As much as I'd love to create a homemade gift for my mom this Mother's Day, my artistic skills don't cut it like they did in elementary school. Of course, she would appreciate the gesture, but I can't say she would feel inclined to frame it and put it on display like she use to. (Can you blame her?) The gifts she would love today range from self-care essentials to home décor I know she wouldn't buy for herself. At the risk of spoiling the surprise, she has graciously reviewed the following items and given them her stamp of approval. She made sure to note she was especially approving of the feathered Sleeper pajamas, Osea beauty trio, and floral Le Creuset cocotte. The hints have been noted, so join me in shopping these Mother's Day gifts that are fit for any maternal figure in your life. Yes, dog moms count, too.
