3 Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at JMU chapter.

Mother’s Day 2014 is just around the corner! Unsure of what to get your awesome mom?

Here are three ideas to get you started.For the active, healthy mom:Pick out some cute exercise clothes for her! Everyone loves a good pair of yoga pants or exercise shorts. Or, if you’re feeling ambitious: get her a new pair of cute running shoes. If your mom loves to listen to music while exercising, maybe an iTunes gift card or a new pair of headphones (Skullcandy ones are great!) are the way to go. 

For the glamorous mom:If your mother loves trying new beauty products to keep her feeling “young”, you should definitely check out the monthly subscription services such as BirchBox, ipsy, GlossyBox, Julep Maven (get your first box for $2.99 with code FREEBOX at checkout! click that link!), or the PopSugar Must Have box. BirchBox and ipsy are only $10 a month, so you could gift her a solid three months of beauty samples for a great price!

For the mom who loves to cook:Check out Williams-Sonoma, a department store, or any kitchen store and look for some practical, yet unique kitchen items. You can never have too many spatulas and whisks! You really can’t go wrong when shopping for kitchen items. Cookbooks are another simple option- there are millions out there, so start looking now! Kitchen stores, as well as bookstores should have these available.
