SAY THANK YOU IN WAYS MOM IS SURE TO APPRECIATE
Special moms deserve special gifts. With Mother’s Day approaching, you’ll want to shower her with a gift — and a day — to remember. Here are a few ideas:
-Spend the day at a paint-your-own-pottery store. Devote a whole day to painting mugs with Mom. Once the store has fired them, give Mom the set.
-Pose for a family portrait. Whether you break out the digital camera or hire a professional photographer, Mom will appreciate this reminder of her special day. Present the photo to her in a nice frame.
-Queen for a day. Moms’ days are usually filled with lots of tedious tasks. This is the day to cook, clean, fill up Mom’s car with gas, and take care of every little detail to make her day easier.
-Flowers, flowers, flowers. Not sure what kinds your mom likes? Choose blooms in her favorite colors, or select the flowers she used in her wedding bouquet. Potted flowers dress up both outdoor and indoor spaces and make a great gift for Mom after the party.
-And last but not least, jewelry. What Mom wouldn’t adore a new ring with your birthstone or a classic strand of pearls? Choose the perfect piece, and you’ll both relive a memorable day every time she wears it. (Hint: You might want a little help from Dad for this one.)
This striking strand of black Tahitian pearls by Mastoloni is available at Karats Jewelers for $6,250.
Barry Kronen designed this white gold, pink sapphire ring with diamonds, $6,900, exclusively at Karats Jewelers.
