This culinary herb wreath from Williams-Sonoma will delight any cook who likes to experiment. Handmade on a family owned farm, the wreath includes bay leaf, sage, rosemary and oregano and remains useable as it dries. It’s totally safe for cooking and looks and smells amazing. This is a great mother’s day gift alternative to flowers!
We just love the work of Rachel Ball and Mignon Kitchen Co. (pronounced “min-yawn” meaning cute in French) and her love for making food. This mother’s day gift box is a great surprise and contains both kitchen tools and edible treats.
EPOCA P Flowering Tea Gift Set – $31.58
You don’t have to be a tea lover to love this gift. The set from Amazon includes a borosilicate teapot and a gift canister with 12 different green tea flowers flavored with jasmine. The tealeaves are hand sewn into small clusters that unfurl into an exquisite flower before your eyes! Sit down and have a cup of tea with mom this mother’s day.
Haute Breakfast Collection – $42.00
Southern Culture knows breakfast and their Haute Breakfast Collection is a timeless collection. Just ask the folks at ABC’s Shark Tank. Wonderfully packaged, it includes bourbon salted pecan pancake and waffle mix, a whisk, a sugar shaker and 100% pure Maple Syrup. Just make sure mom invites you over that day.
Mother’s Day Gifts Under $100
Another great Williams-Sonoma find “the Olive Crate” offers a twist on the traditional gift basket that’s not only practical but oh so beautifully packaged. This gift set includes an organic olive tree, olive oil, avocado hand cream and exfoliating goat’s milk soap. Her face will say it all when she opens this mother’s day gift!
Who doesn’t like to be pampered? I bet Mom does. And with this upscale honey themed spa basket from Gifttree, she’ll feel like she is at a luxury spa on the Mediterranean Coast at least for a little while.
Is mom a nut about nuts? Would she love to get a gift from one of the most famous chocolatiers to the stars, Jonathan Grahm? You can’t go wrong with Compartes Chocolatier’s “Love Nuts”. As if the striking and colorful package wasn’t enough, you get almonds, cashews, macadamias, hazelnuts and pecans hand caramelized with Tahitian vanilla beans and then coated in chocolate, sea salt and coco powder. And, it’s one of “Oprah’s favorite things” so you know it’s good!
Mother’s Day Gifts Under $125
TONX Coffee Subscriptions –$114 (6 shipments)
Just. Good. Coffee. No bells and whistles and no fancy labels, TONX is truly a delight to the coffee lover. They search the globe for the best beans available, roast them to perfection, and ship. This subscription is a special mother’s day gift for any coffee lover especially if you can’t hand deliver it yourself. Just hope the delivery driver isn’t too tempted by the aroma.
Sweet Tooth Gift Basket – $100
“Purveyors of Yumm”, it says so right on Sugar & Plumm’s website.
