Five Star Gift Ideas

For your mom, who enjoys floral arranging and flower gardening, I have a few meaningful and personal gift ideas that she will surely appreciate.

1. Flower-Related Books: Consider gifting your mom a coffee table book or a guide to flower arranging that features stunning photographs, helpful tips, and step-by-step instructions. Books like "Floret Farm's Cut Flower Garden" by Erin Benzakein or "The Flower Gardener's Bible" by Lewis Hill can be great sources of inspiration and knowledge for her passion.

2. Gardening Tools: To enhance your mom's gardening experience, you can gift her a set of high-quality gardening tools specifically designed for flower gardening. Look for tools such as pruners, planting spades, or a durable pair of gardening gloves. These tools will aid her in tending to her beloved flower garden with ease and comfort.

3. Flower Subscription: Surprise your mom with a monthly flower subscription, which will provide her with fresh and beautiful blooms throughout the year. Some flower subscriptions deliver pre-arranged bouquets, while others send flowers in bud form, allowing her to create her own floral arrangements. This gift will bring a smile to her face every month, ensuring she always has fresh flowers to brighten up her home.

4. Flower Arranging Class: Consider signing your mom up for a local flower arranging class or workshop where she can learn new techniques and broaden her knowledge. Attending such a class will give her the opportunity to connect with other flower enthusiasts, share ideas, and expand her creative skills.

5. Personalized Garden Sign: A personalized garden sign can add a special touch to your mom's flower garden. You can have a sign made with her name or a meaningful quote about gardening. This gift will not only personalize her space but also act as a constant reminder of your love and support for her hobby.

6. A Trip to a Botanical Garden: Plan a day trip to a nearby botanical garden or a flower show. This gift will not only provide your mom with a chance to admire beautiful displays of flowers but also serve as a source of inspiration for her own garden. Spending quality time together while exploring her passion will create lasting memories.

7. DIY Flower Press: If your mom enjoys preserving flowers, a DIY flower press can be a thoughtful gift. You can assemble a flower press kit with wooden boards, cardboard, and blotting paper, along with instructions on how to use it. This gift will allow her to press and dry flowers from her garden, which can later be used for crafts, artwork, or even framing.

Remember that the most meaningful gifts come from the heart. So, choose a gift that reflects your mom's love for floral arranging and flower gardening, and she will appreciate the thought and effort you put into making her birthday special.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

“I made a map for my mums birthday and she absolutely loved it. Definitely buying another one soon, probably for another family member or friend”
