Mother’s Day is right around the corner (May 8th), and if you’re like me and mailing something home… the time to start brainstorming what you might want to get mom (and his mom, and your grandmother…) is now!
I’ve had this record player for a few years now and I really, really love it. Christian and I have so much fun picking up records here and there and listening to them while we cook dinner or play dominoes (yes… we do these things, ha!). If your mom is anything like mine, there are some records in the attic that I know she’d love to pull out. I also recently got these earrings and they are so fun and lightweight. I love that they are sunbursts and make such a statement, especially for short-haired girls or with hair pulled back.
I think a kitchen utensil or towel with a bottle of wine or cookbook is always charming, and who can say no to a beautiful bouquet of flowers or an orchid? My mom is very creative and prefers anything homemade over a store-bought gift, and she loves it when we write her “stories.” I think I’ve shared this with y’all before, but she keeps a book of all of these stories we’ve written over the years – some are sweet and most are pretty funny – but they are fun tokens of our lives growing up and she really loves them.
ALSO, I wanted to share some of this week’s sales:
Macy’s: 25% off + free shipping at $25 with code FRIEND (through 5/2)
Neiman Marcus: flash sale, save up to 65% off select items starting tomorrow!
Horchow: save up to 40% sitewide through 4/28

I just lost my mom to cancer on Valentine’s Day- I have been dreading Mother’s Day this year. My mom was my best friend and all of the cards, commercials, email promos etc. that I have been bombarded with have made me so sad. I already added #2 to my cart- I can have it for myself and put some of her jewelry on it next to my bed…. So thank you 🙂
Oh Hillary that just put a gigantic lump in my throat. I am so sorry, and I know how much of a heartbreak this year has probably been for you. Thank you so much for sharing your heart. I know that your mom is with you everyday but I pray that she will hold you extra close in May. Lots of love to you and I wish I could hug your neck!
Thanks for making me cry at work- in a nice way! haha, But I appreciate your sweet words. I really cant wait for that little tray now!
Awww me too! Lots of love to Hillary! XO
Great gift ideas…love the starburst earrings!

Great picks! Last year my mum & I spent a day at the spa in town which was lovely! I’m thinking another experience-based present is in order for her this year too!
