Can you believe April is already in full swing? Before you know it, Mother’s Day (Sun., May 8) will be here. Before the brunch reservations fill up and all the floral arrangements are gone, we’ve rounded up some ways to help treat the mothers in your lives to a unique gift at any budget.

For the plant lover

For the nurturing mother with a green thumb, find the perfect plant at Succulent Native or order a DIY set for an activity to do together. 🪴

For the one who loves jewels

Austin-based company Kendra Scott has pieces for all types of moms + special opportunities to customize a one-of-a-kind design. Will it be earrings or a necklace?

For the movie lover

Whether she’s an action fan or a rom-com mom, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema shows all the genres. Grab some popcorn + enjoy a film with mom at the movies. 🎬

For the one who’s always jamming

Check out this Mother’s Day R&B Jam on Sun., May 8 featuring Grammy-award winning musician Monica at H-E-B Center at Cedar Park.

For the wine lover

Allow her to sip back + relax with local startup BOXT, a fine wine on tap delivered directly to your door every month.

For the one who deserves to be pampered

Give the gift of relaxation by purchasing a spa package at AWAY Spa or the Miraval Life in Balance Spa.

For the snacker + brunch-goer

From various cheeses and perfectly sliced meats to fresh fruits, there’s a little something for every mom on a charcuterie board. Try ordering a charcuterie board from The Peached Tortilla.

If brunch is on the brain, reserve a table in advance. Try: El Alma, Café No Sé, Mattie’s, Irene’s, Hillside Farmacy, or La Condesa. 🍽

Shop for shoes and accessories at Blue Suede, a boutique and lounge that offers beer, wine, and coffee. Take a look at the spot here.
