Giving a gift to your mother-in-law isn’t always an easy task: quite frankly, it’s not always the most peaceful of relationships, and choosing the wrong gift could be a real disaster! Of course, the situation isn’t always such a catastrophe: a lot of times, beneath the arguments and disagreements lies real love and affection between a daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law.

So much so that for a few years now we even celebrate Mother-In-Law Day, which falls on the fourth Sunday in October and represents an opportunity to spend a wonderful day together, or to repair a more troubled relationship. And on a day such as this you certainly can’t show up empty handed: it’s the perfect time to offer a little something to your mother-in-law and solidify your connection.

But it’s important to remember that not all mother-in-laws are equal. We’ve identified 5 different types: there’s a perfect gift for each one of them. Which one represents your mum-in-law?



Mother-in-law gift ideas: find the perfect one for yours

#1 The meddling mother-in-law
Many mother-in-laws fall into this category: the busybody is always ready to butt into discussions between husband and wife with comments and actions nobody asked for. And even when the situation isn’t this extreme, mother-in-laws who can’t help snooping into the lives of their son and daughter-in-law also fit into this category.

All things considered, mother-in-laws often become meddlers because they care so much about their families and want to be a like a guardian angel, taking control of the situation and making sure everything is okay.


The perfect gift for this type of mother-in-law? The Composable bracelet with a gold guardian angel: a gift which will remind her to protect her son and his wife with a bit more discretion, just as a guardian angel does by observing from afar!

#2 The egotistical mother-in-law
The second type of mother-in-law is self-centred. What’s her profile? The egocentric mother-in-law loves being the centre of attention, especially when with her relatives and children. Every occasion is an excuse to gather her family around her: an enticing meal of rare delicacies, a household activity she can’t do by herself, errands she has to do together with others.

Here too we shouldn’t see her need for attention as all bad: often it’s just way to spend time with her family and children, who, as they get older, drift further away from their parents. But Mum will always be Mum.
