2018 Holiday Gift Guides

Unique Gift Ideas For Moms + Mothers-In-Law

December 15, 2018

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Met Store. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hi, sweet friends!

OK, lately I’ve been getting quite a few requests for unique gift ideas for moms and mothers-in-law and I’m so excited to share today’s post with you! 

Moms can be tough when it comes to gift-giving, right? I always try to find something special and unique for my mom that she doesn’t already have, but I also want her to really love it. Sometimes it can feel impossible to find something perfect without spending a fortune. And it can be even tougher to find the perfect gift for my Mother-In-Law.

So, when The Met Store approached me about a collaboration, right away I knew it was THE perfect place to find unique gifts for my mom and mother-in-law. (And now this is the part in the blog post when I say SPOILER ALERT! to my mom because her gift is definitely included in this post. So, Mom: stop reading please! Thanks.)

If you have an art-lover in your family, look no further. There are so many gorgeous gift ideas that you can’t find anywhere else. 

Not only will you find so many unique gift ideas at The Met Store, your purchases also support the Museum’s collection, study, conservation, and presentation of 5,000 years of art. Shopping with a cause? Sign me up. 

I’ve chosen a few of my favorites, but if you want more ideas, check out the Met Store gift guide here.

OK, now it’s time for all of the coffee. Shopping is hard! (Ha.) 

As always, thank you for stopping by and for all of your support this week! I truly appreciate it.

XO

Thank you to The Met Store for helping me cross some special people off my Christmas list! It was so much fun browsing their gift ideas and Art-Inspired Christmas ornaments.

I plan on adding some gorgeous ornaments to our tree this year. (Tell me I’m not the only one who shops for herself while Christmas shopping??)

I absolutely love this Van Gogh Irises covered mug with tea infuser! It’s the perfect gift for any tea-lover. Not only is it SO pretty, but it’s practical, too. And it’s only $20. It’s a work of art. (Like, for real.)

How pretty is this lapis pendant necklace? It’s a perfect gift for my Mother-In-Law. The flower-like design is inspired by a 6th – 7th century Byzantine gold necklace in The Met collection. How cool is that?!

You can shop their entire art-inspired jewelry collection here.

This gorgeous Mondrian composition shawl has my mom’s name all over it and is the absolute perfect gift for any art-lover. She can wear it every day or dress it up with her favorite LBD, she just can’t go wrong. 

You can check out more art scarves and shawls here.

I would love to know if you find the perfect gift for your mom or Mother-In-Law at The Met Store! Let me know in the comments below…

HI! I’M SUZANNE…

After working as a fashion executive for almost a decade, I’m now a stay at home mama to 3 kids and live on the North Shore of Chicago. I spend my days shopping online, decorating my new home and trying to get in a good workout, all while trying to play with my kids and getting the baby to sleep. Mom life is hard, but it can be sweet… XO

The OG. 🐶🥰    One of the questions I’m The OG. 🐶🥰 
 
One of the questions I’m asked most frequently is: How old is Scout?  
(Followed up by: Is he wearing a diaper?) 
 
My boy will be 18 in July (time to get a job) and yep - he wears a diaper.  👴🏻
 
Scout has been my longest relationship. I got him when he was 10 weeks old and we lived in Atlanta. He’s completely deaf and has cataracts in both eyes. His hips are worn out and he’s on arthritis medication. But man, he still has so much...life.  
 
I’ve been wondering lately if I’ll know when it’s “time.” When I’m keeping him around for my life, rather than for his.  
 
My heart hurts to think about it. For now, I’m trying to make his life as easy as possible and give him a whole lot of love...
