Mother’s Day: the single day of the year that you put your hectic schedule on hold to celebrate the woman who gave you life. I think we can all agree that coming up with a meaningful gift to show your loving thanks is a lot of pressure. Everyone has a different budget and everyone has a different way they would like to celebrate their special woman. Whether your budget permits a little or a lot, we’ve got you covered in making this Mother’s Day one she will always remember.
IOU coupon book – 0
Mother’s Day doesn’t have to be limited to just one day. You can create fun and creative coupons that she can redeem at any time. Get inspired with ideas such as: breakfast in bed, doing the dishes/laundry, a hug, and cleaning your room.
Chocolate-covered fruit bouquet – $/$$
Skip the flowers and order your mom a delicious bouquet of her favourite fruits dipped in heavenly chocolate. To cut the cost but also keep that same sweet taste, make your own chocolate dipped fruit and decorate them with her favourite colours.
Loose leaf tea or accessories – $$
Is your mom a dedicated tea lover? Pick up her favourite loose leaf tea, a new fancy mug, or timeless tea accessories for her to try. Every time she takes a sip she will be thinking of you!
Personalized stationery – $$
Personalized gifts never go out of style! A custom-made stationery set will be the perfect gift for the mom who scrambles around the house looking for odds and ends of paper to jot down important messages. From thank-you cards to a simple notepad, your mom will love the personal touch.
Charm for her bracelet – $$
If your mom has a charm bracelet, pick out a new charm (perhaps her favourite colour, animal, or even birthstone) for her to add to her collection.
Coffee brewing system – $$$
If we know moms, we know they love their coffee. With a gourmet coffee maker, your mom can get her caffeine fix with just a click of a button — she will be extra grateful for this one!
Kitchen essentials – $$/$$$
Are your mom’s favourite kitchen tools becoming a little banged up? Treat her to a new sauté pan, the latest blender, or even a quirky apron that she will really appreciate. For a little extra love, throw in that cookbook she’s had her eye on!
Spa day – $$/$$$
Though this may seem quite expensive, you can actually tailor a spa day specific to your budget. Set mom up with a simple relaxing massage, or go all out with multiple services such as a body wrap and a mani-pedi to complete her special day.
Wine tasting tour – $$$
Most winery tours require a modest cost or are totally free, but why not go all out? Set mom up with a tour, hotel stay, and even a gift certificate to the winery’s restaurant to make her day extra memorable. Tip: Some wineries are promoting Mother’s Day packages that could be the perfect way to make her day that much more special!
Theatre performance – $$$
To celebrate your mom, why not give her tickets to that show she has been dying to see? Make a full night of it and treat her to dinner and dessert first!
