Hi Everyone,

I have a little problem and was wondering if anyone can offer me suggestions for a good birthday gift for my bf's mom? I want to buy something nice and appropriate. What do you think I should get her?

Items I've already bought in the past for past birthdays/mother's day/christmas:
- a plant (a potted orchid)
- red wine
- skin care (facial moisturizer)
- bath soaps
- gloves/scarf

BTW: I probably repeated most of the things I listed atleast a few times so you can see I'm running out of ideas.

Any help would be great!!! TIA

A few more suggestions (I think you live in Canada?) - if you're interested, these sites will ship internationally.

If your bf's mom likes tea, how about a gift set from sbsteas or some of their summer teas (check out the testimonials :smile: ):

How about a day at the spa for massage. My mother in-law loved that for mother's day.

this is usually what i do. i get a gift certificate to either their regular salon (it's always nice to not have to pay for color matience or a manicure) or to a spa. it's usually a hit. :smile: i attach it to something small (chocolates for example) to make it more personal.

It depends on your budget :smile:

I bought my boyfriends' mom (when I went to visit in Belgium the first time) a pretty broach from one of the local hand crafted jewelry stores. She loved it!

Wow!!!! Thanks everyone!!!! I'm so speechless, everyone offered so many great ideas.

As for a budget, I dont really have one... I guess I wouldn't wantto spend anything over $200CAN.

I'll definitely use everyone's suggestions for all future gifts!!! You guys are the best!!!!
