Gifts from the kids are assembled and glued the week prior at school - and everyone is eager for you to open their gift first. But then after the construction paper picture frames and paper mache vases are put into place - comes the "daddy" gift....and here are some ideas (in case dad is planning a shopping spree today).
Middle Burg Folk Art Studio
This is a wonderful idea I found on etsy.com. Why not surprise mom with one of these families made from paper mache and mounted on wooden bases. Hair color and style, skin tone, clothing style and colors are all up to your families’ specifics.
Words, sayings or names can be written on the base. Middle Burg Folk Studio makes these truly one-of-a-kind gifts from photos of each subject. It can feature your entire family or just the kids – whichever you choose they are special!
Family Silhouettes
I have always loved the silhouette, and for Mother’s Day there is no other gift like it! Fill a vacant wall with frames of the family or just the kids – whatever you decide it will be eye-catching!
Made by hand – literally
Looking for something extra personal for mom, handmade (pardon the pun) gifts are always a hit. This one is really special and easy to do. Take a canvas for each child (and yourself too!), paint it if you want or leave it plain. Then apply paint to your hand – stamp the canvas and…..this is something she is sure to love!
Stacking birthstone rings
As writing this I began to envision Angelina’s stacking collection of rings. I really like this idea, carrying on your finger a stack of rings that reminds you of each of your children. It ring encompasses the birthstone of that child’s birth. I think the idea is unique and really takes a mom back to where her journey began!
Spectacular Table Décor
These are so beautiful. You can find them on esty.com from the seller Fanciful Form.
They are made from a kind of air dry clay similar to cold porcelain. And the floral shapes are so soft, while still being eye-catching. This seller also has jewelry which is just as spectacular.
When a techy gift is acceptable?
Vivienne Tam HP Digital Clutch. This gorgeous peony print from the designers spring collection covers a convenient and compact digital clutch – the perfect gift for the fashionista mom
Flippin out
I have to admit I have a thing for flip flops (I wish I could wear them 24/7), but these have to be a must have for me! Juicy Couture plush flip flop slippers with charm and all!
And what is my perfect mother’s day gift? A day with my family, playing and enjoying each other, but don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t return the laptop or flip flops!
Enjoy your day moms!
