3 Last Minute Mother’s Day Gifts That Aren’t Flowers

May 10 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

3 Last Minute Mother's Day Gift Ideas that Aren't Flowers - You still have time to get her something she'll really love!

I’m not the only one out there still scrambling to pull together Mother’s Day gifts, am I? I didn’t think so.

No worries, though, with a little ingenuity you can still totally pull off a heartfelt gift that she’ll have no idea was last minute. Here are my top 3 favorite ideas and I’ve even hunted down some deals too!

#1 – Birchbox

My MIL gifted me a Birchbox subscription last year for my birthday and seeing what arrived in the beauty box subscription every month was so fun (also the boxes themselves are totally gorgeous). I found so many products that I now love, like this Benefit eyebrow gel, that I would never have tried otherwise.

If you’d like to get your mom a subscription, they’re having a 20% off Mother’s Day Sale – just use code MDAY20

If you’d prefer just one box, you can also get 10% off your first order using the code HELLO.

 

#2 – A Clean House

Amazon’s new House Services makes it incredibly easy to gift everything from a regular house cleaning to a deeper spring clean and even window cleanings.

Tell her you want her to have a relaxing day, and then put your money where your mouth is with this clever gift.

#3 – Amazon Show

Did you see there’s a new Amazon Echo out, called Amazon Show, and not only can Alexa tell you things with this one, she can also show you.

  • Watch video flash briefings and YouTube, see music lyrics, security cameras, photos, weather forecasts, to-do and shopping lists, and more. All hands-free—just ask.
  • Introducing a new way to be together. Make hands-free video calls to friends and family who have an Echo Show or the Alexa App, and make voice calls to anyone who has an Echo or Echo Dot.

I know this might seem like more of a Dad gift but I was surprised how much my mom loves her echo (now on sale) for things like listening to her favorite music and check the news… and with the new Amazon Show, she could even use it to call the grandkids.

It isn’t available until June 28th but you can pre-order now and make her feel extra special for getting her first.

Hope one of these options works for you!
