W Collected: Mother’s Day No-Buy Gift Guide
Mother’s Day is this weekend, and with the current state of the world, it’s safe to say that people are going to be celebrating the day a little differently this year. The good news is, there are so many ways to show your loved ones that you care, and even better, there are many ways to express love without spending any money. Today, we wanted to share our favorite no-buy gifts for Mother’s Day.
Give the gift of time
Give her the day to do whatever she wants. Give her the luxury of sleeping in. Give her time to take a bath or shower without interruption. Give her time to watch or read whatever she wants, for however long she wants. Give her the keys to the car and, in the nicest way possible, tell her to get lost.
Give a piece of you
Make her an art piece. Pick some flowers and tie them up with a pretty ribbon. Make her favorite food. Gather pictures she will treasure and wrap them up or make a slideshow. Sew a little bag with some fabric you already have at home.
Labor of Love
Take things off her do list, whatever that may be. Wash her bedding. Detail her car. Clean the bathroom. Weed the garden. Organize a closet or drawer. Wash the windows.
The written word
Write heartfelt note. Tell her that you love her, and more importantly, tell her WHY. Few moms want little more than to hear why they are loved and appreciated. We should all be doing this every day, but especially on Mother’s Day.
