Flowers. Chocolates. Jewelry. These classic Mother’s Day gifts have stood the test of time. And while diamond’s may still be a girl’s best friend, we suggest some alternative Mother’s Day gifts, inspired by the classics but as unique as the special momma in your life.
Start Mother’s Day out right by treating your leading lady to a tasty breakfast in bed. While this may not be a new tradition, you can make it extra special by serving her orange juice, coffee and pancakes grouped together on a new serving tray. Choose one to match her style, from elegant to rustic.
If the mother in your life loves florals, a bouquet of flowers is always nice. But for a longer-lasting gift that exudes style and thoughtfulness, look for floral furnishings and décor. Whether you choose new throw pillows to brighten up existing furniture, or select a new piece—from a sofa to an accent chair—florals are a classic favorite. Choose from romantic florals to bold modern patterns to suit your space and the recipient’s style!
This Mother’s Day, consider giving a beautiful gift that will add warmth and style to any room in her house. Rich jewel tones add a touch of luxury to your space, while complementing many styles and existing décor. A rug with brilliant saturated jewel tones may just be the perfect Mother’s Day gift.
Another thoughtful alternative to jewels is a jewelry case. Choose a case that reflect her style, as well as the size of her collection and available space. For large spaces and large jewelry collections, choose a traditional jewelry armoires or jewelry accent chests; while a jewelry ladder or wall-mounted jewelry cheval with a mirror serves multiple functions without consuming much space.
If the mother in your life loves gold, consider gold accessories! A gold accent table adds luxury to your space while a gold pendant can lend a soft, beautiful ambiance to your room. And why not combine two classics: roses and gold? Rose gold is on trend, and accessories in this metallic hue can add a finishing touch to your space and serve as the perfect Mother’s Day gift.
