Mother’s Day this year is Sunday, May 8th. This is a day to focus on the important women in your life, especially your mother or mother figure.

Mother’s Day is the perfect occasion for a child of any age to show their mother how loved and appreciated she is.

Ditch the Vase for a Hanging Basket
Flowers are a beautiful touch to any indoor space. When you bring your mother flowers, odds are she has a vase readily available. It can be easy to end up with numerous vases, especially when flowers are often a great gift for several different occasions. While she’s sure to appreciate using a vase, she can also enjoy other flower holding options. One option she is sure to love is a hanging basket. If there aren’t already hooks in the home, they are easy to install. Hanging baskets are great for small spaces or in homes with pets or small children.
