Greeting card from Julie Ann Art
In case you were unaware, Mother's
Day is this Sunday. So if you "forgot", here are 5 last minute gift
ideas that any* mom would love.
*And by any, I mean, I would love. Matt: if you are reading this, pay attention.
1. A day at the spa.
You can't go wrong with this one.
You probably ran out of time to schedule her a day at the spa on Sunday, but you can still give her a gift card that would cover a couple of services. Tell her to pick whatever day she wants and that you will take care of the kiddos. If you live in Boston, I highly recommend Bella Sante. They have locations in Boston, Lexington and Wellesley.
2. A coffee mug painted by you and your kids.
Go to a pottery studio that has
ready-to-paint pottery shapes and paint her a nice mug. Have your kids
participate to make it extra special. Check out Made by Me in Cambridge.
3. A pretty potted plant in a homemade hanging planter.
You could buy a hanging planter at a
store but then it's not as special. Buy a plant that is easy to take
care of and hard to kill. She already has enough to worry about. Here is
a fun tutorial.
4. Schedule a professional family photo shoot.
She would love to have some nice pictures taken of all of you.
5. A year of dates
Give her the gift of 12 awesome
dates planned by yourself. Do one date a month. It can include the kids
if you want. Just make sure it's something different, fun and that she
would enjoy. I gifted this to Matt for our anniversary.
Have a great rest of the week and
don't slack off when it comes to Mother's Day! Take care of breakfast and make her feel special. We moms work very hard
and a little appreciation is nice ;)
