Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2019

Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2019

Spring has sprung, flowers are blooming, and Mother’s Day is around the corner!  We’re here to help you pick out the perfect gift for the special mom in your life.  Whether it’s your grandmother, godmother, sister, special aunt, or best friend, our list has something for everyone.  Check out this year’s list below!

Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2019

If she loves plants

Plants are a lovely, low-key addition to almost any space.  Whether it’s on her desk at work or a sunny windowsill at home, you can’t go wrong with succulents arranged in a pretty vessel.  The Melange of Succulents from Valley Forge Flowers features a thoughtfully arranged group of these sweet plants in a galvanized container with touches of brass.

If she loves fashion

No matter how fashionable or trendy a woman is, shopping can be tedious or stressful.  If Mom is constantly going from work to school to weekend commitments, point her towards Skirt boutique and their personal stylist consultation services.  Skirt can help with anything from a special occasion to a full wardrobe refresh.  Even better?  Skirt offers the option for in-home consultations with their stylists.  Talk about next level service!  (Also, there is no fee for these services, so make sure you include a Skirt gift certificate so she can really treat herself.)

If she loves working out

Some moms carve out time for self-care by hitting barre first thing in the morning or winding down after work with a yoga session.  Others prefer long runs or smashing Peloton goals.  For these moms, there’s a universal truth: quality workout apparel is a must, with bonus points for style.  In that case, we suggest a visit to Addison Bay‘s website.  The Philly-based site (and fellow Scout Guide member) offers a wide variety of activewear, bags, and loungewear that you’ll covet for yourself.

If she loves to try new restaurants

For the foodie mom, nothing is better than choosing from several amazing restaurants.  Luckily, we have an amazing restaurant scene in the Philadelphia area.  Give the gift of an amazing dinner by visiting Schulson Collective, a group of innovative restaurants from Michael Schulson.  From steak at Alpen Rose to sushi at Double Knot to Italian at Osteria and beyond, there’s truly something for every taste.  (Bonus points if you make the reservation for her.)

If she loves being pampered

Here’s a thing that we all know to be true – everyone needs some time to themselves and moms are no exception.  This is especially true if she’s always putting off that massage or facial because she’s juggling school events, meetings at work, and social outings.  Show her that you value that by booking her some “me” time!  We have two suggestions for you, because this idea is probably the most popular in our circles.

If you really want to swing for the fences, reserve the spa package at  The Logan in downtown Philly and send her off for a solo overnight.  It includes one night’s accommodations along with parking for one car, a $100 spa credit, and a selection of herbal teas and snacks in the Underground Spa’s relaxation room.

However, if you’re looking for something more low-key, book her a luxe mani/pedi at LaBelle Nail Bar in Ardmore.  Clients rave about the atmosphere, attention to detail, and level of service.  Let mom sit back in a cushy pedicure chair while she sips a mimosa and flips through a magazine.  Bonus?  LaBelle prides itself on using non-toxic and organic products, including Zoya, NCLA, and Bio Seaweed Gel polishes.

 

There’s just one last thing now that you’ve found the perfect gift:  don’t forget the card.  Happy Mother’s Day!
