Gift Ideas for Her

Gift ideas for the ladies in your life

Spend the Day:

  1. Take a painting class together. Leave with a personalized keepsake to remember the special day.

  2. Attend a comedy show.

  3. Go to a feel-good movie. Don’t forget the candy and popcorn.  

  4. Spa day: manis, pedis, botox, facials, massage- spoil her!

  5. Take her vehicle through the carwash, bring it back clean and with a one year membership. (Surprisingly affordable)

  6. Take her out for a day of fun and have a cleaning service come clean her home while you are away.

  7. Do a planned photoshoot. Find a scenic park, garden or sunset to capture some sweet memories. You can hire a local photographer for an hour, or DIY with a tripod: this one is an easy to setup, sturdy tripod for iPhones that I use all the time.

  8. Go get a blowout together, Ulta gives you $15 off your first visit! This would be great to do before a photoshoot. You could really pamper her and have a makeup artist do her makeup as well.

  9. Plan a weekend somewhere she loves, even better if you can pull off a surprise!

  10. Cook dinner for her with all of her favorite dishes and desserts, make sure to do all of the dishes and clean up. Add a special touch by bringing her a bouquet of her favorite flowers or succulent.

Gift Ideas:

weekender bag

This bag is the best to travel with! It is durable, spacious, has a shoe compartment and a high end look with a reasonable price tag. The leather is great quality and comes in several colors, mine (in photo) is Cognac.

the perfect robe

If my house is on fire and I get one piece of clothing to save.. This is it! Every woman needs one of these robes. Incredibly soft and cozy, and feels like you are wearing a blanket. You’ll dream about coming home to it all day.

personalized jewelry

This is my go-to gift around the holidays. Both companies let you pick from several colors and designs to have your initials or names inscribed. These necklaces, rings and bracelets are truly one of a kind and something any mother would adore.

Here are my two favorite retailers:

Collagen Eye Masks

I gifted these to all the ladies in my life for Christmas and am still getting rave reviews! I use these several times a week to depuff and prevent dark eye circles. These are a must for a long day of traveling to brighten up the under eye and leave your skin feeling refreshed. The cooling sensation that lasts for over 30 minutes are great for combatting headaches/ migraines.

MetalStraws.jpg

metal straws

I am a huge fan of companies doing away with plastic straws to reduce waste. However after a few minutes in the glass the paper straws start to disintegrate, resulting in a very unpleasant sipping situation. Having these metal straws to keep in your purse for when you are at a restaurant that only offers paper straws is a game changer!

Several Colors Available: here

dyson hair Line

If you are looking to splurge on your Mom and give her a gift that she will use daily and be completely obsessed with these two products are it. Once I switched over to the Dyson Blow Dryer, and now the Airwrap I’ll never switch back to conventional styling tools. The health benefits for your hair and time saving aspects make is totally worth the spend.

OilDiffuser.jpg

Essential Oil Diffuser

Fill your home with amazing scents without worrying once you leave the house that you left a candle burning. I like to start my morning with the eucalyptus and peppermint essential oils for a light, fresh scent. In the evenings, lavender and rosemary give a calming, relaxing aroma.

books

Having a book that you read together and spend time discussing each week is a gift that keeps on giving. These are some of my favorites.

Catch Phrase

Nothing makes my family laugh harder and have more fun than playing Catch Phrase at family gatherings. This is the perfect game to get everyone involved and enjoying the moment.

foldable beach hat

Aside from this being a really cute summer hat, it’s foldable! Perfect for throwing in a tote on beach days, or in a suitcase for vacations. Packing hats for vacas can be a huge pain, this takes up limited space and pops right back into shape.
