Mother’s Day is less than a week away ~ I especially like the idea of giving a membership to her local art museum, symphony or botanical garden ~ as that provides a year of “experiences”. However, if you want to send a little “something something”….here are some ideas.
Anything from Roberta Roller Rabbit. They have some adorable vanity bags from $40 that you can see here. Pair that with summer nail polishes or sunscreen for the pool.
Luxury bath products are always a great gift ~ Jo Malone (high end) is fantastic but for a more affordable yet luxurious choice, I like Molton Brown. The Coco de Mer or Heavenly Gingerlily are my top favorites. (Right now, they are shipping free with a $50 purchase and code BLOOM).
I remember all the special occasions (and that could mean breakfast!) when I was growing up ~ the table was set with beautiful linens and sterling silver~ no one does a table scape better than my mom. She put so much thought and effort into making our little world a beautiful one! She still does. Thanks Mom!!! You’re helping teach the 3rd generation now.
What is your favorite memory of your mom?
Happy Mother’s Day to all of you and yours!!!!!
xo, Elizabeth
My Mother taught me to give thanks for the little things, to always find joy in creating beauty, and designing a life with good intentions. I learned to sew, to prepare meals and a home full of love and to pay close attention to details, like candles on the table, and celebrate life.
As a daughter, sister, mother and friend, I appreciate all that she instilled in me and take nothing for granted. I know that she deserves all the love she has inspired in many – more than just on Mother's Day.
Years ago, I took one year to make a keepsake book for her with my art, my fondest memories and she told me she never knew that I loved her that much.
Thanks for the reminder – to again let her know how special she is.

PVE~ what heart warming images. The idea of a book filled with your art designed especially for her – well, there is no better gift. Happy Mother's Day to you and yours!
Love the plates…love it all!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all the mothers, especially Elizabeth! The greatest gift a mother has is a gratful, gracious daughter—thank you, Elizabeth, for being the woman, mother,and daughter so beatuiful in all ways. I love all your ideas and learn so much from you.
Rather than attaching a commerically printed card, my mother tucked a small person note into any gift. Althought that was more the fashion of her generation, this year I will share my love with a personally scripted note to Elizabeth and daughter-in-law Katy who do a great job of training my four young grandsons to participate and enjoy gracious living and love for life. Love to all, Mother
Your lovely mother educated me on beautiful "hock" wine glasses that she used at a party many years ago … I now have a full set that I have collected over the years! They are so elegant and fun to use. Cheers, Laura
Laura, how fun to know about the hock glasses! Mom, I learned everything i know from you!!!
Alexis~ Wishing you some of what you create for others every day!
Happy Mother's Day!!
