Being in lockdown is not easy, especially when there is a special day that you used to celebrate with your loved ones. If you have been isolating for a while, you must have had those days of celebrating from afar or virtually. With another one coming on May 10th you need some Mother’s day gift ideas to impress.
I have been social distancing for more than a month now and wasn’t able to celebrate Easter, both my parents’ birthdays and my own, as I used to but I had to get creative and still make those days as special as possible.
In this post, I will share some ideas on how to make your mom feel special on the upcoming mother’s day. If she doesn’t live with you and you haven’t been able to properly hug her and see her then these ideas will totally make her feel special. Even if you live together this post is full of ideas for you as well.

1. Send her flowers!
Flowers are commonly believed to symbolize life and fertility. There is no one who represents this better than all the mothers out there. If you know her favorite flowers then you are in business, just pick them and click send.
There are countless flower delivery services across the country. Many of them even have discounts for this exact day.
The fdt.com offers same-day delivery Monday-Friday for the last-minute shoppers. If you schedule your delivery a few days ahead of Mother’s day (which is on a Sunday) they will deliver. That is awesome, don’t you agree!

Another company that delivers beautiful flowers is 1800flowers.com . They have international delivery service and their arrange of flowers are breathtaking.
There is also Proflowers.com that you should check out as well. They have 24h support and their website is extremely user friendly.
You can never go wrong with flowers!
2. Get her a gift card for mother’s day!
If your mama is a bit picky 😊 (which is a good thing it shows she appreciates the good stuff😉) a Gift card is the way for you. This way she can use the amount however she pleases. Speaking from a women’s perspective this is the best option if you are confused about what to get her! Another advantage is that you also save yourself a lot of time.
I researched two well-known stores and their gift card options for you. I also found some great offers that might interest you.
Sephora
We all know how popular Sephora is, I mean with over 200 brands and more than 13,000 premium products to choose from including perfumes, skincare, bath and body, hair care to name just a few, it is bound to be.
If you choose to go with Sephora then you should know that there are 3 options you have when it comes to their gift card options.
- E-gift cards which you can send by email. This is very convenient for the current situation. You can also personalize your gift card by choosing from the pictures they have or even upload your own. How cool is that? They even have an option for Spanish designs! Oh, and you pick the amount of money you would like to gift.
- Classic gift cards are sent through the mail and there are 5 different designs to choose from. The whole packaging is so presentable. It is a black Sephora box and inside a sleek, black, dual-mirror compact with the card inside. Oh, and the best part, it doesn’ t expire!
Let’s face it all women, including me, like to play around with skincare products, makeup, and everything connected to taking care of ourselves. I am sure your mother is no different and she will greatly appreciate a Sephora gift card.
I definitely like the personalized ones because every time she uses it she will remember that exact moment of receiving the card from YOU. So sweet …
