Treat mom and still practice social distancing. These Mother’s Day gift ideas will be delivered to your doorstep or available for pick-up.
This Mother’s Day will be one that all mothers remember. Being self isolated in your house with your family can be difficult on all family members, but especially mothers. Mothers are usually the ones who are planning meals, doing homeschooling and trying to make sure the family holds it together.
The reality is the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown life into uncertainty. It’s hard to remember what day of the week it is. You may be forgetting that you will likely have to order something online this Mother’s Day. It’s also a great time to send a little something to your mother-in-law, sister-in-law and some of your friends who may need a little something special.
Here are local businesses who are offering gifts that can be delivered to your home or available for pick-up. You can treat your mother to something special, respect social distancing and support local businesswomen.

Aikaboho
Since 2016, Jessica, the craftswoman behind Aikaboho has been inspired by her travels and “slow living” to design Bohemian inspired bracelets from semi-precious or volcanic stones. The volcanic stones have the added ability to be used for aromatherapy since they absorb oils well. Aikaboho also offers original earrings that will delight and make any mother feel powerful.
