Writing is therapeutic for me, which means I write when I'm sad. I also write when I'm happy or feeling like I'm making progress in some area of my life that has been lacking, but I mostly write when I'm sad. Today I am sad. Very sad. My stepdad passed away yesterday...
10 Best Gift Ideas for mom this Mother’s Day
Looking for Mother’s Day Gift ideas? Here are my picks for the 10 Best Gift Ideas for mom this Mother’s Day!
I put this list together for every mom who shares in my yearly experience…
My Kids: “What do you want for Mother’s Day?”
Mom: “Kisses and cuddles”
Kids: “No really…”
…They know I really want the cuddles and kisses, but they really want to get me something to open. I know they are proud of themselves for coming up with a gift idea that I’ll love, going out to get it with their own money, and wrapping it for me. And while I don’t need anything, I have learned that they really love getting me something – resulting in this list for the 10 Best Gift Ideas for Mother’s Day…
Anthropologie never disappoints! If you are looking for a colourful gift for mom this year, you can’t go wrong with this amazing Boca Vase! Not only will it look beautiful filled with Mom’s favourite flowers (maybe Daisies?!), but it makes a stunning statement all on it’s own.
Boca Vase from Anthropologie – look at those colours!
Ok, I admit that I actually have this one (pics are of my TN) – which is why it’s on the list! This is one of my favourite everyday items that I simply CAN NOT live without – this handmade Bison leather (it smells SO good!) Travellers Notebook by Moose Doodles and Boo holds my Moleskin Planner, notes from school, important papers (that need actioning)… basically everything I need on a daily basis to keep organized! It’s stunning and keeps me sane. A must have for any busy mom. Trust me.

Water on the go! Hydration is always in style – but keeping hydrated with S’well’s new Pink Tropaz Steel Bottle is something mom would definitely love this Mother’s Day! The new stone-like texture and incredible colour options makes this a must have for mom! (If you are looking for this in Canada, check out Indigo!)

Ok, so this is a bit of a personal preference for moi, because I love (LOVE) anything Tory Burch – this year there are a few items that I think your mom would LOVE to have from Tory Burch.
With summer around the corner, mom needs a great pair of sunglasses to keep the sun from her eyes. And just because sunglasses are functional, that doesn’t mean that they should be gorgeous too!

This spectacular scarf comes in classic Tory orange (which happens to be my favourite colour) and a stunning soft blue – either colour will put a smile on mom’s face! These scarves are incredibly soft and will keep mom warm on a cool summer evening.
