Despite the snow that is still on the ground, it really is spring. It won’t be long before we are also thinking about Mother’s Day – including gift ideas.
Our Mother’s Days are usual quiet, sweet and simple. We spend some time together and by the end of the day I am truly made to feel like a very blessed person to have the family that I have.
Gift giving at Mother’s Day is huge – there’s no denying that. I should note that there is nothing wrong with a ‘no gift’ policy for any occasion – but I have to say that the flowers I usually receive are pretty special.
Want to branch out of flowers this year and are trying to find that perfect gift for mom? Or want to drop hints to your family about what you would love to see just for you? Look no further than terra20.
I think Eco gift giving was once upon a time seen as boring and beige. Items for the home were a neutral colour and there seemed a limited number of options when shopping. At least that used to my my experience. Those days are long gone and with terra20 in Ottawa and online, the options for gifts seem endless.
Whether mom is a cook, or loves to pamper herself, whether she’s a gardener or a fashionista there is something for every mom at terra20.
3 Mother’s Day Gift Ideas (That *I* would love)
1- Matt and Nat purse or wallet
Yes, I already have one in a stunning Ivy colour, but then I saw the beautiful blue and thought ‘SPRING MUST HAVE’
If I can’t have the purse, I’ll take the wallet.
I travel a lot and my cosmetic bag ranges from whatever free item I got with some purchase 12 years ago to a plastic bag. I love the pretty and stylish feel of this cosmetic bag. Add a few pieces to go inside for mom like lip gloss and lotion (two of my must haves!)
I know, I know, I think I put a Klippan throw on every gift guide, but pair this with mom’s favourite book (or book store gift certificate) and it it’s a gift that begs her to relax. Choose a spring colour to freshen up the room. I cuddle up with a book and my throw all the time on the couch, it’s become one of my favourite things to do!

I really looove the Matt & Nat Paprika bag!

or the Orwell bag works too! (really need a new purse!!!)

I’d pick Badger Balm lip balm – my absolute favourite, and it’s a little expensive so makes a good gift (for me!). It comes in all kinds of great smells and flavours but you can’t go wrong with Vanilla Madagascar.

I also really love those throw blankets you put on your own list. They are on my “mother in law” list already!
I’d pick the Evolutions Dinnerware teapot in the sand color. It’s always fun to have a new teapot, especially when you are big tea drinkers like we are, and I think that color is so warm and friendly.

My mom is huge into gardening, so would totally get a kick out of this butterfly habitat: http://shop.terra20.com/store/product/19018/CWood-Log-Butterfly-Habitat/
Also, this pillow…might like a couple of these myself 😉 http://shop.terra20.com/store/product/21273/Danica-Quill-Cushion-Cvr-17×17/
My wife has been working really hard at getting in better shape and would love the Loko Sport Jacket for her yoga classes. http://shop.terra20.com/store/product/9541/Loko-Sport-Long-JKT-BLK-X2/ Thanks, Becky!
I am in LOVE with the glo Hooded Spa Robe.
I also would love to try the terra20 Spring Cleaning Kit.
I think a nice, thoughtful accessory is always a good Mother’s Day gift. I love this necklace – very similar looking to the tree of life and a tree is a symbol that I often connect with family. Perfect for Mother’s Day 🙂

I also love the happiness kit from Love & Toast. I’m a huge fan of this brand and the kit doesn’t break the bank, it’s perfect for travel and the items inside smell amazing. I imagine it would make any mom feel happy – and a little pampered 🙂

I would want the Klippan Throw, along with that I would love to give my mother a family tree necklace with all her kids name on it.
