my ideal mummy's day gift is just always seeing her smile when we join her on this amazing day. But, a rusted chain necklace would help ;)
Tweeted! @sewewenique
A day without housework or cooking, to have my sweet family do that all for me :)
Celebrating with my kids And my mom. And sleeping in....and getting my hair done.
Two years ago was my first Mother's Day after my daughter moved away to college. My husband and son took me to see the movie Wolverine on Mother's Day. My perfect Mother's Day would be doing anything but seeing Wolverine. ;)
Blogged about it :)
Facebooked it :)
Fan of your FB page :)
the ideal mother's day for me would be to have my whole family go to church with me and then enjoy anything that i didn't have to cook!!
I think it would be fun to go get mani/pedis with my daughter. She's a lot of fun to spend time with. And I'm guessing she'd pick green nail polish.
My ideal Mother's Day would be a day where the house is already clean, laundry is done and we could go out to lunch then come home and watch movies together.

I would love for my kids to surprise me with a professional portrait sitting - they are getting older and starting to go their separate ways...

I FB'd your giveaway (: Good luck to me!
I just tweeted it too! Thank you!
Spending the day in the beautiful Flint Hills of Kansas with my 2kids, my mom and MIL. I love family get togethers! Letting the men in our lives grill, make homeade ice cream and clean up after us wouldn't be bad either!
AND I follow this blog (:
Today my ideal gift would be a new lens for my new camera...so I can take beautiful pictures of my family!
I don't know what I would choose for myself for Mother's Day as an ideal gift, but I have hinted (rather blatantly) to my husband that i'd like one of your necklaces. :) Also gardening tools. Or flowers. I am pretty easy. Get me a spade and I am happy! :D
My ideal mother's day is just lounging around with my boys and some flowers and a card would be nice too!
My ideal ulitmate gift would be a day at Disney with the family :) ok i dream big...i'd be super happy with a new lens for the camera though ;)

My ideal mother's day present to my mom would be to spend some time w/ her. Since my move away a few years ago, she craves her girl time. Unfortunately I will be stuck at work that weekend...
Hmmmm... probably a weekend away with my hubby! Tho I was just showing my kids my falling apart slippers and told them that Mother's Day is coming up! :)
This year we are going to The Bahamas for Mother's Day. I think that tops all mother's day gifts! <3
My ideal Mothers Day gift would be to spend the day with my own mother.
What an awesome giveaway! Coffee and scones would be an awesome start to a perfect Mothers day for me. :)
I would love to have a day with no fighting. ha ha! ;0)

A day of harmony, one filled with children's sweet voices speaking kindly, helping hands before being asked, from sunrise to sundown a house filled with a spirit of peace and love, no guilty feelings on my part about how I haven't measured up as a mother, just contented harmony for the day....winning your gift certificate is far more realistic even if odds are one in a million, but I can dream, right?
My ideal mother's day gift would be your you are my sunshine necklace w/ teeny tags with my kids first initials :)

Since I'm not a mother, my ideal mother's day gift would be to be able to do something really special for my mom. If I could have the resourses to pay off her house, or eleviate a major expense that would be awesome. She's retired but still working & so I'd like to give her the ability to not worry.

ANYTHING would be great for Mother's Day. I hardly ever get anything- and I have 4 kids. Yes, I get the handmade cards from school and such, but the daddy should praise the mother of his kids on this day as well! shanna.u(at)gmail(dot)com
my ideal mother's day would be to spend the day with my family WITHOUT the teenagers fighting with each other. The best gift would be them not cussing at each other. lol

i would ask my mom what she would like or buy her a nice piece of jewelry or spend an entire day with her doing all the things she likes.

My ideal Mother's Day gift would be to go on a trip to Hawaii or the Bahamas, or anywhere FABULOUS (I'm not picky) and lay on the beach for a week!!!!

A day with no cooking, cleaning or laundry, just good food, family and friends.
My guys already gave me the perfect Mother's Day gift and they don't even know it. We spent last weekend on a road trip...we left home in storm warnings, drove through blinding rain (and lightning), got soaked, had a flat tire, and spent three days driving through the Kansas that I love. We left with little idea of where we were going, just knowing that we had to be home by Sunday. We drove back roads, visited historical markers (because), ate and ate and ate, and acted like idiots, together. They never batted an eye when I said, "Wait, I need a picture of this!" as we could see the fields burning against the evening sky. *sigh* It was fabulous!
I'm a FB fan. :)
I want something sentimental this year. My husband used to be a softy and do something sentimental but that seemed to stop when we had kids. Boo! A necklace or frame or something would be great!
The ideal Mother's day would be my favorite breakfast followed by a facial and a pedicure. Spending some time with my family and then just taking the evening to read by myself!
I am a FB fan
A day off from, you know, EVERYTHING! :)

Mother's Day is gonna be a tough one this year...first one without my Mom. So I would like for that day to be happy, busy with my family, plant some flowers, dinner at my fav rest...and no bickering from the kids! HA!...keep dreaming on that one!
dinner out (something that i don't have to plan and cook); a massage would be awesome or a weekend get away somewhere warm!!
My ideal Mothers Day gift would be a great handstamped initial necklace from your collection! I love everything you have!

Well, I wish I had my mother still here- but I don't. I would love to give the one with the camera - Capture Life - to my daughter who is a mother. I think we need to slow down and learn to live and really capture life as we live it.
I am going to follow your blog - Nizzy sent us here.
Thanks and blessed Easter.

Mine would be a day of pampering and then lunch with my girlfriends. Then coming home to some time with my kids and husband whine-free :)
I'm so glad you noticed I smell good:) Hehehe.
I'm not a mother. BUT the ideal gift for my mom would be having all of us kids (my 2 siblings are away at college-3 & 7 hours away-and i live 5 hours away)surprise her on mother's day (& possibly gift her a special something from the rusted chain!).
My IDEAL gift if jewelry!
To move closer to my own mother who lives halfway across the country. :(

A necklace with my boys' names on it to wear everyday or a study Bible; no cooking or cleaning up for a day....
Mrs. B.
I'd like a handstamped necklace with my girls' names on it. Or someone to clean my house and give the dog a bath.
I follow the rusted chain.
I'll take a nap, please. Or an hour with no bickering, fighting, or tattling.
:)
My ideal gift..a family day with a family picture!
aside from just having the day to spend willy nilly with my kiddos, i sure would love to have a new camera - to help capture and preserve all those precious moments. kristinmik at gmail

Time with my sons would be nice but two of them are out of state =( . I hope that phone rings!
Flowers are always nice too....hanging basket type & lots of blooms.
Just shared this post on Facebook & also follow you on FB ...
I have loved mother's day so much more the past couple of years since I've gotten married because my mother in-law is the MOST wonderful woman in the world - we love sending her something for her special day because she is always so sweet and loves everything! I think something shiny and personalized would beat last year's flowers, though, hands down ;)
it would have to be breakfast in bed and a nice boquet of flowers, thanks
the one word tab necklace is perfect!! :)
A day with no obligations (housework, work work) so that i can enjoy they day with my family.
Time with the family of course!!

I would love a day to be pampered- massage, nap, mani/pedi and then after I am all relaxed nice dinner out with my family.
Just a day without the kids arguing! Not too much to ask for, is it?
This! This would be my ideal gift.

A day filled with time together as a family (husband, daughter, son-in-law and two granddaughters) ... church, lunch, playing at the part or riding bicycles. And also a phone call from son who lives in Texas.
I would like to hear something, anything from my twin step-son. Last year got blown off (forgotten) the year before we had just gotten back from our honeymoon. I just want to feel like I'm making some progress. So I guess I'd like a break.....
Linked it on FB as well :)
my ideal mother's day gift would be one night by myself in a fancy hotel so i could a) have QUIET b) take a long bath c) watch HGTV because I don't have cable at home d) read.
:-)
i liked the rusted chain on FB.
i follow your blog.
i tweeted it (@raineydunn). have i mentioned i love everything in your shop?!?!?
My ideal would be to: sleep late, have someone else prepare and clean up after-a meal, to stay in my "lounge wear" all day and to read a book...uninterrupted.
Heavenly.
Right now I just want to say sleep because it's 12:30 and my 3 year old (my oldest of 3) is still awake and my to do before bed list is still a mile long. In my more sane, composed, and less sleep deprived state I'm sure I would say something sweet like their hugs and kisses or dandelions they pick for me from our back yard.

I'd love to be able to hug my mom and tell her how strong and brave she is, how she's taught me to be hardworking and a servant, to take her somewhere and spoil her. She deserves a special day after the year she's had.
Ah, just found your blog via T@iy@ at mycargoofjoy.blogspot.com and immediately lost myself clicking around and reading. I didn't follow you for the entry, so you know...I followed because I really enjoyed reading and will be back. :-) That said, my ideal Mother's Day will be the one I actually have planned with my 82 year old mom, her best friend of over 40 years, my elderly neighbor-who-is-like-family who recently lost her only (grown) child, my friend who has had both daughters (18 and 21) do many ignorant things and are now out of state and my own 19 year old son. The bunch of us are our own little family, minus 3 this Mother's Day, but I'm still reminded again how blessed I am to have them all even though most of them do stay on my very last nerve.
My ideal Mother's Day would start at church surrounded by my hubby and kids, there will be the Blessing of Mother's, I'll have tears of joy and gratitude, then spend the day with my family with them treating me and my mom like Queen Bees. We've been doing this for forever and I don't want it to change EVER! BTW..."queens" love necklaces ;-)
My ideal gift would probably be a brand new sewing machine.
I'm a Facebook fan.
You had earrings awhile back that I loved. And I need more earrings. :)
Hmm... so I just read the "rules." I was supposed to post my ideal Mother's Day gift. Oops. I'm actually still waiting to cash in my gift from last year. A night at a hotel... alone. I guess since I haven't used it yet I should get another one this year. Then I would get 2 nights!! Awesome.
Mine would be breakfast in bed and a day with the kids at the beach.Thanks for the chance.

sleeping in, a good cup of coffee and some sort of homemade craft gift to cherish

Hi must say as a momma of 6 beautiful children here age 16 and under, and 1 in heaven (lost to miscarriage Jan 20 2011). I get my favorite gift every year. A nice homecooked breakfast,a handfull of picked dandilions to start my day.
We go to Mass on Saturday nights...
Then hubby and a few of my younger kiddos plant pony packs of flowers in my patio containers.
(While I take pictures)
Then we have a nice steak BBQ dinner and eat sitting out back watching the kiddos play on the sports court and swing set!
Peace and Love,
Georgiann
I already have recieved a pretty awesome mother's day gift. my hubby let me go to Arizona all alone with no children for 4 days.
If I had to choose something else though. . .Nikon 85 mm lens.
FB fan!
I would love to get a new lens for my new camera!
My ultimate Mother's Day gift this year would be to take away the pain and grief from my dear friend Sue who's only child Zach passed away last month. Pray for her....
Thank you.
Ideal mothers day gift? Just a quiet day with my family. A wonderful meal at home. Peace.
Ideal mothers day gift would be my 3 girls handing me envelopes...one with a spa package in it. One with plane tickets for the hubs and I to get away somewhere exclusive where all plans were made, and the third being homemade cards from my girlies. Alot to wish for I know.
My ideal mothers day would be for my family to clean my house and then spend the rest of the day cuddled up watching movies, playing games and chilling together!
my ideal mother's day gift (to my own momma, i'm not a momma yet!) would be some family portraits.. which hopefully we will get to do soon! i know she would love it so, so much. thanks for doing this giveaway :)

I think I would skip for joy if my Hubby provided me with a professional house cleaning!
My ideal Mother's Day would be 1) not having to work (work in a hospital so don't have a choice there!) and 2) having my dd home from college & getting to spend a leisurely day together with her, ds & dh.
