What to get for Mother's Day?

Today on La Violetera's blog, we bring you some incredible ideas so you can surprise mom this May 10th.

This year, due to COVID-19, many will not have the opportunity that they have had in other years, like going out to eat with mom, taking her to the movies, on a trip, etc. However, this will not be an impediment to show that, today more than ever, we can embrace mom with our message of love and affection.

So, we share these special ideas for this day, which will surely help you celebrate mom and show her all your love.

Nowadays, e-commerce is our best friend. There are many platforms on our side that will help us send our message of affection. In addition, many online stores are offering discounts that we can take advantage of. Here is a list of gift ideas for mom. We hope they are very helpful!

1. Flowers

Flowers are a must on this special day. Mom loves to receive flowers, so keep in mind what your mom likes before choosing the ideal arrangement. Would my mom prefer a bouquet or an arrangement? What is her favorite color? Does she prefer large or small arrangements? What is her favorite flower? All these questions will help you find the ideal arrangement for mom.

Our recommended arrangements for mom can be found in the collection: Mother's Day. At La Violetera, we have a 20% discount on flowers for mom throughout the store. We deliver your floral arrangement right to your door.

2. Handwritten letter

This year, instead of just sending a WhatsApp message, send a handwritten letter. Technology has increasingly separated us from doing things like this. It really is a very nice gesture to receive a handwritten letter, and that way, it can be preserved and kept in a memory box. There are many ways to make it creative: try to write in your best handwriting, use dried flowers, print some photos, and decorate it. This way, your mom will feel that you have dedicated time and effort to it, and she will love it even more. You can send it by Rappi or Uber.

3. Online Course

Give mom something she's always wanted to learn. Today there are many platforms that offer online courses. A very good platform is Domestika which offers many courses. Some that many moms I think would like are watercolor painting, embroidery, calligraphy, etc. You can buy the course as a gift and have it sent directly to her email. If the course requires materials, you could also buy the materials and send them to her house. In these times, we all want to learn something new!

If your mom is a flower lover, you can also give her our Online Floral Design Course. We teach you the principles of floral design, exercises and techniques to make incredible floral arrangements. Formerly $100 and now we have it for only $10, so take advantage and give mom an incredible floral experience with La Violetera.

4. Make a playlist.

If your mom is familiar with Spotify or Apple Music, make her a playlist with songs that remind you of her, or a song that you share a memory with. Change the cover photo and put a picture of you two. Send the link via WhatsApp or Facebook. It's a nice extra touch.

5. Give a portrait.

Let's support artists/illustrators! Give mom an illustration of her and you or the whole family. If you can, print it and frame it; it's a very nice gift.

Here's a list of artists who could help you!

5. Spoil mom all day.

If you live with your mom, treat her like a princess and spoil her. Make her breakfast, lunch, and clean the kitchen. You can even order her favorite food or buy her a cake. If mom doesn't live with you, you can still send her a cake or flowers and video call her to congratulate her.

At La Violetera, we wish you the best day, enjoy it to the fullest and show mom love not only today, but every day.
