I started a Mothers Day Shop last year! We set out tables and bought cards, teddy bears, fake jewlery, ect, They kids love it! We kept everything under $5 so it was not a lot of money for mom to send in either! We asked our local private owned store to help us buy items at their cost and we paid them their dollar and asked more for the items we sold. It was a win win for everyone!
Hi ladies! I am new here and making a special gift for my mother in light of Mother’s Day this weekend. I am looking for some possible feedback and suggestions. I am making a special CD for my mom and looking for songs about moms. I have a few and I just found this really nice song by David St. Romain called "Twenty Years Late" and wanted to share it with you with Mother’s Day around the corner. The song is about appreciating his relationship with his mother which I found so touching. If you’re looking for a great Mother’s Day song, check it out at my sound cloun page
Hi I would like to add another great place to find service like flowers and other great things,such as food catering.
We utilize our local BOCES program. they charge a fair price just to cover the cost of the goods and services they provide while at the same time they get the opportunity to show off their work to the community.
We received rave reviews for staff recognition day this year. The presentation was wonderful.
We are doing a boutique and ordered our stuff from a local boutique where she sells really cute items for $12 and under, she gave us everything at a discount and I think it's going to be a huge hit. I'm not sure where your located but The Flop Shop in Travelers Rest, SC may be willing to help you out.
ImAmom-
Glad to see that you found ideas here on the boards. Thanks Sherri & Kassidy! The idea of a Mother's Day Boutique sounds pretty neat. Had another thought: how about inviting local companies that offer services that moms like, such as fitness centers, hair and nail salons, clothing stores and adventure companies (like horseback riding & white water rafting) to do a one-stop-shopping gift card fair for dads and kids? Probably too late to pull together for this year but something to think about for next year.
Please keep us posted on what you decide to do. We'd love to hear more : )
