Mother’s Day is a week from Sunday, May 11th, and I do not know about you but I am not yet ready. My mom’s birthday is actually on Wednesday so I always forget that soon after she gets another holiday to celebrate just how special she is. While I have her birthday present all figured out, and which I will get to give to her at the family wedding in Nashville this weekend, Mother’s Day is simply a blur. I have looked high and low for something I think she would really enjoy and I always try to follow her saying – get me something I want, not something I need.
Most of the gifts in the guide below I am sure my mother would be happy with, the only exception being the knitting kit and the drop earrings. Mom, if you want to comment and let me know which item you might like, that would be great!
($16) philosophy ‘amazing grace’ set ($50) Chevron Cotton Twill Apron ($28)
Belle Fluer Charm Bracelet ($30) Crate and Barrel Pineapple and Ginger Candle ($15) Family Tree Print ($45)
Set of Copper Mugs ($60) Crosby Mother Tote ($12) ($68)
Periwinkle Correspondence Cards ($40) C. Wonder Reversible Nappa Belt ($48) Spring Bulb Garden ($50)
One day I will hopefully be in a position where I might be able to pick up one of each item to give my wonderful and deserving mother for Mother’s Day but until then I will stick with one of these items, all which come in under $75! And now, just because, one of my favorite photos of my mom and I!
Happy early Mother’s Day!
