This Mother’s Day, ditch the flowers and create a gift basket that’s as unique and special as Mom herself. By filling a stylish weekender bag with luxurious travel essentials, fun beach items, and thoughtful relaxation tools, you can craft a gift that encourages her to unwind, recharge, and enjoy precious memories that honor all that she does for her family.
The Foundation: The Perfect BagThe Weekender Bag from Beis is a perfect base for your Mother’s Day gift basket. Available in a variety of colors and styles, these chic weekender duffel bags are both stylish and functional. They typically range from $108 to $155, and boast a water-resistant canvas construction, a separate shoe compartment, a laptop sleeve, and plenty of interior organization.
Help Mom stay entertained on the go with the Airfly Pro Bluetooth Wireless Audio Transmitter. This nifty gadget allows her to wirelessly stream audio directly from her phone or tablet to airplanes, treadmills, or any device with a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Sun & Sand Essentials
No getaway is complete without some beach essentials. Pack a luxurious Sand Resistant Beach Towel – these innovative towels repel sand, making them easy to shake clean. Include a bottle of Vacation Classic Sunscreen to keep Mom protected from harmful UV rays. This is hands-down the best-smelling sunscreen on the market and includes an air freshener that includes the same wonderful scent.
Add in some chic Jaw Clips from France Luxe for the perfect way for Mom to keep her hair stylish and manageable while traveling or on the beach. These pretty clips can go from beach to beachside café thanks to their gorgeous designs. We also recommend the Sunlace Long Open-Front Duster. The lightweight fabric will keep Mom cool and comfortable and makes a great cover-up for trips to the bar near the pool.Pampering Touches
Mom deserves to relax in style. Slip in a silky sleep set from SilkSilky Beauty Sleep Sets or a pair of washable Lunya Washable Silk Pajamas for ultimate comfort. These low maintenance silk essentials will allow her to enjoy luxury without the worry about dry cleaning and maintenance.
For some poolside reading fun, tuck away a copy of Emily Henry’s Funny Story for a fun, page-turning read mum can enjoy. In the evenings, an LED Neck Reading Light will allow Mom to catch up on her favorite book without straining her eyes or constantly fussing with a clip-on reading light that prevents turning pages with ease.
Sweet Treats & Sentimental TouchesA box of Cordial Strawberries from Sarris Candies adds a unique and decadent touch of sweetness to the mix. To make the gift extra special and give mum a treasure that will last for years to come, personalize the entire gift with a custom Shutterfly Photo Book filled with cherished memories for her coffee table.
Presentation is Key
Fill your bag with all the goodies and anything you want to add as a personal touch, arranging them so they’re nestled in nicely and look plentiful. Tie a big bow around the handle for a festive touch.
Buy all of the items for a gift that will wow mum, or pick and choose a few that suit her perfectly. A hand-crafted Mother’s Day gift basket is sure to put a smile on Mom’s face and let her know just how much you care.
