Tacky Holiday Gift Assistance Needed
My cousin just got a dog and had the dog's picture taken w/Santa. On the back of the photo he wrote "To Grandma, love Sam" Sam being the dog's name.

I'm looking for a t-shirt that reads something like, "What do you mean my grandchild is a dog?"

Can anyone help me find one?

4. There's a Cathy book called "My Granddaughter Has Fleas"!
Maybe you should just get that!

10. Although I did buy an incredibly useful item at Lillian Vernon
The had a tapestry covered, fake-fur lined holder for eyeglasses. You put it on your bedside table, and put your glasses in it at night.

http://www.alwaysbrilliant.com/?PID=280&SC=98667&PN=Eyeglass%20Holder%20Choice&KW=eyeglass%20holder

Keeps them from scratching, and discourages the cat from knocking them off in a bid to get me out of bed to feed her at 4am (and if she does, they don't get scratched or stepped-on). No longer at Lillian Vernon, but a cool item. Totally old-lady, but useful as hell.

8. Check your phone book
there are places where you can get custom screen printing for tee shirts.

My sis had 3 tees made for the granddaughters. Since she is Grandpa's 2nd wife, she is "Nana" as opposed to the two 'grandmas'. The girls, as tots, were always enthralled with sparkl-ie earrings, bracelets...

The tee shirts had sparkle inks in silver, turquoise, pink and said:

"We love diamonds.
We love pearls.
We love gold.
We're Nana's girls!"
