Celebrate Grandparents Day with Willow Tree®

1. Celebrate Grandparents Day with Willow Tree® Using her parents as models, artist Susan Lordi sculpted the appropriately-titled piece: “Anniversary.” They will celebrate their 68th wedding anniversary this September. Lordi explained that when her parents sat down to pose, they just seemed to fit perfectly together. Their natural seated positioning side-by-side has them leaning into each other slightly. He has his arm around her shoulder. She is holding his other hand with both of her hands on his lap. Celebrate Your Grandparents’ Love The timing is perfect for the public as well because Sunday, September 8th is Grandparents Day. The Willow Tree® Anniversary sculpture is a perfect gift representing the enduring love of your grandparents. On the back of the sculpture there’s a carving that reads, “I love thee.” The Willow Tree® collection features Lordi’s signature work for everyone to enjoy and explore the quiet beauty of her figurative sculptures. On the Willow Tree® website, there is a section dedicated just to grandparents, which is a convenient way to find an appropriate gift for one or both of them. Create a Family Grouping In much the same way you can group nativity figurines, you could instead create your own family grouping of figures positioned to interact with each other as families do. Select pieces from four groups: parents, grandparents, children, and pets. You could potentially create a big family grouping or simply choose two or three figures to display. Use your imagination to represent your family best. Your grandparents would be delighted with a gift from Willow Tree® that celebrates your relationship with them.

2. Pick Your Favorite Sculpture If you want to take a simpler approach, consider the Love You figurative sculpture to give as a gift to both of your grandparents. The female hand-painted figure is holding a wire circle with gold leaf-accents in which the words “love you” are written in the center. Those two small words mean so much. The figurative sculpture is a visible reminder of how much you love them and would make a wonderful gift. There are plenty of other inspiring gift ideas on the Willow Tree® site to help you celebrate Grandparents Day, September 8th, including angel ornaments, musicals, keepsake boxes, plaques, and a Signature Collection. Willow Tree® also offers a thoughtful selection of bereavement gifts, Christmas gifts, new baby gifts, and wedding gifts, to name a few.
