Mother's Day, arguably one of the most important days of the year, is just around the corner. But if you're short on ideas, fear not! A quick trip to Farmers Market will serve up a bounty of great gift options for mom.

Here are some terrific gift ideas that are sure to please Mom.

Custom-Crafted Gifts & Jewelry

Sure, jewelry always makes a nice gift. But, imagine how excited Mom will be when she receives an artisan-crafted, one-of-a-kind ring, bracelet, necklace or earring set? Daniel and Sara Weiss at Weiss Jewelry  have years of experience hand crafting jewelry specifically to fit all their customers tastes. Whether mom prefers a design from scratch or would rather re-purpose a beloved gem into a fresh new setting, Daniel and Sara can help you find the look she desires. 

The artisans at WL Handmade specialize in custom, handmade shoes, sandals and purses inspired by Moroccan designs and culture. Moms can always use a new purse to go with that new pair of shoes!

Perfectly Pampered

Treat mom to some skincare goodies from Kiehl's so she can continue to pamper herself long after Mother's Day has ended.  And, now through May 3rd, take 25% off your purchase (some exclusions apply)! Also for a limited time, check out their exclusive White Lotus inspired gift set featuring resort favorites for ultimate relaxation.  Or, maybe she'd like some romantic scented Colonial Candles from By Candlelight or custom-created aromatherapy oils from Essence of Nature?

Flower Bouquets

How about giving Mom a bouquet of roses that won't wilt? Sticker Planet's Vintage Floral Sticker Sheets wont die or cause allergies, and they can be easily mailed to moms far away. They're perfect for crafting, card-making, decorating planner books or adorning household objects. Available in-store or online at www.stickerplanet.com.  

And for the real deal,stop by Dewy Flowers for the freshest and most dazzling plants and succulents that instantly add life and style to any space. 

Breakfast in Bed

For an extra special surprise, why not treat mom to breakfast in bed. You can pick up farm fresh eggs from Marconda's Puritan Poultry or Farmers Market Poultry. Both poultry merchants also have sister butcher shops, where you can select from a huge choice of bacon and sausage meat. Pick up some fresh oranges for squeezing at Farm Boy Produce or Farm Fresh Produce!

Be sure to stop in Monsieur Marcel Gourmet Market for the perfect champagne to go with that fresh-squeezed OJ...mimosas, anyone? And, browse their aisles for the finest macarons, artisan chocolates and other specialty products to make the perfect meal.

Sweet Tooth

Is your mom the sweetest, but you're struggling to find her the perfect gift? There's no need to sugarcoat it everyone has a sweet tooth of some sort! If your mom is a chocolate lover, head over to Littlejohn's to pick her up some homemade chocolate or delightful English toffee. Magic Nut is a great choice for dried fruit slices or salty and sweet caramel popcorn. Over at Dylan's Candy Bar, you can completely customize a box for mom and be sure to get all her favorites. These sweet treats are sure to be the perfect complement to any Mothers Day gift.

Perhaps she's just in the mood for a hefty cook-it-at-home Tomahawk Steak from Huntington Meats & Sausage or Marconda's Meats. Gift giving can be fraught with anxiety, so the best gift might just be a Farmers Market Gift Certificate valid at any of our merchants. Purchase online here or visit the Farmers Market Office, upstairs at Gate 1.

We love to celebrate our moms at the Farmers Market. We hope you enjoy reading about them!
