Finding the right gift for a mom can seem challenging. Moms are the glue that hold it altogether – caring for their family, working, cleaning and oftentimes cooking, plus so much more. They do it all! And what gift could possibly be good enough for the woman that does it all?! That’s easy…Look for gifts that would make her home more enjoyable. If you are looking for a unique gift idea for Mother’s Day 2021, look no further. Below, we share five home improvement ideas that the mom in your life probably won’t be expecting.
Buy Mom Flowers for Her Garden
What mom doesn’t like flowers? Buying flowers in a vase from a florist is sweet, but they will inevitably wilt and die. If the mom in your life has a flower garden, then help her add to it by giving her beautiful flowers that will bloom over and over again, reminding her of you. Check with your local nursery for good options.
Give Mom a Closet Makeover
Most people, especially moms, are too busy to perfectly organize their closet, but having a closet storage system makes the space look nicer and cuts down on the amount of time it takes to find things when getting ready. Give your mom the gift of a closet makeover – whether by you or by a professional. Just make sure you get her consent first!
Buy Mom a Home Repair Job
Home repair projects often get left undone due to a lack of time and/or budget. Sometimes, there are just more important things to deal with, but eventually, they stack up and become overwhelming. Do mom a favor and pay to have a repair done for her. Whether it’s the leaky faucet in the guest bathroom or the broken blinds in the living room, treat mom to a quick repair that has been secretly driving her crazy for a year.
Paint a Room for Mom
Painting is an easy, affordable way to spruce up or transform any room. Painting is also one of those tasks that gets pushed aside too often, but a new paint job can make a HUGE difference for a space. You’ll want to be sure she agrees with the color first, but painting a room for your mom, whether you do it yourself, or you hire someone to do it, is a great gift for Mother’s Day.
Give Mom a Framed Photo
Moms love photos, but often, the photos they love most get left in boxes. Treat the mom in your life to a beautifully framed photo. Photo frames can be expensive, depending on the style. Find one that fits your mom’s style and frame a beautiful memory for her that she can look at on her wall every day.
Whatever you decide for your Mother’s Day gift, make sure it’s something unique and thoughtful. Do something for her or give her something that will help to improve her home.
