Art in the Find Styling

If you find your closet getting out of control and need to organize, pair down or revamp your look, then ask for a e-gift certificate from Conni Jespersen of Art in the Find Styling! They’re available in any amount and she can help you edit your wardrobe, add something new or simply give a whole new flavor to your closet.


In 17th century England, “Mothering Sunday” took place on the 4th Sunday of Lent. It began with a prayer service in honor of the Virgin Mary, then children would present their moms with flowers.

Letterfolk

Do a lot of Instagramming or just follow a lot of fellow moms? Then you’ve probably seen these awesome letter boards on a recent post. Even if you’re not conducting your own ‘gram sessions, these Letterfolk boards are so fun to have around the house and can display everything from a motivational quote to a menu so the kids know what’s for dinner.child and dogcouple kissingwoman grabbing cookie

Cinepolis

Sometimes it’s nice to have some time alone with the hubby or get out for some fun as a family! Cinepolis gift cards let you enjoy everything these ultra-luxe theaters have to offer including fulling-reclining leather seats, a full bar (hello!), in-theater wait staff and even a kids section for the little ones to have fun while you sit back and enjoy the movie.


In 1914 President Woodrow Wilson signed a Joint Resolution designating the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day.

Away Luggage

If you travel anywhere ever, then you’ll want to add an Away bag to your short list of must-haves. These sturdy suitcases can take a bit of a beating, but they’re lightweight, and even have fun accessories like compression bags, laundry bags and ejectable batteries, so your phone never dies at the airport.woman with luggage child with luggage mother and child with luggage

Madsen Cycles

Your kids are what makes Mother’s Day (and every other day!) so special, so keep them with you 24/7. Madsen Cycles makes it easy to tote your kids around town, whether you’re biking to the park for a playdate or need to run a short errand to the store.

Jo Malone

Every woman has their favorite Jo Malone scent (we’re partial to Red Roses), whether it be in perfume, soap or diffuser form. Let your family know your favorite fragrance, or ask the kids—or your partner—to find their new favorite scent just for you.perfume bottle walking into store row of perfume bottles mother and child in store

Ona Bags

Want more family pics without lugging a camera around? Your iPhone is great for Facebook, but if you’re snap happy and want to bring your camera everywhere, put a leather Bowery bag from Ona Bags on your wish list. These bags are made to carry a camera, extra lenses and a few snacks for the kids.


Approximately $14 billion dollars is spent on Mother’s Day.

Petunia Pickle Bottom Diaper Bags

If you’re mom to a little one, chances are you’re carrying all your belongings, their belongings and the kitchen sink around with you on the daily. We love the Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bags, because a) these are the most stylish diaper bags we have ever seen and b) these bags do everything. Portable changing table? Check. Laptop compartment? Check. Insulated bottle pocket? Check.mother and child

Nordstrom

Nordstrom is one of our favorite stores—there’s literally something for everyone! Gifts card give you a little gifting wiggle room so you could buy yourself some comfy new bed sheets, a new Diptyque candle or those sky-high stilettos you’ve been eyeing for girl’s night out.


More people purchase fresh flowers and plants for Mother’s Day than for any other holiday except for Christmas and Hanukkah.

La Mer

Mmmm, luxury! Moms, you need a little self-care after running after your littles from morning to night! Take care of your skin with the classic Crème de la Mer or try The Eye Concentrate to diminish dark circles, so it doesn’t actually look like you were wrangling the kids from morning to night.la mer products

Pendleton

Yes, Pendleton has amazing sweaters and killer blankets that would make any of your girlfriends jealous, but if you haven’t tried their towels yet, mom, you’re missing out. You can opt for solid shades to match your bathroom, but we love the classic Pendleton prints that come on bath towels, hand towels and kids hooded towels.


According to a study by Insure.com 2017 Mother’s Day Index, the various chores moms do at home for their family would be worth $67,619 a year in the professional world.

Marrow Fine

No Mother’s Day gift guide would be complete without including some jewelry—every mom deserves something shiny! We love the dazzling pieces over at Marrow Fine that range from diamond pendants to dainty sapphire rings. Gift cards are also available if you can’t pick just one. (We recommend a whole stack!)
