Personalized Custom Nana Christmas Shirt with Photo

A nana Christmas shirt for the grandma whose kitchen fills with flour and small helpers every December. It’s a personalized custom photo tee, long sleeve, crewneck or hoodie with her name on top, your grandkids photo in the middle, and LITTLE ELVES underneath in tall white letters.

Upload the grandkids photo

In short

You upload one photo of the grandkids and type her grandma name with an apostrophe-s, like NANA’S or MIMI’S. LITTLE ELVES stays the same. The photo prints in black and white between the two lines.

Making the nana Christmas shirt hers

Choose a garment and size. Many grandmas who run cold go for the crewneck.
Pick the shirt color.
Upload the grandkids photo. At the table, by the tree or in matching pajamas all work. Keep the kids in everyday clothes, waist-up or head-and-shoulders, no swim or bath shots. Your photo replaces the sample.
Type the grandma name your little ones use. Example: Mimi’s.

Why her grandma name on top makes it hers

Grandma gifts from little kids end up being macaroni ornaments or a mug
Cookie-day photos stay on Mom’s phone and never reach Nana
Generic grandma shirts skip the name the kids actually call her

To a grandma, the name the kids call her is a title she wears proudly. Her own grandma name on top, like MIMI’S or NANA’S, the grandkids photo in black and white in the middle, and LITTLE ELVES underneath in tall white letters.

Grandma’s, Gigi’s, Lolli’s and Mamaw’s all fit the top line.

The cookie-day sample

Nana is laughing with three little grandkids in aprons, flour everywhere, a rolling pin and cookie cutters spread across the table and a lit tree in the corner. That’s exactly the grandma-with-kids photo this layout was made for.

Toned black and white, a messy kitchen looks charming instead of chaotic, and she can pull the shirt out every holiday season.

Who gives a custom grandma shirt?

Usually a daughter or daughter-in-law orders it for the grandma whose kitchen turns into a flour storm every December. The grandkids are too small to shop, but they’re excellent at standing on chairs for a photo.

From the grandkids, too little to shop

They can’t wrap anything yet, but they can pose in aprons, so the photo is their part of the gift.

A daughter, for Mom’s first grandma Christmas

If this is her first Christmas as a grandma, seeing NANA’S printed above the little ones says it better than a card.

A son who lives far away

When he can’t make it to her house this year, a photo of the grandkids sends some of the kitchen chaos her way.

Grandma herself, for Christmas morning

She can pick the crewneck in her favorite shirt color and wear the kids to the Christmas Eve service.

Aunts matching for cookie day

Order one per adult with the same photo, and cookie day comes with its own matching uniforms.

Can I change LITTLE ELVES?

No, that line is fixed. The top line is yours to change, so any grandma name with an apostrophe-s works.

How many grandkids can be in the photo?

As many as fit clearly. Larger groups work best when faces aren’t tiny, so crop close before you upload.

Any rules about the photo?

Family photos only, with kids in everyday clothes. We decline celebrities, famous faces, rappers, logos, brand names, team marks and characters. If an order asks for any of it, we cancel and refund it.
