Femme Vertueuse: Last Minute Mother's Day GIft Ideas!!!!!

Having last minute plans for gift ideas or you just can't seem to figure out what to get your mum?Don't panic quite yet. We have a few gift ideas suitable for various kind of mums that may just sort it all out. The key thing is knowing your Mum and her preference.

1. A mother's Day card.
Yes,It is traditional but you would be amazed at how treasured words are.Every mum is different and for some, words are golden and deeply treasured.There are lots of things we take for granted by assuming that your mum knows how much you appreciate her.This is one day you can take out time to move from assumptions to expressions by letting her know the treasure she is to you.There are still some traditional mums out there you know.

Now for some mums, a card will pass as OK,but for some something definitely has to go along with the card. Being a child of african descent, predominantly Nigerian , I know what I mean when I say a card would not be sufficient for all mums. A card will suffice when you are younger but with age comes wisdom lol. If you know what I mean.

2. Bouquet of Flowers
If your mum is laid back ,Someone who would rather relax and unwind at home.Try a bouquet of flowers to go with the card, It would be the perfect icing on the cake. Make it a bit more special by getting a flower company to deliver it over. Cozy up with your mum all day,share a meal,some tea,some wine and dont forget some desert .It never hurt anyone.

3.A Gift Card or getting Her a Gift You know She Would Be Intrigued By
If your mum is not the traditional type , She is more into gifts and it may be a little difficult to figure out what to get her, a gift card might just do.

Get her a gift card to one of her favourite stores. I mean what better way to show love to a Mum who is extra particular by letting her see that you are well aware of her preference and taste and you appreciate it. Showing your love ,by showing an appreciation for things that are valuable to her is key. If this option is not suitable for her,some brainstorming might just do. What Does she like?What particular things has she showed some liking towards.Is it a particular perfume? A phone? Jewelry? or maybe its one of these uniquely shaped bags by Nigerian Designer 'Dots'.When you figure that out,It would be the perfect gift because it is paramount that your gift says I made some considerations towards your gift not I chose anything that was available.You want her to see her gift and actually mean it when she says I love it.

4. A Spa Day

This is for career Mums who forget to treat themselves sometimes or take some time out to relax. A Soothing and relaxing atmosphere which a spa provides will be just right.

A reliable source tells me the Spa at Four points Lagos provides you with that serene ambiance to make her feel pampered and feel like the Queen that she is.

5. An all Girls Day out With Your Mum

In this busy world, It may be quite difficult to make out time as mush as you would want to hang out with your mum.This is for all the folks who are super busy or have super busy mums.

What better way to make her feel special and make up for lost times than to treat her to an indulgent day of fun and Dining .Spend the afternoon at the movies, bowling ,walking or at the park. Whatever you think would intrigue her but the key thing about is you get to catch up,share laughs and make new memories .Crown the day with a Night out at a fancy restaurant.Don't stay out too late remember duty calls on Monday and enjoy every minute of it.
