Instead of giving your mother an overused gift idea, focus on spending time with your mom this Mother’s Day. Instead of paying for a one time gift, spend the money on something that could create long lasting memories and experiences. For example, instead of buying her a new coffee cup, take her to a pottery class where you can make matching cups. Make your mother’s day gift more sentimental this year.
