Don't forget that making homemade cards and crafts is often the best gift of all, but just in case you want to wrap up a little something special, here are ideas for all types of moms on Mother's Day!
1. Does mom love jewelery? We found it hard to narrow down the choices for custom jewelery for mom or grandma this Mother's Day. We loved the selection at Etsy Canada, like this hip mama stamped necklace or even this silver "Nana" pendant.
2. Is mom sentimental and loves to collect keepsakes? Dads, give mom the day off a week or two before Mother's Day and take the kids to Crock A Doodle to create a one-of-a-kind piece just for mom! Our fave pick? Do a family handprint platter with the kids and mom will be sure to display this is a very special place! Remember, you need about a week to let it sit in the kiln. Prices range from $12-$50.
3. Is she a new mom? For the mom on her first Mother's Day, we love that you can capture some memories by creating a display of baby's footprints or handprints, with a stunning shadow box from Wee Piggies and Paws.
4. Techy or Social mom? We love these custom phone cases! Choose a great family shot to use for mom or just her initials and favourite colours to give her something unique and personalized! Does mom love taking family shots and sharing them? She should download the FREE Vello app.
5. Fashionista mom? No worries! Etsy Canada has some incredibly unique and handcrafted fashion items like this monogrammed chevron scarf for under $30!
6. Java-Loving mom? Let her wake up on Mother's Day and every morning with a mug like this one! Take a trip to her regular coffee shop and pick up some of her favourite beans or even a gift card!
7. Does mom love to follow the latest trends? Then we have the perfect gift idea from Sephora! Not sure what store mom loves best?
8. Is mom a book worm? We love ebooks for their ability to be so portable and light! Kobo Touch is a great value at only $79! If mom already has an ereader or likes to read paperbacks, how about a gift card to buy a new book!
9. Does mom or grandma love to garden? Bring the walls to life, with these innovative PlantScape vertical gardens, with an internal irrigation system, from Walmart! In terracotta and white, you can transform your walls into a stunning garden this spring!
10. Is mom a Yoga fan? For that Zen mama we have some great ideas to give her all that she needs for her favourite yoga workout! Beautiful yoga mats, kits, dvds, carrying cases and even accessories make a great gift! Top it off with a month at a local studio and it's the perfect gift!
