I had so much fun putting this guide together! Because of everything going on right now, I want to dedicate my time to giving back to small & local businesses and I thought it would be helpful to share it with others. Send the item links over to anyone who is doing some Mother’s Day shopping for you and hopefully you will get some gifts that you just love, and support small business! I hope you all find this useful & have a happy & safe Mother’s Day!

XOXO,

For the mom always in the kitchen: I just LOVE personalized items in my kitchen and you can never have too may utensils. Here is some awesome cooking wear, a cutting board, and a personalized recipe card box.
For the mom who loves something personal: This MOM sign is just too cute (hint hint honey). These hand stamped key chains are super cute too! I just love love love this Mama Bear necklace (give me all the mama bear things!). Speaking of mama bear things, here are some super cute ‘mama’ hats and tees!
For the mom with a sweet tooth: Check out these super cute pretzels dipped in chocolate or these flower cookies!
A fun twist on the traditional flowers: Give your momma a single preserved rose to hold onto forever or a single 24K Gold Galaxy Rose.
For the mom who loves wine (or just a cute cup too): I have to have anything with a lid because, well, babies. So I think this insulated wine mug is super cute!
Care packages for mom: I think sending care packages are just a simple way to say you care! Especially if mom already has everything. I love this personalized box to add a little something extra for mom, this homemade care box is SUPER cute too. For the gardener mom’s, here’s a gift set to really give those hands some care after a day in the garden.
For the mom who wants just a simple card: This 3D quilled paper art is unique and would make this ‘simple’ card stand out so much more!
