Surprise Gift Ideas For Mothers Day
By Jane Kliperrs
Are moms lowering their standards for Mothers Day? Surveys show
that some moms just pray that their children and hubbies don’t
forget about Mother’s Day altogether. Other moms like Mona Holtz
of Bridgewater, New Jersey say all they need and want is for their
families to be considerate for one day and "not do anything
that would cause grief or yelling."
Deep down, there are more Mothers Day gift ideas to send husbands
and kids in the right direction. For instance, a spa treatment
is a no-fail Mother Day gift that shows you understand her need
for pampering after 364 days of taking care of everyone else.
Surprises Your Mum With Spa Treatments
There are a number of easy ways to find spa treatments for your
Mother’s Day surprise. At www.spaindex.com,
you can search 7,500 spas in 39 countries and even search the
"spa specials" to help you find package deal discounts
and savings.
For instance, Inner Spree Spa in Brooklyn offers three treatments
for $150 on Thursdays. Another site, www.spafinder.com,
lists over 1,400 spas worldwide and offers $50+ gift certificates
through the site that are valid at any of the spas listed. The
best thing about these gift certificates is that mom can choose
her own spa.
If you’re considering spa certificate gifts for Mothers Day,
then check out the services first to get an idea of how much to
buy. Fifty dollars may buy a pedicure or a manicure, although
half-day and full days at the spa run between $250 and $500.
Luxurious Bath And Body Products
Perhaps mom would prefer to do a little of pampering for Mothers
Day right at home, rather than go out somewhere with strangers
working on her feet. At www.bathbybettijo.com,
you’ll find a new line of luxurious bath and body products ranging
from baby bath oils to botanical blends.
The "Helping Hands Gift Set" ($26) contains a container
of whipped shea butter in lavender cedar or lemon almond scent,
as well as a bar of handmade soap and a pair of cotton gloves
that perform overnight dryness healing for the hands.
You can also find some unique gifts for Mothers Day at www.elizabethw.com,
which offers bath pouches made of wash cloth material in 12 different
scents for $9 each or, if you prefer, the $76 lavender spa set,
which includes three bath pouches, soap, bath oil and a candle.
Creating Your Own Mothers Day Gift Basket
Another option for Mothers Day is to head out to your local pharmacy
and mall to collect your own products to include in a Mothers
Day gift basket. You’ll need to choose carefully because this
option can get expensive once everything is added up. Your best
bet is to choose one particular area, such as the feet, the face,
the hands, or a bath soak.
Peppermint and citrus-ginger are nice wake-up scents, while lavender
and chamomile are good for relaxation. Aside from the products
themselves, you may want to buy a bubbling foot spa, a loofah
scrub brush, sponges, flower petals, an eye mask or candles to
go along with the package to make your Mothers Day special.
