The Ultimate Mother’s Day Gift Guide

mother's day gift guide

Let’s just be honest here, as I tend to be anyways but it’s a nice preface. Mother’s Day is really just another day sure it’s nice to have a day dedicated to us but it is just another day. More often than not on life’s regular days and yes even on the little bit more special days life gets in the way and we fail a little on the pre-planning. We do it on Father’s Day sometimes too, so it’s ok Dad’s.
I polled several Mom’s (very scientific like) asking them what their favorite Mom’s Day gift is/would be, and they all pretty much responded with similar sentiments. So instead of letting that loved one run out scrambling to buy something (anything!), why not hint (nudge, or just punch) them to have a look at this ultimate mother’s day gift guide. It’s not your average gift guide, since it’s filled with all the simple things that may not seem like a ‘gift’.

For The Host | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide

For The Host | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide 1.life art print – 2.copper french press – 3.salt grater – 4.stemless champs flutes – 5.bath salts – 6.tea towel – 7.oil diffuser – 8.wine aerator spout – 9.magnetic sand timer – 10.coffee mug – 11.marble chess set

Last but not least, actually this probably should have been the first gift guide I shared since we all have at least one party to attend and you just can’t show up empty-handed. Often we reach for a nice bottle of wine as a host/hostess gift, but something a bit different is a great idea. I mean, there really are never too many bottles of wine but how about something pretty that is also super useful instead? Like maybe something from this list! Happy gifting!

Have you seen our other gift guides: FOR HER, THE KIDS, FOR HIM, THE YOGI

For Him | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide

For Him | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide 1.thermos – 2.first husband keychain – 3.all natural deodorant – 4.calculator watch – 5.fairisle sweater – 6.beanie – 7.beard oil – 8.sneakers – 9.gloves – 10.gym bag – 11.beard trimmer

For him, which means any him. The dude you love, husband, brother, dad, best friend, whomever is lucky enough to be on your gift list. These are a few things I think the men/man in my life would life (minus the video games that is). How has your shopping been going?

I’m a tad under the weather today so this is just about all the words my brain can muster. I have one more gift guide to post (probably tomorrow), for the host/hostess and then it’ll be back to regular blog programming…well that is until I take a holiday break (my brain is really excited for that break).

For The Yogi | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide

For The Yogi | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide 1.yogini tee – 2.bow pose patch – 3.grateful toque – 4.high-rise wunderunder leggings – 5.leather mat strap + light weight travel mat – 6.mala beads – 7.skid-less mat towel – 8.zip up sports bra – 9.cork yoga block – 10.goodlife trial membership – 11.gym bag

For the yogi, or the lover of being active person in your life (some this stuff isn’t just for yoga, like the trial gym membership to let them try before they buy). There is just one tiny thing with gifts of the active and physical nature, it’s that you need to be very careful how and who you gift them too. Someone who already lives an active lifestyle is going to love that you thought of this huge important part of their life and the gift is going to be awesome and oh so welcome.
BUT if that special someone isn’t currently active, sure maybe they have spoken a ton about how they’d love to start yoga or going to the gym? Well then maybe a really nice gym bag or some comfy yet functional work out (or relaxing) clothes would be a great plan for that person. Give them a gift that can be used towards their goal but not a gift that makes them feel like everyone around them thinks they need the gift and not a gift that is a constant reminder they haven’t used the gift after the season passes. It’s that really tricky balance. Hey if you ask me, all of these things would make awesome gifts I know I personally want every single one of them (hint HINT husband;).

The Kids | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide

the kids | 2015 holiday gift guide

1.kitty purse – 2.one piece jammies – 3.nerdy birdy book – 4.slippers – 5.world map – 6.casio watch – 7.instax camera – 8.princess in black book – 9.hunter chelsea boots – 10.penny skateboard – 11.weaving loom – 12.safe dart board – 13.living the dream tee – 14.fidoodle flip doll

As my kids get older (why do they have to grow up so fast!?) I have a harder time each year buying them gifts. Not just any gifts though, I’m always looking for that gift that will get a little sequel or an excited jump up and down when they open it. And those gifts get harder to find each year, or maybe it’s just getting hard to top the years before gift? Either way, it’s getting tough!

This is my ‘I still don’t know what toys to buy them, good for both boys and girls over the age of 4′ gift list. There may or may not be a couple of things on this list that I secretly want for myself too.
What jump up and down from excitement gift are you getting your little one?

For Her | 2015 Holiday Gift Guide

for her | 2015 holiday gift guide 1.all black nixon watch – 2.leaves of trees all natural deodorant – 3.saje essential oil ultrasonic nebulizer – 4.moccasin slippers – 5.faux cuff texting gloves – 6.super wide ring – 7.opelle satchel bag – 8.fates and furies book – 9.dipped mug – 10.pebble leather wallet – 11.boyshort calvins – 12.swell made co tote – 13.threaded earrings – 14.wool panama hat

Here we go with the start of our/my little gift guides, I hope to sprinkle them on the blog for the next week maybe two. Not going to lie, they are always pretty fun to put together and they are always the best way to start my own shopping (which I should totally be starting soon). At this point in the holiday sale shopping season, you might be shopped right out or your ears might be falling off from the amount of shopping and sales talk that has been going on (it’s sorta crazy over that black friday weekend). If that’s the case think of this as a fun inspo board, no shopping pressure. But if you are wondering what to put on your very own wish list or what to get your stylish good friend, mom or sister, well then this just might be the list for you or her. And I will have a list for him, the kids, the yogi and the host/hostess to follow in the next little bit — if you are into them, that is.

PS. have you started your holiday shopping? I always hope to be done by now, but of course as always I haven’t even started.
