Celebrating Gorgeous Grandma Day: Honoring the Fabulous Women in Our Lives

July 17th 2023

July 23rd is no ordinary day—it’s Gorgeous Grandma Day! This special occasion celebrates the vibrant, stylish, and wise grandmothers who bring joy and inspiration into our lives. Whether they go by Grandma, Nana, Mimi, or another cherished name, these incredible women deserve a day dedicated to acknowledging their beauty and strength.

Why Gorgeous Grandma Day?

Gorgeous Grandma Day was created by author Alice Solomon in 1984 to break the stereotype of the typical “granny.” Solomon aimed to highlight that grandmothers are not confined to rocking chairs and knitting needles. Instead, they’re dynamic individuals who live life to the fullest, pursue passions, and embrace their age with grace and confidence.

How to Celebrate Gorgeous Grandma Day

There are countless ways to honor the fabulous grandmothers in your life on Gorgeous Grandma Day. Here are some fun and thoughtful ideas to make the day extra special:

• Spa Day: Treat your grandma to a relaxing spa day. A massage, facial, or manicure can be a wonderful way to show her how much she means to you.
• Fashion Show: Host a mini fashion show where Grandma can showcase her style. Let her strut her stuff in her favorite outfits and applaud her unique fashion sense.
• Story Time: Spend the day listening to her stories. Grandmas have a treasure trove of experiences and wisdom to share. Document these stories for future generations.
• Photo Shoot: Arrange a professional photo shoot or take some candid shots of her in her element. Capture her essence and create lasting memories.
• Grand Adventure: Plan an outing to a place she loves or somewhere she’s always wanted to go. Whether it’s a museum, a botanical garden, or a fancy restaurant, make it an unforgettable day.
• Homemade Gifts: Create a scrapbook, cook her favorite meal, or make a personalized piece of jewelry. These heartfelt gifts show thoughtfulness and effort.
