Some gift baskets can be expensive so ask your brothers and sisters to pitch in money and get your mom one great gift.
Flowers
Flowers are the go-and-get gift for moms. No matter how late it is or what your budget, flowers will save your life. What you need to be careful about is the quality of flowers. you can get a dozen roses tie them together in plastic wrap and they will work for mother's day but women place a lot of importance on the quality of flowers. This could mean the kind of arrangement, the size, and the quality of flowers (No. of petals and fragrance). High quality will mean you have to spend more money. If funds are low don't go for the cheap flower solution because cheap flowers will lookcheap.
Jewelry
This isn't a gift for the ordinary guy or the ordinary mother. The gift means you have a lot of cash to burn and you'll have to spend it well so mom isn't just wearing mass produced jewelry but something special. Charm bracelets are a popular choice and so are birth stones. Before you buy mom jewelry, ask yourself if she'd wear whatever it is you're buying for her. Jewelry is only a good idea if you're mom likes to wear it around the house. A lot of people are under the misconception that jewelry means diamonds and gold. If you're mom is into modern chic jewelry made from gems or wood, don't try and give her a 20 karate bracelet that she might never wear.
