Mother's Day Gift Ideas
Mother’s Day is almost here and you do not want to be stuck without a gift for that extremely special lady in your life. Here are my favorite Mother’s Day Gift Ideas.
Reign & Cash Necklace. I love my mama necklace from Reign and Cash and it makes such a great gift. They are made locally here in Maple Ridge and can be made with a custom name, a word like “Mama” or “Grandma”, or even customized with birthstones. I LOVE my mama bar necklace and I’m so excited to be giving one away to one lucky person this Mother’s Day. To enter to win visit Instagram.com/kayleshapenner
Luxury Bath Products. I think almost all mom’s love a little R&R in the bathtub.. especially with these long social distancing days. One of my favorites is local maker Só Luxury. They feel amazing on the skin and are organic & vegan… bonus!
Coffee Mugs. All us moms need a little more “Mom-Fuel” in our lives these days and a cute mug goes a long way to put a smile on our faces first thing in the morning. I love my Mama Bear but I think my favorite mug is a custom mug I made for Christmas from Shutterfly; it’s covered with beautiful pictures of Linden and it brings a smile to my face even before that first sip of liquid happiness.
Photo Gifts. I think you’d be hard-pressed to find a mom who wasn’t obsessed with photos of their children. There are so many great photo gift ideas that moms are sure to love. I talked about the photo mugs above but printed and framed pictures and photo books are also big hits! One of the favorite gifts I’ve ever got my mom was a gift certificate for a family photography session. It was such a great gift as we planned it for when our whole family would be in town and we now have these great pictures of the whole family that isn’t done with selfies or with a self-timer!
A hint of glam. All moms need a little something to make them feel extra special. Whether it is that over-priced lipstick you know would look amazing on her that she would never treat herself to or that over-the-top clutch that she might only be able to use on very special occasions! Mom’s can always use a little more SPLURGE in their lives.
Help her get fit! Physical health is so important and why not gift mom something extra special this year. I came across what I think is the most AWESOME fitness gift ever! Local Port Coquitlam Company Tri-City Metal is making these custom weights and I LOVE them. They’re on my Mother’s Day wishlist (hint hint Linden).
Food. We all love food - and on Mother’s Day forget the diet and healthy eating. Even if you are doing no-contact with your mom, you can always cook something special and leave it on her doorstep (click here for some recipe ideas). (P.S. I’m sharing a VERY special Mother’s Day food idea - so come back to the blog around May 5th for details!).
Flowers. Of course, it’s classic, it’s amazing, we all love them. But try to get something extra special this year. We are all stuck without seeing each other and a little bit of floral can go a long way on our mental health. Maple Ridge Florist is selling these ADORABLE selfie posies and I just think they are so cute! And your mom will too.
Rest. Relaxation. No work. Okay… I have to admit I never fully understood the whole “Mom’s don't get days off” thing until this year. So please, all kids, dads, and partners… above any gifts:
Let her sleep in
Let her take as long of a shower as she wants
Don’t let her change any diapers, do any dishes, or cook any meals
Give her lots of hugs, cuddles, and kisses
Happy Mother’s Day all you Mom’s out there! This day is for you!
