If you’re like me, Mother’s Day is one of the most challenging days to shop for. Here are a few ideas that are sure to delight.
Under $25
Don’t forget to get a card. Papyrus makes high-quality cards and they ship quickly from Amazon.
It sounds corny, but this is a gift that a mom will treasure every time she uses it. If possible, I recommend looking at the mother’s instagram/facebook/etc to see what pictures she has posted with her kid(s). Use those pictures because you know she likes them.
Around $50
I’ve had a great experience with Urban Stems as a flower delivery service. The flowers were shipped fresh and shipped over night. You can do a one time purchase or sign up for a subscription option to have fresh flowers delivered every few weeks.
Around $100
The Google Nest Hub is (secretly) the best smart picture frame that you can buy. Of course it does more than that. It works great in the kitchen to set timers and view recipes. When you aren’t using it for that, the Nest Hub will play a slide show of pictures that you can configure.
You can set this up so that when you take any picture of specific people, they are automatically uploaded into the slide show on the Nest Hub. If you want to do it more manually, you could also set up a shared photo album that you add to and the pictures will just show up on the Nest Hub. Buy this early and set it up yourself to have the photo album background set up.
You can see instructions on how to set up the photo backgrounds here.
That’s right, a $100 slipper. These slippers are a treat and will make the mother in your life feel special every time she uses them.
They are comfy and warm, but not too warm. You can wear them year round around the house. There are a few different styles, but the slip on is the most casual. You can also get a rubber sole if you think she will wear them out of the house as well.
This is not a coffee mug that just warms your coffee. This is a coffee mug that keeps your coffee at exactly the right temperature. Even when you get down to the last few sips, the coffee tastes like it has just been brewed.
This gift doesn’t seem all that special at first, but it is a game changer. It makes the coffee taste better and for it to be great even if you leave it sitting around.
Make sure not to get the 10oz size. It’s just too small. Either the 14oz or you can go with the travel mug version if that is a better fit.
