If you need more gift ideas, don’t worry, we’ve got some stellar tips to help you figure out what else you could get her to show her your love this Mother’s Day weekend.

Let’s talk about mom. You love her and want her to feel cherished and special, right?

So you start perusing the stores, looking online, and reading magazine articles about what the perfect gift could be, but as you do this, a sinking reality sets in.

 All you can think of -- flowers and chocolate.

Yawwnn...!!

Not that mom won’t appreciate those loving gestures. You’re her kid. Of course she’ll like it.  But we’re talking about a gift that is not only just an expression of your love (heck, you could make her something handmade) but is something she really wants (like she’d want it even if you didn’t give it to her). A gift that satisfies her interests, her desires, makes her feel like you understand who she is as an individual, not just as “your mom.”

Everyone, including you and I, enjoys being understood like that. AND enjoys gifts like that.

So how do you figure out what THAT gift is? What can you buy her to really make her feel special?

These 3 steps should get your creative and inspired juices flowing in no time! And you'll be shopping like a pro.
