There is no interview and no notice period. One phone call and two people who thought they were finished raising children get handed the best job of their lives. This ceramic keepsake makes it official: "Only The Best Parents Get Promoted To Grandparents."

Glossy ceramic, hand pressed, with a permanently fused graphic under a glossy glaze. Pregnancy announcements, a first Christmas as grandparents, Grandparents Day: this is the one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a good gift for new grandparents?
A: New grandparents want proof of the title more than an object, so anything that names the promotion does the work. A keepsake also marks the year without needing a date on it.

Q: How do you announce a pregnancy to your parents at Christmas?
A: Wrapping a keepsake that says the word grandparents and letting them read it themselves is the easiest way, because the reaction happens in front of everyone. Hand it over near the end so nothing follows it.

Q: What do you give grandparents who already have everything?
A: Skip the category of things they could buy themselves and give something only a family member can give, which is a title. That is not available in any store they shop in.

Q: Where are these ornaments designed and made?
A: Each one is designed and hand pressed in the USA, glaze and fused graphic included. Nothing about it is assembled from parts made elsewhere.

Q: Is this a good gift for Grandparents Day as well as Christmas?
A: Grandparents Day falls in September, and a keepsake given then waits a few months before it goes on a tree. Plenty of people give it at the announcement instead.

Q: Can I give this to a grandpa as well as a grandma?
A: The saying names parents and grandparents rather than one grandparent, so it suits a couple or either one alone. It is the rare gift in this category that does not default to grandmothers.
