Subscription boxes are
quite a thing these days, and although I don’t have experience with very many,
I do love the idea. When Elle wrote a post recently about her ultimate
subscription box, and encouraged readers to do the same, I was excited to come
up with one of my own. However, instead of creating a subscription box tailored
to suit me, in honor of Mother’s Day (this Sunday, eep!) I created one that my
mom would love.
If I were creating the
ultimate subscription box for my sweet mom, I would include the following items
every month. I sure do wish I had the money to actually send her all these
things each month, I know she would love it!
{stationery} My mom loves
to write notes and letters, so I know she’d love having a fresh supply of
pretty stationery to choose from. Also, since I’m often the recipient of her
notes, I would love this as well!
{jewelry} Since my mom is
retired, her lifestyle doesn’t really require much dressing up these days.
However, I know she still enjoys wearing pretty jewelry, earrings especially,
to make her feel like her. She loves pink, and these gorgeous Kendra Scott earrings would add a little fabulousness to her every day.
{photo frames or books}
One thing my mom always requests for holidays is pictures of Jona, so I like to
get her nice frames and albums to show off those photos. In fact, I think if I
gave her nothing but photo-related gifts every holiday she’d be perfectly
happy!
{nuts and snack mixes} My
mom and I are alike in so many ways, but one way we differ is our snacking
preferences. While I’ve got a sweet tooth for days, my mom much prefers salty,
spicy snacks. She would love getting a new salty snack mix to try each month.
{books} Both of my
parents passed their love of reading along to me, and I always love talking
about good books with my mom. She’s at a point in her life now when she has
more time to read, so if there’s a book I particularly love I enjoy sharing it
with her as well. I read The Friday Night Knitting Club a few years ago and
think it’s one she would like.
{coffee} If I ever saw my
mom without a cup of coffee in her hand in the morning, I might faint from
surprise. Her day has started with a coffee pot brewing for as long as I can
remember, and she thoroughly enjoys her morning cup (or two or three).
There you have it. If I
could create a subscription box for my mom, these are all the things I would
include. What do you think mom, do I have your approval? What would you put in a subscription box for your mom?
