Mother’s Day is Tomorrow!

It’s okay if this is the first time you’ve come to that realization: life gets crazy, but there’s still time to make it special.

Gardens

Instead of a bouquet of flowers that will last a week, give her something extra special this year – flowers for the entire season! Gardens are the perfect accent to the exterior of a home, and it’s easier than you might think. You don’t need a green thumb to start a beautiful garden for your mother, wife, in-law, or grandmother.

Take a look at these Spring and Summer gardens and get inspired to give a gift that she will appreciate every day.

Flower Arrangements

If you don’t have a flowerbed waiting to be engulfed in springtime magic, it’s okay! Create an arrangement for her instead that can be hung from a deck, planted in a pot, planted along the driveway, or anything else your creative side can dig up. Head over to your local garden center right now and pick some out!

Herbs

In case planting a garden or flowers is not an option, we have one more idea that is simple and, well, delicious. Get her some herbs to plant instead! Nothing beats being able to use fresh, home-grown herbs in meals and drinks.

  • Basil
  • Parsley
  • Mint
  • Rosemary
  • Garlic
  • and many more!

Really Struggling for Time?

If you don’t have the time to complete the project by tomorrow, that’s okay! Make the promise to get started on her special project ASAP. Go out to the home improvement store and get the tools and supplies you’ll need to begin (to show your commitment of course). Mother’s Day is tomorrow, but we know you love your women, all-year-round anyway.

Any one of these ideas, or a combination, will make the special women in your life smile from ear to ear this Mother’s Day. Comment on Facebook with your ideas and finished projects.
