Well, I started out with the idea of showing some fun projects for making Mother's Day gifts. After pages of cheesy fur-like necklaces and tin cans punched with holes and planted with who-knows-what, I began to ask what moms really want for Mother's Day. Here's what I found.
At Huffington Post (2013) there's this graph, first published at Rants from Mommyland.
As you know, Mother's Day is a favorite of retailers everywhere. They would love for you to spend big bucks. A good example of this is Forbes. BuzzFeed suggests wine (an idea I like a lot) and alone-time.
Many of the articles about what Mom really wants for Mother's Day emphasize time off and time alone. Older moms and grandmas, on the other hand, may have all the alone time they wished for in years past.
Looks like it's up to you on this one.
