The 85th anniversary is a rather solid and important anniversary for both the birthday girl and her relatives. Therefore, the choice of a gift should be treated with special care and love. This article will reveal the basic gift ideas for a mother-in-law, mom and grandmother for such a holiday.

Usually at this age, women prefer more soulful gifts made with their own hands. For them, the main thing is attention and care.

First of all, it is worth paying attention to the following factors.

• The lifestyle of the hero of the day. If, even at such an advanced age, she leads an active life and tries to keep up with new products, then a modern gadget will be the best gift. For lovers of a quiet and calm life within the home, things that are useful in everyday life will be considered a good gift.
• Health status. If a woman has problems with her legs or back, then you should not stop your choice on a gift that involves a lot of movement during use.
• Personal preferences of the birthday girl. Even at this age, women can remain capricious and whimsical in accepting a gift. Therefore, you can find out in advance what she wants to receive as a gift or what she dreams of in order to avoid an awkward situation in the acquisition and delivery of unnecessary things to anyone.

One of the most useful gifts for a grandmother or mother for an anniversary will be the decoration of a festive table, at which the whole family will gather. At this age, it is quite difficult to mess around with cooking and setting the table, which, moreover, can take quite a long time.

An addition to such a gift can be items that will simplify the conduct of business in everyday life.

• Appliances, which can be both large (washing machine, TV, electric stove) and small (multicooker, iron, electric meat grinder, microwave oven).
• Modern technology and gadgets (robot vacuum cleaner, laptop or computer with Internet connection, mobile phone).
• Kitchenware (frying pan, set of pots, service).

Useful gifts can also include comfortable and practical furniture (sofa, armchair, bed or good orthopedic mattress).

Another option would be warm clothes or indoor shoes. It can be warm slippers or felt boots, a cape made of natural wool, a shawl or a scarf.

For gardeners, a useful and unique gift can be mini-vegetable garden on the windowsill... It includes several light boxes with built-in lamps and a drainage system. This will allow the woman to grow greens, small vegetables, or just flowers all year round.

When such a significant anniversary is approaching for the most dear person (for example, mother), many are wondering what is unusual to give her. Of course, in addition to love, attention and care, you can present hand-made thing. It can be a knitted jacket or a tablecloth, a plaid sewn from multi-colored scraps of fabric, a picture made in an unusual technique. Will look original as a gift a fruit basket, as well as a personalized cake baked by children and grandchildren with their own hands.

You can give chocolate with the birthday girl's initials, a set of different types of tea in beautiful packaging, exotic products - all this will become an original present.

Congratulations in the form of a clip or computer presentation from all relatives are also considered a good and memorable gift. Exotic plant or flower, which my mother dreamed about, can also serve as an original version. One has only to consider that such a plant should not be too whimsical to care for.

For mother-in-law, as well as for grandmother and mother, you can purchase electronic photo frame with favorite pictures of all family members. Memorable gifts with engraving or a portrait of the hero of the day will look original. You can also create a family tree, restored antique photographs, items with a photograph of the whole family (mug, calendar, T-shirt).

The services of a housekeeper who will clean the apartment, buy groceries or prepare food is also an unusual gift, but not very common in our country. Before deciding to present this service, it is better to consult with the birthday girl, since not everyone will approve of this idea.

Items that help to take care of health will become valuable and useful gifts for representatives of such a venerable age. That is why a win-win option would be: universal body massager, air humidifier, salt lamp, warm lambswool belt, blood sugar or pressure gauges, electric fireplace.

Based on the state of health of the hero of the occasion, you can present her certificate for a course of massage or medical procedures, as well as a ticket to a sanatorium not far from home. For more active women, a gym or pool membership is suitable. If you have vision problems, then correctly selected glasses in a beautiful case will be a necessary gift.

In addition to gifts for the health of the body, it is worth thinking about a present for the soul. These are things and objects that can evoke positive emotions. These include the following options.
