12 Unusual Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Half the challenge to buying a Mother’s Day gift is coming up with the ideas. I have rounded up some items that I love, and I thought it might be fun to share them with you. These are a combination of gifts that either I would like to receive from my family, but seriously any thoughtfully handmade card makes my Mother’s Day complete. Their lovely tradition usually combines some sweet wildflowers or store bought ones to the thoughtful gift. Last year, I was able to choose out some rose bushes and my hubs was so kind to plant them in our garden. These bushes have brightened my summer days with beautiful smelling roses. The above photo is a picture of my first batch of roses from my garden. Here are some of Mother’s Day gifts that I thought you might enjoy perusing.

A Note About the Nester

My maternal grandma, my mom and I all have birthdays in the month of May. Three generations of what I call, May Birthday Queens. So with my birthday and Mother’s Day, my husband gets pretty exhausted trying to keep up with all the holidays.

Cheers,

    I love your ideas…they are really great for me as a mom to receive! I discovered the tea forte while staying at the Inn at The Vanderbilt Estate (the Biltmore Estate actually). I loved having it every morning with my breakfast. Coming home I found it at a unique boutique and bought several of their gift boxed items. I even took pics for my blog but never posted that one yet 🙂 The rain boot and the bracelet are also something I would love…in case anyone is listening.

      So, give me some contact info on your husband and kids and I’ll make sure to pass along this list of Mother’s Day gifts! You are so nice to leave such a sweet comment! I LOVE tea, so it is always on my list of gifts. I hope you have a lovely Sunday and thanks again for your visit and comment!
