Hello, my name is Maya and I am the queen of last minute shopping {I know the Internet is a circle of trust, so hopefully you won’t tattle on me too much!} BUT, to my mother’s relief, this year I didn’t totally drop the ball. Since my mother ‘says’ she reads my blog {oh, hai mom!} I’m going to keep this year’s gift on the DL – but it may or may not include one of these rockin’ gifts. Mom, you’re welcome in advance 😉
Here’s what made the short list for this year’s Mother’s Day gift:
1. This adorable fortune cookie box from Shopbop is perfect holder for a sweet handwritten note for mom. Write a little love note or words of encouragement that she can look to when she needs a pick-me-up!
2. A gorgeous terrarium is my new go-to gift. If you’re not into the DIY version for mom, I love the one I recently bought from my friend Marco at Alapash a few weekends back. Pick your favorite type and he’ll send you a gorgeous handmade terrarium that mom will absolutely adore!
3. One Love Organics newest cleansing sponge is seriously out of this world. It’s made of 100% pure konjac plant fiber, which detoxifies pores & smoothes skin while buffing away dirt & makeup. Plus, the heart shape makes it extra special for Mother’s Day.
4. Last year when I went to Paris, I brought home a sample pack of Kusmi tea for my mother as a souvenir. It quickly became her favorite, and now I’m burdened with bringing back a new flavor every time I come home from Chicago {kidding mom! kinda…} The loose leaf teas come in tons of delicious varieties and are perfect for any tea-lovin’ mama.
5. This gorgeous Samantha Willis astrology necklace is a thoughtful and personal gift for the hippie dippie {or astrology loving} mama. Plus, at $135 it’s a reasonably priced keepsake your mother will love forever.
6. One more reason mom’s are the best? They always have everything you could ever need in their purse. Make sure hers is always fully stocked with this adorable Pinch emergency kit!
7. I’m such a candle hoarder that my love has finally started to rub off on my mother! I love Nest candles and perfume’s delicious scents, and the fact that they last forever. Double awesome in my book!
That terrarium! I want one so badly!

That necklace is super cute! I'm going to have to check it out for my mom.
I'm obsessed with terrariums 🙂 Confession….I haven't gone shopping yet, eek!
I kinda want all of these for myself…does that make me a bad daughter?!
I am wanting all of these items for myself and for mom 🙂
The fortune cookie is so adorable!!! The terrarium makes me giddy!

Right?! So good! You'll have to stop by Alapash on Montrose soon! xx
Super cute picks! Love the fortune cookie from ShopBop!
I bought my mom the mini-mergency kit too! They're too cute!

I love this graphic, first of all. Secondly, cute picks! I got mine a giftcard to a really cute store so she can pick up some new kitchen essentials (I didn't know what color scheme she wants since she's in a mid-kitchen-makeover!)
