8 Great Gifts For Mom
…Because She Was Right.
Mother’s Day is coming up this Sunday—not that we thought you forgot or anything. We know you’d never overlook the woman who guided you along the straight and narrow. But if you’re still having trouble deciding on an appropriate present, think about your mom’s favorite words of wisdom; because she’s likely been giving you hints all along. (She talks ‘til she’s blue in the face!) Your mom gave you lots of great advice; show her you listened by getting her a great gift.
1. Eat your vegetables
Health-conscious moms can grow their own spinach with the help of this cedar potting bench.
2. Go outside and get some fresh air
For the outdoorsy mom, a wicker basket like this makes organizing a picnic a breeze. It comes packed with a wine opener and dinner plates, salad plates, cutlery, napkins and wine glasses for two.
3. No running in the house
Now that she can have nice things, maybe mom would like this bud vase made from marble and polished metal.
4. Quiet down, I can’t hear myself think
You probably stressed her out more than once while you were growing up, now help mom get her Zen back with a reed diffuser. Choose from subtle scents like fresh cucumber, jasmine rain, or Tahitian sunrise.
5. Money doesn’t grow on trees
Help your frugal, eco-conscious mom save money (and those trees) by giving her an environmentally-sound travel bottle. It keeps drinks hot (or cold) for hours.
6. Clean up your room
Your organized mom will appreciate these handwoven storage baskets, which keep clutter corralled stylishly.
7. Keep your elbows off the table
With pretty linens like these, who’d want to obscure the table setting?
8. If you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all
Your mom can use one of these beautiful bound books as a diary or gratitude journal to record the highlights of her day.
