Mother’s Day is just around the corner and we want to help you make sure the day goes perfect! Celebrated annually on the second Sunday of May, it’s the perfect time for brunch, quality time and great spring gifts. Here are five ways to make your mother feel extra special this year.
BUY HER FLOWERS:
Sounds simply enough right? Flowers are the perfect gift to let someone know you care about them. Instead of buying her a premade bouquet of flowers, try creating your own of all of her favorite flowers, or ones you know she would just love.
Trader Joe’s, Piccolo’s Florist, Voila Bloom in Dundee and Purple Orchid Flowers in Bennington are just a few of the places in Omaha to check out for beautiful bouquets.
PLAN THE DAY:
Having the whole day planned out for your Mom will relive so much stress and allow her to enjoy the quality time with you and your family.
Make reservations for brunch (plan ahead!), take a stroll through Gene Leahy Mall, discover a new wine and cheese tasting spot. There are endless activities to create a memorable Mother’s Day.
CREATE HOMEMADE CARDS:
Instead of just stopping into the drugstore to pick up one of the hundreds of cards, make one of your own! Showing this heartfelt display of gratitude and appreciation for your Mom will put the biggest smile on her face!
ARRANGE HER FAVORITE MEAL:
Have you ever heard the phrase, “food is the way to the heart”? Well, to make your mom’s heart feel special on Mother’s Day, plan for her to enjoy her favorite meal. It could be pancakes in bed, lunch at the local sandwich shop, or an elaborate multi-course meal at a fancy restaurant.
Of course, there’s also the possibility of an indoor picnic, a snack of only chocolates, or a glass of her favorite wine and cheeses, if that is what your Mom prefers.
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT: Everyone deserves some self-care, so why not save your Mom the stress and plan it out for her! Manicures, pedicures, massages, facials and hair treatments can help the mother in your life relax and feel beautiful. With a salon or spa gift card, your mom can choose how to spend an hour or two of her time feeling pampered and special.
Plan a girls day and go get massages and mani/pedis! Not only is it the gift of relaxation but also quality time with your Mom.
