Mother's Day Shopping | 2017
We are one week away from Mother's Day. That time of year is here and summer is slowly approaching! Time is running out on getting your mama something nice for her special day. Today, I'll be sharing some idea's I think are the perfect gifts for our mother's on their day.
My first topic is books, of course! You can never go wrong with picking up a new release for mom to enjoy with her time on the beach or near the pool. Amazon always has an amazing selection, always something on sale and if you are a Prime Member, anything you order is free two day shipping! There are so many new books that have released and if you don't want to pay the price of a new hardcover, many books have released into paperback. You can pair up any good book with a bottle of mom's favorite wine!
If your mom isn't into coffee or reading, Jewelry might be a way to go. Jewelry stores will be having Mother's Day specials going on right now. Maybe a nice new bead for her Pandora bracelet. Pandora even has a line of beautiful rings now. Something pretty and meaningful. Things Remembered also has sales going on, get mom something nice and engrave it, a jewelry box, bracelets, necklaces, even a nice robe or slippers with mom embroidered.
Some moms like being pampered. A nice mani, pedi will do wonders for any mom. After a long week, mom might like to go get a mani, pedi, especially with summer well on it's way, mom wants to look and feel pretty, right? Some face masks, a little nail polish and a gift card to her favorite salon. Now, I think a gift card is a little impersonal, so if you are going to go the gift card route, I always suggest to pair it up with something. So a gift card would go well with a couple of bath bombs from Lush for mom to enjoy a nice soothing bath after an afternoon at the salon, keeping that relaxed, indulgent feeling is a nice way for mom to leave the stress of the week behind and enjoy the weekend.
My last idea is a little more high tech. Right now Amazon has the Kindle Fire's on sale. Some mom's are into the tablet life, I know my mother-in-law is. It is the perfect gift for her right now because her first iPad just pooped the bed and she has kind of has been hinting for a new device to read on when she doesn't feel like reading from a physical book at night. Amazon has the Kindle Fire series, now with Alexa on sale for just $49.99. If you want to upgrade to the 16gb, it is only $10 more for 8 more gigs rounding in at $59.99. It also now comes in four colors, Black, Blue, Pink and now Orange, which they are calling Tangerine. It has over a thousand apps. My mother-in-law loves Netflix for her Gilmore Girls and she loves to read. So I can fill in a couple books for her as a little something extra to enjoy on one of the beach days I know we are bound to have. Now, this is a little more pricey compared to the rest of the ideas above, but this is the perfect group gift. My brother-in-law is pitching in with me and my husband to get one for our ma, it is a gift from all of us instead of us getting her individual gifts. It is a great idea and something she will have for many years to come and we know she will use it, so it's worth it.
Our mama's are important to us, so treat them like Queen's on their day.
Happy Mother's Day Mama's!
