them is very simple to make, but the postcard looks very cool!
With photo!
The postcard is made very quickly. The only difficulty is inflating such tiny balloons. But if someone helps, it's not a problem! By the way, such tiny balls can be easily made from a ball cut into 2-4 parts. Then you need to stretch the piece slightly, apply it to your mouth and blow on it forcefully. When the balloon is inflated, you need to quickly wrap your fingers around the edges, spin the balloon and tie the tail with thread. Or inflate very small balloons. But for this it is better to use a pump.
- We inflate the balloons.
- We are looking for a suitable photo with our grandson.
- We cut out around the outline of the grandson and glue this part into one of the corners of the card.
- We tie the tails of the balls with thin ribbons.
- Glue the balls onto double-sided tape.
- We collect the ribbons together and tie them with ribbon.
- Glue the ribbons to the card.
All that's left is to sign the postcard!
Flowers
Flowers, leaves, stems and birds are cut out of thin felt. At the same time, the shape of the blanks is very simple: flowers are circles, of different colors and sizes; birds and leaves are droplets, only the droplets for birds have sharp, curled edges.
- Cut out circles.
- We mark on the card where the flowers will be located.
- The first thing we glue to the card is the stems and leaves.
- Above the stems and on top of them, glue the largest circles first.
- Glue smaller circles on top of the larger ones. Glue the smallest circles on top of them.
- Glue buttons in the middle of the small circles. It would be good if the buttons were in the shape of flowers.
- Place the birds on top of the card. We glue the birds’ beaks next to the blanks, and on top of the blanks – eyes, wings, “cheeks”.
- All that remains is to glue a bow on the stems and you can sign the card.
By the way, the signature to the postcard can be quite original. For example, like this:
I think any granny is the best at cuddling and spoiling her grandchildren!)
