Anyone that’s ever changed a stinky diaper, listened to toddlers wail or endured rounds and rounds of “Why?!” questions knows that Moms are awesome because they’ve patiently dealt with this for years and years. Moms work hard to provide their children with a childhood filled with love and care. From teaching us how to walk and talk to kissing our tears away when we bumped our heads or woke up from a bad dream, Moms are the most influential people of our adolescence and beyond.

Needless to say, I tell my Mom I love her whenever we talk and try to do special things for her year round. But when Mother’s Day rolls around I want to make sure to give her a little something special to show her I care. Browsing Blackhawk Hardware’s aisles never fails to give me great ideas for Mother’s Day gifts and I wanted to share some great ideas with you:

Mom-SpaBusy new Moms tell me their one break is when they take a shower so let’s make that time extra special with some of the luxurious lotions and soaps we carry. Scents like Rosewater & Jasmine and Lemon Verbena make for a wonderful aromatherapy experience to pamper Mom.

Also, what about that sweet ring holder and porcelain keepsake bowl with lid? So sweet!
