Personalised gifts for grandparents: one present from all the grandchildren
Grandparents who have everything are still missing one thing: proof that the whole family is thinking of them at the same moment. The gift that works is the one the grandchildren give together, and in which each of them appears. The Breton bowls poster gives everyone a bowl with their name painted on it, up to seven. The family tree bracelet holds up to five initials at the ends of its branches; the MAMIE or PAPI bracelet — Grandma and Grandpa in French — engraves the word, then the grandchildren’s initials. For a golden wedding, two posters tell the story of the marriage, one through the anniversaries already passed, the other in months, days and hours spent together. And the city map draws the street of the house where everyone gathers. A printed poster costs €19.90 to €69.90 depending on size, a bracelet €23.90: split between five cousins, nobody pays much. Order ten days before the date.

Personalised wedding anniversary print — golden, silver and ruby wedding

Wedding anniversary print in numbers — months, days, hours and milestones

From €8.90
-
Personalised city map poster — the city where you met
The map of the village or neighbourhood they have always lived in, centred on the street of the family home where everyone meets up in summer. A title and a dedication printed beneath, written in the name of all the grandchildren.

Family Tree Bracelet – Engraved Initials
A trunk and one branch per grandchild, an initial at the end of each, up to five. It is the bracelet a grandmother shows off while reciting the names one by one — worn on her wrist rather than kept on the dresser.
€23.90
-
PAPA, MAMAN, PAPI… Bracelet – Children’s Initials
The word MAMIE or PAPI, French for Grandma and Grandpa, at the centre of the bead, and beneath it the grandchildren’s initials separated by dots, up to five. Given by the whole tribe of cousins, it says who it’s for and who it’s from.
€23.90

Frequently asked questions
What gift should you give your grandparents?
A gift in which they find their grandchildren: the family’s Breton bowls with a name on each bowl, a bracelet engraved with everyone’s initials, or the map of the house where the whole family gathers. Grandparents no longer need things; what they keep are the ones that carry names.
What joint gift can all the grandchildren give?
A poster, because it has room for everyone: the Breton bowls fit seven names, the anniversary poster carries their two first names and the years. One person builds it on their phone and sends a screenshot to the others before ordering: the on-screen preview is exactly what gets printed. Among six cousins, a 50 × 70 at €49.90 comes to under nine euros each.
Is there a Grandparents’ Day?
It depends on the country, and the date is not the same everywhere. In France, grandmothers are celebrated on the first Sunday of March and grandfathers on the first Sunday of October. Whatever the occasion, order ten days ahead for Ireland or elsewhere in the EU, a week for France: 48 hours in the workshop, then the post.
What if a grandchild arrives after the gift?
An engraved bracelet cannot be changed: a branch cannot be added to a bead the laser has already burned. If a birth is on the way, wait for it before ordering the family tree, or choose the Breton bowls, which take up to seven names and can be ordered again, as a new poster, once the family has grown.
A bracelet for a grandfather who has never worn jewellery?
The marine cord adjusts with sliding knots, with no clasp to pinch, which matters for less nimble fingers. The cherry wood bead stays discreet, and the word PAPI reads at a glance: it is a bracelet you wear for what it says, not to be noticed.
