Oh, I forgot my budget! I will say not over $100, as I already picked up a couple of little things (slippers and a coffee mug that I decorated)

mmnnn...what about making some beauty products??? I LOVE amking my own salt and sugar scrubs, I have a place in Portland Oregon where I buy dead sea salt in bulk and mix w/ organic oils and scents.. add to a pretty jar (dollar store has some great ones every once in awhile, I also keep an eye out at thrift shops for great glass ones....) They are super yummy! I have also made my own facial masks but they don't last as long as the igredients are fresh...

Hello Trina! Your FMIL, you could start a scrapbook for her (if you're into that, and not OCD unlike me, I don't scrapbook because it never turns out te way I want it!) Or you can start a "Family" Wall for her, find pictures of her kids and grandkids and start putting them in frames for her, You coulg even get a wall 'tattoo' that has a family quote or saying she can start hanging her photos by. I think some more!
49 days till xmas!

Your mom...hmm...Everything she needs to relax, candles, yummy bath stuff, and a good book and/or a movie?

Or, if she likes to hang out with her friends and entertain, you could get her a recipe book and some cute serving ware/plates.

The ultiamte date night in: Bottle (or two!) of a wine or spirit she likes, gift certificate to her fave resturante that delivers, some popcorn and fixin's, and some movies..?
