Their sampler tin collection contains their most popular favorites, including blueberry and cream, fudgy confetti, and much more…a dozen in fact.

You can customize the number of flowers, starting with the Standard (10-14 stems) for $44/mth, the Deluxe (20-32 stems) for $56/mth, and the Grand (30-45 stems) for $69/mth.

Dagne Dover, Indi Diaper Backpack $215
If Mother’s Day this year includes your special lady who has (or will be) a new mum, get her something that’s pretty and practical. Most diaper bags are bulky and slide off the shoulders at the least opportune times. The Indi by Dagne Dover can be worn as a backpack (also can be a shoulder bag if that’s her preference) and comes chock full of pockets and pouches for everything a new mom needs. It even includes a foldable changing mat and two clips for stroller attachment. With six colors to choose from, every bag is made with (practically) indestructible neoprene and fully recycled Repreve liners (so it’s good for Mother Earth too).

Is your mom part of the over 36 million people who play Pickleball? She’s in good company as this sport has grown by a whopping 158% in the last three years. So next time she hits the court to do battle with her paddle, watch her intimidate her foes when she slides on these sunnies from Knockaround. Knockaround is the official eyewear partner of MLP. These special releases are polarized, glare reducing and FDA approved impact resistant lenses with full UV400 protection. Bonus – they come with cushy rubber nose pad grips, so they’ll stay on her face through the game and after, as she basks in her victory.

Raw Sugar, The Simply Glow Collection $30.99
For the eco-conscious mom who enjoys her self-care, this trio of smoothing and hydrating body care products from Raw Sugar are just what she needs. Raw Sugar’s products are Do No Harm (as in cruelty free) and are produced using what’s called a Cold Press Process. It’s a process that extracts much higher levels of nutrients from their plant-based ingredients (making them more effective). Even their packages are made with Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Plastics. This trio includes their signature, must-have scent—Raw Coconut + Mango in a sugar scrub, body butter and their mango seed oil + Vitamin E lip balm.
Bartesian, Professional Cocktail Maker $370
Because Momma likes her cocktails. This premium cocktail maker is like a single-serve pod coffee maker, but for bar grade level cocktails. Mom can load it up with four of her favorite spirits and then drop in any one of Bartesian’s cocktail pods for a perfect pour (mocktail, single or double). This is a great gift for the mom who loves to entertain, but prefers not to be stuck behind the bar the whole party.
