hey mama!
i suspect new mamas would adore some alone time while empty nest mamas would love nothing more than some face time with her offspring, but here are a few ideas for those on the hunt for something to gift their number one fan in life.
1 - the new it bag: aloha rag's signature tote rocks the honolulu boutique's skull and monogram design ($24).
2 - mother's day brunch meet ecohashi, on-the-go reusable chopsticks ($12) accompanied by a lovely organic cotton storage bag made on the north shore. available online & at select island stockists (including red pineapple at ward).
3 - treat a leeward garden to succulent blooms from lanikai pot & plant and enjoy a complimentary notecard set when you purchase three small arrangements or one large arrangement. please email mary pat to order and arrange an appointment for local pickup. {via soh inspired!}
4 - malie mixes up an organic anti-aging elixir ($54) from hawaiian coffee fruit extract reported to repair and protect skin with its antioxidant rich formula.
5 - big island candies offers the sig zane designed lei 'ahinaahina box ($48) which hides an 'ono assortment of shortbread, biscotti, brownies and petite sweets inside its pretty package.
6 - the 'iwa birds will make mom smile but the message of 'oiwi's culture wahine jersey ($46) will be a happy reminder of why she loves to paddle.
7 - de-stress with ola hawaii's face lomi kit ($60) complete with lomi stone and guava stick for a pampering at home spa treatment.
8 - adopt-a-nene ($30+) from the friends of haleakala and help protect the 300 state birds that call the maui crater home.

I have been wanting that Aloha Rag tote for myself. Sorry Mom.
Being a new mama, I'm really excited that this will be my first mother's Day!!!! I really love the succulent blooms, looks like plants that I will have a hard time killing! I think that's a great idea for people who forget to water their plants. I also love the idea of adopting a nene. I'm originally from Maui so I've enjoyed seeing those birds up at the crater many times :)
maile - your secret is safe with us.
nenes must love the high altitude . . . i remember happening across quite a few while visiting waimea canyon a few years ago. and, succulents are on my garden wish list for the same reason too, kat!
Great post Leigh :-), you always have the best ideas...!
