Mother's Day Gift Guide 2020 - Quarantine Edition
Hello! As we all adjust to life in quarantine, we came to the realization that Mother's Day is just around the corner (May 10 to be exact!). With that being said, due to delays in shipping it may be wise to start thinking about (and ordering!) those goodies for Mom.
We have scoured the internet in search of the best gifts for Mom in every category. If you are feeling stumped about what to get your mama for Mother's Day in these weird times, then sit back, relax and take a peek at a few of our personal faves. You're bound to find something!
Beauty
It's pretty safe to say we've all been feeling the struggle of going without our mani/pedis. Olive and June is a nail polish company with an impressive selection of standard nail polishes in outstanding colors. What sets them apart from every other nail polish brand is their innovative polish bottle handle, otherwise known as The Poppy. The design of this unique brush handle allows for more control when doing your own nails, giving you a near-perfect at home mani everytime!
You purchase the brush handle separately and it can be used with virtually any nail polish. We also love their Mani Kits, which come in a variety of price points to fit your needs.
Another service some of you may be missing is your beloved eyelash extensions. Once you have added this step to your beauty routine, it is hard to feel human without them! Be RAD Cosmetics offers a solution to the potentially wasteful consumption of false eyelashes. If you are missing the look of your falsies, but hate the thought of having to throw away and repurchase them, the All-Natural Eyelash Adhesive Remover will become your new best friend. This environmentally conscious product will allow you to reuse your favorite pair over and over again, guilt free! Not to mention, they have some fabulous false lashes as well! Use code BERAD20 for 20% off.
Clothing and Pajamas
It's always nice to receive a comfy pair of p.j's as a gift, but this suggestion feels particularly fitting considering our current situation. With all the time mom is probably spending at home, she would undoubtedly love a luxurious and soft set.
Eberjey has an awesome selection of oh so yummy loungewear, pyjama sets, and even a work from home tab where you will find the perfect outfit for those early morning zoom meetings!
Personalized gifts are a great way to make mom feel extra special. We stumbled upon the super cool Club Chainstitch page while casually scrolling through Instagram, and instantly fell in love.
This fully sustainable small business is unique because each piece is embroidered by hand using a vintage chainstitch machine from the 1920's, giving it an old-school vibe. You get to choose what you want embroidered, the color of the tee-shirt, sweatshirt etc, and the color of the thread! Use code THANKYOU at checkout for 10% off your order.
Workout Apparel
Who doesn't love a good pair of leggings? Terez is a brand that specializes in bold leggings with fun prints, stylish athletic wear, and lounge wear. Whether you are using these clothes to actually work out or not is up to you! You can't beat the ease and comfort of a stylish, well made legging. They have a variety of other comfy items asa well, such as cute joggers and sweatshirts. Mom will be sure to love these!
Lululemon is a tried and true staple when it comes to athleisure apparel. When looking for quality materials and stylish design, you truly can't go wrong. Their leggings are a must-have for those of us who value comfort over pretty much anything else. Despite their affinity towards athletic wear, they have a huge selection of more tailored pieces that are suited for a variety of occasions. Check out their convenient Mother's Day Gifts tab where you can browse to your heart's desire (and maybe even do some self gifting while you're at it!)
Helping Hand
There are some days when you just don't want to adult. Cue: iRobot. With a full range of robot cleaning devices to choose from, iRobot products can cut your housework time in half! A clean house is essential to peace of mind, but there are some days where you just want to take it easy, and that's ok. Moms are some of the most hard working people we know. Gift them one of these miraculous cleaning devices and you'll be giving them the gift of leisure time along with it. 2 in 1!
While cooking can be therapeutic for some, for others it is a a task that they would rather avoid. For working moms that also have to keep up with the demands of now homeschooling their children, meal prep delivery services like Home Chef are a god-send.
Here's how it works : Home Chef has a different menu every single week that is chock full of distinct recipes that you can customize to fit your needs. Make your selections for the upcoming week and fresh, pre-portioned deliveries of ingredients will be delivered right to your door. Their customization feature makes it easy for anyone with a dietary restriction or fitness goals to create a recipe that is just right for them!
Jewelry
We know that during difficult times it can be comforting to have a sparkly distraction. After all, diamonds are a girl's best friend. During these times of uncertainty, people have been drawn to sentimental jewelry that provides them with a meaningful message. Evil eyes, religious imagery, and charms are a few of the things we at Jaimie Nicole are loving right now!
At Home Activities
Jonathan Adler is an American designer who is best known for his home furnishings. I bet you didn't know that he also has some pretty cute puzzles available for purchase on his web site! Who needs a boring landscape puzzle when you could have this fabulous rainbow one that you can proudly put on display upon completion?
Journaling is not only a great way to pass the time, but it can be extremely healing as well. If your mom loves to write, or you want to encourage her to get her thoughts down on paper more, Paper Source has a wide variety of designs and prompted journals to choose from. We just can't get enough of these!
Just Because
A bouquet of fresh flowers is an impactful gift for a variety of occasions. The only problem is, fresh flowers eventually wither away into nothing. House of Lilac has provided us with a solution to this pesky problem. Their Dried Flowers Collection (which ships nationwide by the way) offers a gorgeous selection of pre-dried bouquets in a variety of arrangement options. These babies will make a lasting impression.
Happy gifting! Our virtual doors are open to help you with all of your Mother's Day Gifting needs. Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can help guide you in your search for that perfect piece for mom.
XOXO,
