Money can’t buy love, but it can buy a great Mother’s Day gift! While it’s NewHomeSource’s official position that love isn’t a competition, our Mother’s Day Gift Guide can help you pick the perfect present and (maybe) become the favorite child.*
Flowers
Cut flowers are a Mother’s Day staple for a reason. Send your mom a thoughtful gift that doesn’t contribute to clutter and features beautiful blooms. With a wide range of options, you can go beyond basic roses and ensure that the bouquet you send your mom is made of her favorite flowers, colors, and styles.
If your mom has a green thumb, give her growing flowers. Growing flowers let your mom garden, and give her blooms she can enjoy over and over. Give her a packet of seeds or summer bulbs so she can raise plant babies, literally, from the ground up.
Crafting Supplies
This Mother’s Day, give your mom, a.k.a. The Craft Queen, the tools and supplies she needs to indulge in her passion. Like most avid crafters, your mom probably is in dire need of raw materials to transform into her unique creations. Gift her the crafter’s equivalent of rocket fuel, and every time she looks at her finished products, she’ll remember her favorite kid.
Mother’s Day is a great chance to get Mom a special tool off her wish list, or as an opportunity to upgrade her current tools. You can also find really pretty crafting tools that elevate the entire crafting experience. Just make sure you buy tools that are needed, and won’t just take up space.
Wine
Show your mom that you still think that she’s the cool mom with a nice bottle or two of her favorite Boudreaux. Wine for Mother’s Day is the gift of relaxation and a good time; truly a win-win situation! Let mom sip chardonnay and celebrate Mother’s Day in style.
Peace and Quiet
Look, we understand everything was your sibling’s fault and you remain the good child. But even with a perfect kid like you, Mom still puts in long hours for the family. Give Mom the gift she truly wants: Peace and quiet.
How moms enjoys peace and quiet might look different between families. If your mom liked curling up in her reading nook, get her some nice tea and her new favorite book. If a spa day is more her thing, get her some nice bath salts, essential oils, and a nice face mask.
Mother’s Day is a great time to show your appreciation for all the hard work she put in for you and your family. Whatever you decide to get your mom, don’t forget to give her a call and tell her how much you love her.
