Nanny to Mommy

Everyday life can lead anyone to feel burned out at times, but being a mom means extra work to keep your family happy, healthy, and safe. It’s an incredible experience being a parent, but it’s also one of the most challenging things a person can do. This is why it’s important to look out for moms (and dads), whether they’re your parents or a friend or relative with kids. They might seem like they are on top of everything, but they will need a break once in a while, too. To show the moms some love in your life, here are some great gift ideas for when they need to slow down and relax. 

Welcome to a wonderful collaborative gift guide with The Hopping Bloggers for Mother's Day. Together we have put together items that would make great gifts for all the moms or soon-to-be moms in your life. And even though Mother's Day is right around the corner, some of these items include two day free shipping so you can get it here in a hurry.

Whether you are looking for a gift for mom or yourself, or the kiddos happen to get you a Sephora gift card for Mother's Day and you are looking for ways to spend it. I have a list of some of my favorite things from our Sephora Haul that you might like as well.

Here's our Mother's Day Gift Ideas for Beauty Lovers:

My son is adjusting to his new bedroom and I have decided to get him some kind of light to go in his room because it is very dark right now. He also has almost zero décor in his room. It's because we really didn't have a decorated nursery for him like we did for our daughter. I am terrible and never got around to it. BUT we have decided to a chic Star Wars theme for his new room.

I have known about 3DLIGHTFX 3D Deco Lights for a while now and since we have just now decided on a theme for his room, what better time to get him one of these! 3DLIGHTFX 3D Deco Lights are the perfect gift this holiday season. They have a full range of comic book, super hero, Disney Princess, sports and car lights that look as though they are popping right out of the wall. We chose the Darth Vader light because our son loves him.

Hammacher Schlemmer has unique gifts for everyone on your shopping list. I was so excited when I received the opportunity to include them in my Holiday Gift Guide. I was asked to pick an item from their HUGE selection for products. There were so many things I liked. Last year I chose The Award Winning Dump Truck, but this year I decided to get something for the hubby and I. So I picked the Ultra Slim Wine Refrigerator.

The Ultra Slim Wine Refrigerator is a dual-temperature wine refrigerator that secures 18 bottles yet measures less than 10"-wide. Ideal for narrow spaces—such as the end of an apartment’s buffet or island—while providing the convenience of a fully stocked kitchen cellar, it stores Bordeaux-sized bottles with seven chrome shelves that pull out easily for readjustment when storing larger bottles from other appellations. A built-in shelf supports upright and preserved wines.

Who doesn't love personalized jewelry? It makes a great gift especially for family that lives far away. With pictures so close to their heart, they can treasure these memories for years to come.

I love giving unique and personalized gifts. I know I have mentioned that already, but there is just something so wonderful when you give something that represents your loved one in a unique way.

When I came across A Touch of Dazzle, I just knew I had to include them in my gift guide. This is how A Touch of Dazzle describes themselves: "Jewelry that expresses precious moments of happiness for Moms, daughters, friends, and everyone in between. Our jewelry is all about creating relationships; taking something intangible and making it concrete and solidifying the most meaningful connections in your life with the message of jewelry.

I love fresh flowers. I love how they can give your space a little something extra. I have been buying flowers pretty regularly since we moved into our new house from our local grocery store, but they haven't lasted at all. I would rather spend a little more to get some flowers that last longer, so in the long run I'm spending less.

BloomsyBox.com is a subscription-based service in which they send monthly flowers fresh from the farms to homes and businesses’. They enable customers to sign up for fresh and unique flowers with convenient delivery (monthly) at really affordable prices. A basic subscription costs $34.99 per bouquet for a monthly delivery. Customers can suspend service when they’re out of town.
