Mother’s Day is coming up (Sunday, May 11th) and I have started looking around for gift ideas. My mom is such a great person and I try to find something special each year since I don’t get to see her as often as I would like to. This year I came across some websites that were very interesting and helpful and thought others might enjoy them as well. I started at

Gifts.com, where they give you a variety of categories to view based on moms interests. Some examples are for the Eco mom, they have recycled bicycle parts clocks, solar chargers, and energy monitoring devices which also link you to Terra Pass. For the relaxation theme, I found heated body wraps, aromatherapy blankets and pajamas. A gift certificate to Oasis Day Spa is also always a nice gift for the mom in town. Practical around the home gifts or gadgets are also a great idea and can be found at Brookstone.

Red Envelope always has very stylish ideas with beautiful jewelry, floral kits, and journals.

Locally, I’ve always loved the downtown shops such as Quilts Unlimited, Innisfree, Chinaberry, Posh, or Londons. Many of these places will also ship. Hope these ideas help. Don’t forget mom.

What ideas do you have?
