When I give birthday cards (or any type of celebratory card), I always say something to the effect of “I hope this is your best {insert occasion} yetâ€â€¦.because it’s truly my desire that the recipient’s special occasions get better with time. This is my third Mother’s Day….and I must say – Mother’s Day has truly gotten better with time. For my very first Mother’s Day I officially announced my pregnancy to the world via social media. Wow! That was really something.
For my second Mother’s Day, Phoebe was about 9 months old and I was finally starting to hit my stride as a new mom and balancing the rest of my life.
And now, my third Mother’s Day, I find myself focused, not just on my own personal joy as a mom, but also focused on the community of mothers and mother-ers (those who mother but aren’t actual moms) around me…and really making sure that they feel recognized and appreciated every day.
I’m at that point in my life where simple gestures mean the most. Once you amassed a fair amount of “stuffâ€, you find that it’s the memories and gestures that really matter. And so, this Mother’s Day, I find it hard to focus on “things†and the usual round up of “things†to buy for mom. Instead, I’m shifting focus to the concept of crafting thoughtful gestures of love and gratitude…which brings me to NEST Fragrances and the art of the handwritten note.
Fragrance is such an integral part of our memories. This Mother’s Day, don’t just give a gift…gift memories — But more importantly, gift a message of love, gratitude and thanks. A NEST Fragrances candle, with the added touch of a personalized note card, written in your prettiest penmanship, adds a level of charm and care that cannot be matched. It’s nice to receive “gifts†but personal messages are next level “I love youâ€. At this stage, Mom has seen it all…she’s been there & she’s done that. But your thoughtful words, partnered with such a luxe gesture well…she’s going to just melt.
I use fragrance in my home to express warmth, love and comfort….and for the past four years, I’ve used NEST Fragrances in my home every single day. From candles to diffusers…hand soaps and lotions, NEST Fragrances rule the roost. It all started with Peony Blanche, the cheeriest, floral candle ever. It was love at first burn. And actually, before lighting a NEST Fragrances candle, you’ll immediately notice there’s a difference. The luxe scented candles have a way of filling a room before the wick is even lit….I discovered this when I gifted Moss & Mint to my Aunt Tina, entered her home and was welcomed by the beautiful scent. I said, “Ahhh, Aunt Tina, You’ve been burning your candle!” She said: Oh, no…it’s to pretty to light. It just sits there.” *WELP* I mean, that’s how good these candles are! Made of premium, cosmetic-grade wax, these candles are well worth the spend and they never ever disappoint the recipient. I’ve been gifting NEST Fragrances for years and my mom, aunts, cousins and girlfriends can’t get enough.
