A good relationship with a mother-in-law is expensive. A good gift will help create a favorable atmosphere between you. So you show your attention and care, which will definitely be reflected in your future communication.
Instructions
Step 1
When choosing a gift, you need a positive attitude and a kind attitude towards the recipient. Forget all your disagreements, quarrels and nagging. Think that she is the closest and dearest person of your husband, and put your soul into a gift, at least for his sake.
Step 2
If you know her well enough, you can choose a gift for her hobbies and interests. For example, she loves to cook - the right cooking appliance will do, she enjoys spending time in the garden - give something for the garden. But you do not need to be limited to a symbolic gift like a small ladle; it is better to give a really useful device. Explore the assortment to find a useful item that she does not already have.
Step 3
The mother-in-law is most likely the same age as your mother. You can consult with her to find a gift that is suitable for your age. But don’t give something that highlights her years. She will buy anti-wrinkle cream, hearing aids, or other similar items on her own.
Step 4
If you are choosing a gift for your first meeting, it is difficult to find something personalized. You can limit yourself to a bouquet of her favorite flowers and a box of chocolates. Check with your man about the nuances so as not to miscalculate with the gift.
Step 5
When living together, choose a gift so that it is used primarily by the mother-in-law. If you buy a washing machine or a saucepan, the whole family will use it. Choose gifts that suit her needs and desires.
Step 6
If you are a needlewoman, do something with your own hands. She will be pleased that you have invested so much time and effort in a gift. You don't have to knit or sew something, you can make a family photo album filled with your shared photos with original design. You can come up with funny captions for each photo.
Step 7
As a last resort, you can give standard gifts that are suitable for almost everyone. These include figurines, photo frames, candlesticks, certificates for procedures in the SPA-salon, gift cards to the store and other similar items.
Step 8
In addition to the gift, pay attention to the words that you will speak during the presentation. Silently stretching out a bundle will make a repulsive impression, so consider a small wish. You can somehow justify your gift, for example, "for our magic needlewoman, we give an assistant - a sewing machine." The gift should come from you and your husband, so give him the opportunity to say your wishes.
