Mother’s Day is coming up and for those that aren’t quite sure exactly how to show Mom how much she means to them, we’ve found a few ideas to stoke your creative thinking fires. Flowers are always wonderful, especially together with a thoughtful card. But sometimes you’re unsure if that truly tells her “You mean the world to me.” Try some of these on for size, or perhaps put your own thoughts into tweaking them just a little to suit your situation, style, or Mom, to a tee.

Get together a number of items from the Texas Hill Country that remind her of her favorite places or that give her access to some of those special locations or events that will make her feel loved. Does she have a favorite spa, restaurant, or bookstore? How about a gift certificate, favorite dessert, or product from a Hill Country artisan? There are so many great ways to put this gift together that can tell Mom that you really understand her and want her to have a wonderful day and year ahead.

The Hill Country has a number of day spas that your Mom might love an experience at, including massage, yoga, facials, and simple luxuries that will make her feel pampered. Some serve specially designed meals, others wine, and some simply allow access to the most relaxing and peaceful views of the Texas Hill Country you’ll ever see!

You’ve no doubt seen countless details on any number of Texas Hill Country wineries before; this region is the second largest AVA in America, and produces so many award-winning wines we’ve lost track! Perhaps plan a day trip to some of the great wineries that produce this wonderful product, giving her the opportunity to see them first hand, have tastings, and enjoy the pairings that are put together personally for a guest as special as her.
