Mother’s Day Gift Ideas & Giveaway!

Mother’s Day is less than a week away and although I’d like to do something nice to show my appreciation to my Mom, she’s one of those hard to shop for people who appreciates the thought, but is hard to please with the gift part.  So I’ve been brainstorming some Mother’s Day gift ideas she might like, and hopefully that the special Mom in your life would like too. 

Make sure to scroll down to see all of the ideas and enter the amazing GIVEAWAY at the end too!

First some Mother’s Day dessert ideas.  What Mom doesn’t like a sweet treat, so desserts always make a nice gift. 

1.  Flower pot cake

2. Edible fruit bouquet

3. Cupcake bouquet

4. Flower Cookies

Crafts make a great gift too.  Every Mom loves something made just for her.  Here’ are some cute DIY Mother’s Day gift ideas I came across:

1. Flower bracelet

2. Stenciled tea towels

3. Nest necklace

4. Teacup candles

Of course, a lot of women I know would prefer to pick out a gift for themselves, especially if they’re a little picky like a certain special lady I know.  And who doesn’t love getting a gift card and going on a little shopping spree?  Home Depot gift cards are a perfect gift option for any mom, especially if you are short on time and need something easy, but want to get a gift she’ll love. 

They’re especially a great gift this time of year because the Home Depot is planting ideas for Mother’s Day and a gift card is perfect for a mom looking to create her dream garden or outdoor space.  The gift cards come in dozens of cute designs and can even be personalized with your own photo and message!  Plus they’re convenient to use both in-store and online at HomeDepot.com.  You can also find great ideas from the Home Depot on their Facebook page or Twitter.

The Home Depot has been kind enough to spread the love to one of my readers too.  They’re giving away a $100 gift card!!!!!
