As spring is ticking on by,? I realized Mothers Day, May 10th,? is not so far away, and it’s time to start thinking about all the mothers in our lives and I always like to include a little treat for oneself afterall we work hard 365 days a year, we deserve a little something don’t we?<\/p>\n

Here are some ideas for gifts, that I personally would love to receive, some of which I have given or might be giving this year:) I thought I would share- (click on title of item if you want to be taken to that website for more info)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

IDEA 1. Love the idea of calling a local garden center and hiring them to go and plant flowers? or rose bushes or whatever strikes your fancy. I did this for my mom last year and it was such a nice surprise for them as well as being a gift that keeps on giving.<\/p>\n

IDEA 6. I am a huge book lover, and believe there is always room on my book shelves for another great book. I have gotten a few lately which I have to say I highly recommend and would make wonderful gift ideas for any mother!<\/p>\n

For the shoe lover, this incredible book Art and Sole by Weitzman is just fabulous and so much fun.<\/em><\/a> It features 150 art shoes done out of all the most amazing fantasylike materials you can imagine, each and everyone a masterful work of art and the perfect addition to any coffee table or nightstand.

Charlottes Moss’s new book, Garden Inspirations<\/em> <\/a>did not disappoint….if you love flowers and gardening sprinkled with a nice dose of blue and white you will adore this book!<\/p>\n

\"9780847844777_p0_v4_s600\"<\/a><\/p>\n

IDEA 7. How about for the dog, shoe or? lover these absolutely beautifier cocktail napkins<\/a>! They are as whimsical as they are pretty and priced so well!<\/p>\n
