By Carla Snuggs

Continuing on with Mother's Day Gift Guides, I've curated some of my favorite gifts for mom who love gifts for the home, wellness gifts and gadgets that make life easier. These gifts are perfect for honoring women in your life who deserve to be celebrated and pampered.

Bight Endeavors Candle

The gift that says more than just "I Love You". This Mother’s Day Bright Endeavors has got just the right gift to say "Thank You" not just for what she does, but for the sacrifice that it takes to be a mom. Bright Endeavors, a social enterprise, is letting love light the way this Mother’s Day with a limited edition Black Currant Orchid  candle designed to celebrate moms of the past, moms of the present, and moms of the future, especially those that need a lot more support and a second chance. Each signature glass candle is handcrafted and signed by participants of a 12-week job training program who are creating their own path towards professional success. One hundred percent of the proceeds go to participants who are not only learning job skills to gain independence, but also understanding their place in the broader world, how they fit into their communities, and how they can have an impact on the world. Every day is an opportunity to take steps towards a more successful future. This is truly a feel-good gift all the way around!

Mom’s these days are superwomen – they can rescue us from bad decisions, read our minds with one glance, and go from school drop off to work to soccer practice shuttle without chipping a nail. It is no wonder they why they are the most influential woman in our life. Being a superwoman takes commitment. These multi-tasking moms have little time for themselves.

Fanchest

For the mom who loves sports, Posh Beauty Blog suggests  FANCHEST! FANCHEST is the Ultimate Gift for Sports Fans because they curate 5-6 items of mom’s favorite team and deliver it to your door. Who wouldn’t be stoked to get a box of licensed gear from their favorite sports team. Above an example of Golden State Warrors Fanchest. My mom loves the Raider so I will be gifting one for her once football pre-season begins! This also makes a great Father’s Day gift.

The Morning Sidekick Journal

The Morning Sidekick Journal is an interesting gift idea especially for people that really care about gifting something that will add value to the recipient's life. We love the idea of gifting The Morning Sidekick Journal in the  Touch of Modern red edition. Mom will love!

 R Sprks Candles

R Sprks candles are a great gift for the mom who likes to give back and inspire. Lauren and Ella Reilly - 11 and 15 years old - are working to spread messages of positivity and encouragement through their new candle line, RSprks. The girls designed the company specifically around using positive messages both in the brand, as well as behind what the brand stands for. All the quotes used on the candle packaging were specifically chosen by the girls, as well as the overall concept of giving back.  R Sprks candles are all made in the Twin Cities and hand-crafted with the most high-quality, organic ingredients, including 100% beeswax, 100% soy wax, natural wooden wick to create the soothing sound, essential oils, and each made with extracts of the scent. Both Ella and Lauren are very passionate about giving back to the charities that they believe in - so they decided to donate 20% of all proceeds from their candles to the charity partners of their choice - including Perspectives, the Animal Humane Society, Hope Kids and the Smile Network. Some favorites - peppermint vanilla, orange citrus and French lavender candles!

RAYCOP  RS2 Allergen Vacuum

RAYCOPRS2 allergen vacuum is the perfect tool for giving mom peace of mind on the home front as it eliminates dangerous allergens and pesky parasites that are hiding in plain sight. What many may not realize is that there are millions of hidden critters, known as dust mites (and their fecal matter), lurking around in their households. The RS2 contains a dual filtration system proven to capture 99.9% of common allergens. In addition, the combination of UV light technology, suction and pulsating pads in RayClean Technology® effectively extracts potentially harmful microorganisms and outdoor pollutants, leaving home fabrics sanitized unlike any other product on the market.

Glasstic Glass Water Bottle

Glasstic, the shatterproof glass water bottle, offers the purity of glass with the portability of plastic, is BPA free, and comes with a lifetime guarantee. Since the glass is safely encased, they are allowed in most places where glass is prohibited. In case of breakage cleanup is easy and most importantly, safe. Hydration is key to good health. The wide opening allows for easy adding of ice and the double insulation will help keep mom’s drink cool a bit longer plus there is no sweating of the bottle on the outside. Mom can add fresh or frozen fruit to her water and again, the wide opening of the bottle easily accommodates that. There are 40+ color and design options perfect for Mother's Day and the just launched custom design tool lets you create your own style inserts (including photos) or printed bottle.

Pure Nootropics

Pure Notroopics products make fabulous wellness gifts, helping mom to feel relaxed and get great sleep. Formulated with ingredients that work with your body’s natural sleep cycle, Pure Nootropics Optimal Sleep Complex is essential for getting a more restful sleep when you need it. Combining natural ingredients magnesium, zinc, l-tryptophan, l-theanine, valerian root and lemon balm, this sleep formula reduces sleep onset latency, meaning it can shorten the amount of time it takes for you to fall asleep, even when flying through multiple time zones. Also try L-theanine. It is an amino acid that has a calming effect, great to take in the evening with a cup of tea to help wind down from the day.
