This weekend there is a special day for moms everywhere. This is your reminder during finals that Sunday is Mother’s Day. Here is some inspiration for gift ideas that will make her day special.
Flowers
Flowers are always a classic, but there are some twists that can be added to make this gift even more special. A flower subscription is a nice way to keep the gift going for a while after Mother’s Day. They can be found locally through a florist or online and include weekly to biweekly deliveries of bouquets so she can have fresh flowers and a reminder of her children. There is also the option of buying outdoor flowers at Menards or another outdoor store near her and helping to plant some summer flowers outside. Then she can enjoy them all summer long.
Jewelry
Jewelry is another gift that usually goes over well. Make sure to find out whether the receiver of this gift is a gold or silver jewelry wearer. Some styles that are in right now include dainty gold necklaces, necklaces with initials and other letters on them, and earrings that are hoops, dangle or have pearl charms on them.
Watercolors
If there is an artsier mother in need of a gift, there are good beginner craft sets including watercolor sets with paint, paper and outlines included. The most popular ones recently come from Emily Lex Studio. They are an affordable and fun gift idea that can spice up some of the more traditional and predictable gifts.
Self Care Products
Products that are all the rage for a self care night include peel-off face masks, a new spring-inspired nail polish color, lotions or candles. Aldi has some new affordable Mother’s Day products in store at the Ames location that are perfect for a self care-based gift.
Homemade Cards
If there is one thing a mother loves, it is knowing there was heartfelt effort put into her gift. Try buying craft paper and get out scissors and glue to create a homemade card that includes thankfulness for all of the sacrifices she had to make to be a good mother. Here is an idea for a pop-up garden homemade card.
