Perfect to keep in your car for cold, winter days. Or in your purse, kitchen drawer, bedside table, backpack, gym bag….. I am normally not a “hand lotion person” but I will use Kiehls because it actually works. Kiehls has been around for as long as I can remember.
Welcome,
Women Over 60
Welcome! I created Grateful After 60 to encourage women over 60 like myself to stay hopeful, curious, joyful, and true to themselves. My intention is rooted in kindness rather than pressure. Personal achievements can take many forms, and graceful aging may look different for each of us. Growth can continue at any age. Learning can remain active. Creativity can stay alive. Humor may become even stronger. Women over 60 deserve to feel important, stylish, interesting and confident without pretending to be younger.

Grateful Picks
All featured items are selected with steady comfort in mind. The purpose is to offer ideas, not demand purchases. You may find scarves, soft sweaters, simple earrings, natural skincare products, soothing lotions, candles, pillows, and gentle accessories for women over 60. Each idea focuses on calm, simplicity, value, and everyday usefulness.
A few favorites:
I just bought two sets as a gift for my Aunt. They are perfect for her because she doesn’t have to turn a small switch – she simply taps the top to turn off and on. She put one in her tiny kitchen and one in her bath. They come in different colors so they are perfect for almost any décor. BTW – I saved a set for me.
This is a MUST read! If you are looking for a spell-binding read, this is the one. I just finished and my book club will read it in January. I ordered the audio and the narration is excellent. Nice job John Boyne
I came across these candles when looking for the perfect holiday hostess gift. You can take one or two or all four! I also give them to my daughters-in-law as an additional gift under the tree. The scents are light and not too over-powering. Perfect for a small power room.
Absolutely one of the prettiest mats to use when learning mahjong. The rules are printed on the mat so make them handy when playing! Most importantly, it is slip-resistent and fits most mahjong and card tables.
These brass statues are the perfect gift for your Mahjong friends. They are small (1.89 x 2.1 inches), made of brass, and perfect to decorate any rack. I like them because they are inexpensive and perfect to celebrate the Chinese 2026 The Year of the Horse.
