Happy Monday friends!! We had one epic spring day here on Saturday and took full advantage of being outside all day long!! I looked at my watch when we got home and I had walked 8.5 miles!! Absolutely perfect Saturday and we capped it off with dinner and a movie at home. I can’t recommend watching Den of Thieves enough – such a great movie with an equally shocking twist!!
Getting into today’s post – Mother’s Day! My mom and dad will be here next week staying through the weekend and we get to celebrate together! I always put together a little gift guide for inspiration – not only for myself, but hopefully you’ll be able to give me some ideas as well!

- In Russian the word for “grandma” is baba, so I really think this mug would be a fun gift for my mom. She’ll be at our house a fair bit so we may just keep it here for her!
- Mark this pillow case as something my mom would never buy for herself! For a while now I’ve been hearing how wonderful these pillow cases are to help fight the aging process (wrinkles) and keep your hair from breaking!
- I’ve gotten my mom hooked on sheet masks and eye gels! These are my favorites and the ones I always send her home with when she comes visit!
- I bought this mantra band for my mom last year and she wears it every day – definitely one of my favorite purchases for her in recent years!
- Perfume is a very personal gift, but at this point in life I know my mom’s favorite scents and I know she would love this Aromaflage perfume that also doubles as a bug repellant – perfect as we are coming upon bug biting season!
- My mom wears slippers at home all the time and these are fun and stylish. I love that you can wear these even if you’re hosting people over at your house! Their also Megan Markle approved!
- If you and your mom have the same coloring then it’s a bit easier to pick a pretty lipstick shade for her. I happen to know my mom loves matte nude lip colors, exactly like me and this Lancome shaker trio is a great little gift!
- I think a custom gift is something so special and different. I had a custom fashion illustrationdone for my mom after our wedding as a gift from that day. It’s something that hangs in their home and I love that it’s one of a kind! I did a post about it when I first started blogging and to this day it’s one of my favorite gifts I’ve ever given my mom and my sister!
What are you doing to celebrate Mother’s Day?

So many great gift ideas! I have been looking for an eye mask so I will have to check out this one. I know you have raved about Patchology before, so I really need to check it out! Happy Monday!

These are good gift ideas. For mother's day every year I always like getting my mom some nice lotion, or a candle.

Love these sweet ideas any mama would love. A custom illustration is a brilliant idea. I am soooo happy your parents are coming in. You’ll have s ball. Happy Monday! xo
Those illustrations are such a wonderful idea! And what beautiful weather you guys had!
Great gift ideas! Slippers are always a good choice and anything custom is so special. Love all of these!

That mug is darling, and perfect for your mom! Yay for them coming to visit again, I love how often you guys see each other. I only see my mom once or twice a year! But she's coming today, and is super excited to spoil a certain toddler. Have a fabulous week girlie <3

I wish we had those kinds of gorgeous trees here. They are few and far between in Colorado!
I'm going to *remember* to send flowers 🙂
Love these gift ideas, super cute! In more recent years, I've actually taken my mom on a wine tour. We live two hours from some of the best wineries in North America so I take her for the day, to the outlet mall there and out for dinner. I'm all about experience trips these days.

Aww that mug is such a sweet idea for your Mom!
those slippers are too cute! I seriously would not have realized they weren't just regular flats. Happy Monday!
These are all such great gift ideas! I’ve heard such great things about satin/silk pillowcases in general, so I got us a set and it feels amazing. Eddie surprisingly loves it, too. I’ll have to check out that particular brand you’ve shared here. Those eye gels sound amazing, too. During the Sephora sale, I was going to get the ones by Tarte, but felt even with the discount it was too pricey for just one set, I love that the one you’ve shared here as more than one. How exciting that you’ll be spending Mother’s Day with your mom and that it’s a first one for you, too! Though you are a mama-to-be, you’re still a mama 😉 Thanks for sharing, beauty, and I hope you have a great week ahead!

Happy first being a mama Mother's Day! Loving all of these ideas! I've heard so many great things about those pillow cases and also love that fashion illustration!

Yay for your first Mother's Day! This is such a great list of awesome items…my husband isn't the best gift-giver (oh well haha), so lists like these totally help!
I love those Lancome shakers! The colors I have are bold, so I might need to try the trio. Love your choices. My guide is going live this week!
Yay for your first mother's day!! I'm sure it was be extra sweet this year 🙂 Mantra bands are such a great & meaningful gift to give- I have a few and love them!
I love the custom print! We had a couple done for Christmas for ourselves and for gifts and they are the best!
That mantra band is super cute & I think that mug would be a perfect gift!
The mantra bracelet is so sweet! I have been wanting one of those pillow cases for awhile, but it isn't something I really want to spend the money on for myself. Perfect present idea!!! Hope you have a great week!
That tree is GORGEOUS! Great gift ideas. My mom used to sleep on a satin pillowcase when I was a kid to help preserve her hair. That perfume is really intriguing. My mom gets awful mosquito bites, they love her. That one really tempts me. (have you smelled it?) Happy Monday! XOXO
YES! I've had my eye on that pillow case for quite some time but haven't pulled the trigger! This is a fab list – have a great day! xo
So many good gift ideas! I almost always give my mom perfume since it’s her favorite.
These are all such great ideas! I need to get on my mom's gift and this is perfect timing!
Those slippers are so cute, and I love the leopard print of them! With the girls being born in the middle of winter, I loved having slippers or thick and comfy socks to wear around the house, so the slippers really are a perfect mother’s day gift!
Sounds like a fun and busy weekend. Loving the lipstick trio!

I have heard such good things about that pillow case! That would be a such a great gift.
Some lovely picks. We call our father's 'baba' so that is interesting to learn.
I love the 'to the moon and back' cuff.

The illustration is such a good and unique idea! I love that!!
That lip color trio is so cute! I love the shape of them!
These are some great gift ideas. I still have to get my mom something. The bracelet and flats are things she would like. Mother's Day falls on my birthday this year so we will be busy that day celebrating with my family and my boyfriend's.
All those gifts are so lovely! I finally invested in a silk pillowcase and I stopped getting those tiny knots at the base of my head since I sleep on my back. Really love it!
Such cute ideas and all new-to-me products! The custom fashion illustration is such a unique idea for your mom or sister and those silk pillowcases look amazing! I want one for myself! Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
Cute ideas! That mug is precious. We did some little mugs with Walker's handprints at this little pottery painting place when he was a bit older and our parents all love it! 😉
Such lovely ideas! I love your blossom picture too. Gemma x

These are all cool gifts for mothers day..

I want that pillow case. I have wanted an illustration of me and my girls or something fun like the fashion one for a long time.
I love mantra bands and I need to checkout that pillow case. Sierra~Beautifully Candid
Just catching up on your gift guide! I love the idea of a custom gift – so special.
What great ideas! I LOVE that that perfume doubles at a bug spray as well!
I've been wanting to do a fashion illustration of my wedding dress for my mom… I just don't have any great pictures of my dress to use as a guide though… I think that's what's holding me up on it. I love that you did that!!
