Looking for Mother’s Day Gift Options? We’ve got you covered!
We all know that Mother’s Day is the perfect day to let those in your life know you appreciate all of the hard work they put into their family. Whether you’re grateful for your mother, the mother you chose, grandmother, aunt, sister, or another strong woman in your life, you can celebrate her with some of our team’s favorite items. You know what we also recognize? How hard it is to know what to ask for as a mom ourselves. We usually think of buying something for ourselves last, picking up the cute new outfit we see for our little one, or just plain cleaning up the house from the day. So if you're unsure of what to ask for for Mother's Day, here are some tips from our team!
Mom to be
Leahco says they didn’t invent motherhood products, they just make them better. We agree! Our team loves the full body pillow, also called The Canoodle. The slim design fits perfectly in bed or in your favorite recliner. There’s also pockets to store things like your phone, remotes, reading glasses, and all the other little things you’re dropping when trying to move around while pregnant. The zippered cover is easily removed and can be washed quickly in case those late night ice cream cravings get mama’s new favorite pillow dirty.
It’s no secret that we love Belabumbum. Their pieces are ethically sourced, have tons of great options for color and print, and offer options for everyone: matching pant sets, night gowns, robes, and sleep shirts. Belabumbum has production partners in Peru, Columbia, and Mexico that work with women through ethical and dignified processes.
Bump Box is a subscription box tailor made for conscious mommas wanting to keep chemicals away from their little one (growing or new). The founders decided to create a monthly subscription box that takes all the guesswork out of what’s safe to use, and lets you try great products you’ve probably never heard of! You can try a subscription box or buy a previously curated box for specific pregnancy needs. The founders have even started their own pregnancy safe product line: Glow Organics.
From the elegant packaging to the subtle, pregnancy friendly fragrance, HATCH Belly Oil is a favorite for a reason. The botanical belly oil not only works quickly to hydrate deeply, it also reduces the appearance of scars and stretchmarks, and dries super quick! Unlike other belly oils you’ll use to help support your stretching skin, HATCH won’t leave you feeling oily. Even better? All HATCH items are made with all natural ingredients that are safe and healthy for you to use during pregnancy and recovery.
When we’re pregnant, one of the things we want most is comfort. And let me tell you, Kindred Bravely checks that comfort box with the material to the fit of their maternity clothing! From their Bamboo Classic Short Sleeve Pajama Set to their Louisa Maternity & Postpartum Support Leggings, we are thoroughly satisfied with the soft stretch and comfortability in these pieces.
Our favorite options for Mamas
Another great made for you option for celebrating the mama in your life with a little bit of romance, Date Night in a Box continues to be a favorite.

Some curated activities, a little imagination, and a great night is on the horizon!
Does the woman in your life love a surprise? Pack Up & Go will be a favorite!

Your official vacation destination package will arrive a few days before you leave. Will you be able to wait to open the envelope or will you spoil the surprise?

Duncan & Stone provide elegant, timeless, and thoughtful ways to pass on memories.
