Mum's the word...

How do you thank someone who loves you unconditionally (even with all those bad habits of yours)? A phone call is a good start. With Mothers Day around the corner (Sunday the 10th), we here at FOUND want to give you a few last minute gift ideas. Don't say we've never done anything for you.

First gift idea: Clothing. Don't forget your mom is a LADY! Ladies love new outfits!! Don't just grab the first thing you can find either. It's important that the item you select is something your mom already likes to wear, or something you love so much that you want to share with her. Your mom is one-of-a-kind, so why not get her a beautiful vintage piece?

Here are two great choices for mom.
The first is a gorgeous mint green brocade dress. Perfect for cocktail time with her!
The second dress is a casual pocketed peach dress with a printed blouse under it. This works great as two gifts. She can wear them together, or as separate pieces!
Second gift idea: Accessories. Second to clothing, and definitely easier to shop for if you don't know what size you mom wears. Jewelry, hats, bags, scarves, sunglasses, shoes...etc. Below is a picture of spring time accessories we have at our shop that would make a brilliant gift. There is an ivory woven purse with a paisley scarf, a 1950's hat with decorated with dried flowers, a coral and peach beaded necklace, and a couple of earrings. Its a fun surprise when you stock up a purse with smaller gifts like a scarf and sunglasses. Like a functional gift basket of fun!
Our third gift idea: Home decor. Dishware, Candle holders, frames and paintings are all great presents. We have a little bit of everything to fill that order. Check out some of the pieces below.
Just like vintage, and a fine wine, your mom just gets better with age. She is original, and built to last. So get her something that represents her uniqueness and apologize for breaking her favorite lamp when you were 7. Happy Mothers Day!
