Have traditions in your family for Mother’s Day? For years, at our house, the tradition for me and my three guys was brunch at home (Swedish pancakes and our family’s breakfast casserole) followed by a full day of spring spruce up for the landscape outside. That day always kicked off the blooming season and welcoming flowers. It was the opposite of getting polished up to sit in a restaurant. Getting close to the earth and collecting dirt under the fingernails is not every mom’s idea of feeling honored though! I encourage you to decide for yourself what holidays should look and feel like. You’re free to celebrate or not celebrate as you wish. Will you discover something lovely within this collection of Mother’s Day Gifts to Consider? Not sure, but bet you’ll giggle along the way.

Crochet Raffia Sun Hat of Dreams
Years ago, a photographer friend owned a huge, romantic raffia hat not unlike this one. It was a traveling hat, and she snapped photos of her friends and family in that could easily fool you as editorial.
This hat looks amazing on everyone at any age, from girls to grannies, and I can’t imagine it ever going out of style!
With the #coastalgrandmother theme still in rotation, this particular hat and the whole look is very much in demand.
For Francophiles!
How adorable is this frame-worthy puzzle? Look at the colors and the design!

Here’s a voice-controlled smart speaker with Alexa which is perfect for any room.

As folks let go of too much screen time, renewed interest in unplugged pursuits rises…
