Freshly Picked Gifts for Mom
I am in disbelief that it is almost May. This spring has flown by. That means Mother’s Day is right around the corner. I thought I would share some of my favorite freshly picked gifts for mom this year.
In this gift guide, I focused on three categories: home, beauty and leisure. Motherhood is hard work and sometimes it’s nice to indulge and treat yourself. Whether you are treating a special woman in your life, your grandmother or your sister you will find something to love in here.
As a busy mom I don’t always find time to do things for myself because I’m busy looking after two young kids. A little hint dads, women love to be pampered and I created this gift guide with the idea of relaxation on my mind! Along with a gift give mom a few hours by herself. I know I love a little me time 🙂

- Floral Robe: Moms need some indulgence once and a while! After a busy day, I love taking a shower in the peace and quiet and wrapping up in a soft robe. I don’t know what it is, but when I wear a robe I feel like I’m at a spa! Check out these beautiful floral robes for your mom.
- Throw Blanket: Who doesn’t love a soft blanket to cuddle with on the couch? I love this eco-friendly and affordable Herringbone throw. Super soft and beautiful to drape over your couch. I’m also obsessed with this faux sheepskin throw from Pottery Barn. It’s a luxurious throw. Your mom will love sitting down with it and reading or drinking a cup of coffee.
- Plants: Did you know plants can actually improve the air quality of your home? They remove toxins from the air such as formaldehyde! Instead of a bouquet flowers that will eventually wilt and die why not invest in a beautiful plant to add life to your home? Moms will love the greenery and it will add a freshness to the home.
