Top 10 Gifts for Mother’s Day 2010!
There’s probably no person more deserving of our love and appreciation than the mothers in our lives! Treat the special women in your life to a gift that is just perfect for them!
For A Mom Who….
Loves to Garden: Beautiful Floral Gardening Tools!
From Celia Birtwell, this pretty and useful set of aluminum gardening tools includes a hand trowel and matching cultivating fork in gorgeous floral prints. The one piece aluminum tools are lightweight and strong, have an ergonomic grip and come packaged in an attractive gift box! (Give Simple, Celia Birtwell Pretty Woman Garden Tools, $36)
Hates to Get Up: A Civilized Butler Awakening Device!
This beautiful, black, lacquer clock wakes you first with the sound of a gentle birdsong, then a discreet cough and comforting words, “Good Morning Madam,” followed by a charming and amusing message, a different one for six months before repeating, delivered in a perfect British accent. One message: “I’m so sorry to disturb you but it appears to be morning. Very inconvenient, I agree.” (Signals, Civilized Butler, retails for $99.95)
Enjoys Baking and Flowers: A Cake Pan of Blooms!
I love flower arrangements that have a unique presentation and this one is amazing! Jane Carroll’s design features a bouquet of fresh orange roses, green hypericum, yellow crespedia, raspberry tea roses and arrives bursting from a reusable stainless steel spring form cake pan! This is a fabulous combination of blooms and originality! (Jane on Main, Blooming Cake Pan, retails for $79)
Is Super Busy at Home: Custom Business Cards!
Who says that stay at home moms aren’t allowed to have a calling card? Design a custom card for your mom at iomoi, a site which offers dozens of stylish choices with chic patterns or logos, brightly colored fonts and many monogramming options. There are so many appealing selections that it might be hard to choose a favorite, but I loved the Green Artichoke Finial, the Blue Ginger Jar and the Yellow Bamboo!
Follows Fashion Trends: A Bright and Sparkly Watch!
This fun watch features a ceramic appearing plastic watch band with a matching watch face in six fun colors including pink, purple, white, turquoise, and yellow. Perk up your mom’s summer wardrobe with this trendy accessory! (Toy Watch USA, Mini Plasteramic Watch, $195)
Play Tennis: A Terrific Tennis Tote from Ame and Lulu
This stylish tennis tote features five separate compartments for storing all of mom’s gear and is offered in nine gorgeous patterns. A monogram would be the perfect finishing touch! (Ame & Lulu, Tennis Tote, $98)
Lives the Preppy Life: Lilly Pulitzer Fragrances!
Lilly Pulitzer‘s line of perfumes offers three scents ideal for spring and summer. Wink in a pink bottle, is a feminine floral mix; Squeeze
Is Seriously Sentimental: Nesting Necklaces!
These Oxidized Sterling Silver Necklaces, handmade in North Carolina by artist Rhonda Wyman, are adorned with the silhouette of a mother bird perched on a branch, facing her darling baby birds. You can select the number of baby birds, ranging from one to four, to reflect the number of the little ones in your special mother’s “nest!” This is a fresh and wonderful variation on the usual versions of mother jewelry! (Uncommon Goods*, Nestling Birds Necklaces
, retail for $80)
Works 9 to 5 (and beyond!): The CEO Bag!
The CEO Bag is a chic and functional alternative to a traditional briefcase for the “on the go” working mother! When the bag unzips, it lays completely flat, creating an instant workspace. On the left it is a fully equipped tool station with pens, pen loops, highlighters, scissors, stapler, tape measure, a three ring punch, a calculator and Post-its! There’s also a large accordion style pocket, binders and spots to store business cards, CDs/DVDs and lap top. Best of all is how terrific this bag looks – it’s sold in black croc, orange, pink, and black with white trim! (C & G, The CEO Bag, retails for $229)
Feels a Bit Bohemian: Beaded Hoop Earrings!
The beaded hoop earrings designed by Viv & Ingrid are a fabulous accessory for any woman and offer a special finishing touch to any outfit! All of their signature semi- precious beaded wrap hoops are lovely, but for Mother’s Day, consider the birthstone collection which will allow you to select the stone and month for your mom! (Viv and Ingrid, Beaded Hoop Earrings, retail for $72 – $132)
And no matter what you choose to buy, cook, craft or create to honor the mothers in your life, know that every gesture means the world to loving, hard working women! Happy Mother’s Day!

Fresh and original ideas — Thanks!
Okay, I’m not your average girly girl, but I love everything on this list! The business cards are adorable, but the Butler clock is a must-have.
