How about making her a small scrap book or memory book with pictures, notes, cards, and other small mementos that you make, and stuff from your parents, and other relatives, too. The only true cost would be the photo album, and the mementos would be stuff you have already, or stuff you make, and then all you have to do, is put it together.

One year we made my grandma a calendar. Each month had different pictures of the grand kids and we also went ahead and filled out the dates that had special days for everyone in the family...birthdays, anniversaries, etc..... She loved it!!! It is something special that she will have the entire year.

Get her a little book of 'favours' such as 'I owe you one hug', 'I owe you one dinner', that sort of thing. My gran just loves knowing that I'm there to help her out. Plus you could always make custom ones on your computer for her too. Good fun, makes her feel loved, costs hardly anything!

a poem or something you made as it will be sentimental :>
here's a great idea
1.take pictures of her and yourself ( 12 really cute ones)
2.take it to a photo shop and ask them to do each of them set as a day of the month . ( in other words .. in a calender form ).
3. and there you have it :> a calender with images of you and her to joy her every month :>

Take her out for a day of fun. Bring her grocery shopping, and to visit people she can't usually get out to see. Cook dinner and rent her favorite movie.

Get her a gift certificate to her favorite restaurant and take her to dinner! Being with you is the greatest gift you could give her. I know...I'm a grandmother and my grandkids are my angels!

Take her for a posh tea, or nice restaurant. If it's possible, get some theatre tickets.
