If you are in a rush to find the perfect gift for your mom this Sunday then please keeping reading. Finals may have hampered your efforts until now, but with at least a few days left it's time to refocus. According to a survey some 91% of mothers would prefer to receive a iPad instead of flowers this year, however, for most students that is a bit out of the question. Yet with Savvy Student on your side, we have you covered with ideas that appeal to all budgets.
The traditional Mother's Day gift is flowers, but if you want to be more creative here are some suggestions Savvy Student found for you on the web.
1. Print a photo canvas of you and your Mom, or of any other picture she likes. If a canvas is too much, how about a photo mug? A personalized wall calendar? Look online for coupons and discounts (Retailmenot) on shipping. Snapfish and Shutterfly have a whole list of items for under $10!
2. If you are still considering flowers, how about choosing a more edible flower arrangement. Check out Edible Arrangements for a wide array of fruit baskets and fruit bouquets. It's a more delicious gift for your mom and a much more unique type of arrangement. Though some of the arrangements are a bit pricy, there are some creative and cheap arrangements if you're willing to look around!
3. Make your mother a gift basket filled with her favorite things! Some of your mother's favorite chocolates, lotions, candles, or any other special little gifts can make for a relatively cheap Mother's Day gift that is bursting with originality, creativity, and love!
4. Make something for your mother! You can paint aprons, T-shirts, or tote bags—visit your local arts-and-crafts store for materials. If you don't feel like making any arts and crafts, bake something! Your mother will always appreciate something tasty!
5. Make a special journal! Write something on the pages of the journal to remind your mom of how much she means to you. Include photos, mementos, and snippets from special moments that you have shared together!
6. Get your mom a gift card for a spa treatment, a manicure, a pedicure, or any other relaxing, rejuvenating activities that she would appreciate! It's her one day of the year to relax. Make it a truly refreshing day!
7. The best gift seems to be the least obvious gift as well. Say "thank you" to your mother. If you won't be spending the day with her, give her a phone call! Show her that you appreciate her. A little gesture can go a very long way.
The best Mother's Day gifts come from the heart! You can be both creative and financially responsible! Best of luck with shopping and creating!
Happy Mother's Day!
