1. I am obsessed with floral prints, and I love the bold colors of this iPhone case. It is clear, so if you have a gold iPhone it would be so cute peeking out.

2. This bubble bath is the absolute best! And I love the little wand it comes with. A little goes a long way.

3. My hubby and I were watching Shark Tank Friday night, and that’s when I heard about these beauties. A 15-year-old developed the idea to get his little brother to stop drinking so many sugared drinks. I have a hard time drinking water, and I think this might make it a little more enticing. What a pretty container!

4. The shape of this gold cuff bracelet is so cool.

5. In the last few years, I have really come to appreciate flowers, and I love getting them. Peonies were our wedding flower, and they are my absolute favorite… and in season this time of year.

6. What would a wish list board be without a Jo Malone perfume on it- haha. I recently got my mom the Peony & Blush Suede, and I love it. Anytime I smell it, I think of her.

7. This candle is a splurge, but it is amazing! It is very strong (you have been warned), but it will fragrance your whole house, fast.

8. These glasses are so fabulous. Enough said.

9. Rosé is my favorite right now, and it’s pink which makes it perfect for Mother’s Day.

10. Love this bracelet!

11. Softest blanket. Ever.

12. These robes are so pretty, what’s the point in getting dressed.

Here is a Mother’s Day gift guide for all you last-minute shoppers out there. Ever since I became a mother, I am not as good at planning ahead for Mother’s Day gifts. Partly because now that I am a mom I am thinking… hmm, what do I want for Mother’s Day. Then I have that “uh-oh” moment when I realize I need to get my butt in gear and buy some gifts. It also could be that Max keeps me so busy I don’t have as much time to think gifts through like I used to do. 🙂

For me personally, the best kind of gifts are those special luxury items that you truly enjoy but can’t justify buying for yourself. In my case, it would be bubble bath and candles. I am obsessed with taking baths, and I take one almost every single day. But I despise buying bubble bath for myself. I buy it for the kids, but it always goes so fast (I mean come on you have to use a very generous pour to get a lot of bubbles going). And then after I buy for the kids, I think… do I really need to buy it for myself too? So bubble bath is an awesome present that I love getting. And the same goes for candles. As I have gotten older, I have become pickier with brands and scents. I only like the good stuff. I love having candles lit all the time, even during the day. I think they add such a warmth to your home. But it’s really hard for me to justify buying a $60 candle when I know how fast I will go through it. So honey, if you are reading- bubble bath and candles, hint hint!

If you already have your Mother’s Day gifts figured out, these would be great gift ideas to keep in the back of your mind for any events coming up, or even for yourself.

Thanks for reading!
