Thoughts on Mother's Day 2018

polka dot junction is an online home and gift site that is much more than a store online. polka dot junction incorporates an underlying story for nearly all the products it sells. With Mother’s Day approaching, the company felt that this would be a good time for people to know a little more about “the junction”.  Mother’s Day is special around here and the designer of polka dot junction fondly looks back and thinks about her now grown nephew. She states that when he was around the age of 8 or 9 he said to his Mom, “I’m glad that I’m not the mother because you have to do everything!”  She went on to add the question “Is this where we say “out of the mouths of babes?  My own adult answer to this question is that no one will ever love you more than your mother and for this, we designate only one single day of the year?”

For these reasons, L.A. Baker says that making Mother’s Day special is more important than buying stuff for Mom, “ it can be as basic and simple as letting your Mom know how much you appreciate everything that she has done to give you the best life possible.” The gifts then you give her are the cherry on the cake and just one more way that you tell her that you are thinking about her.

Finding a special gift for mom that fits your relationship with her can help to explain your love for her. “I always think that Mom might like something unique for the home such as beautiful accent pillows (florals are nice), some fun new salad or desert plates, a funny and or relevant cool mug, even a tee shirt.  What Mom (or for that matter woman) wouldn’t like a pretty cosmetic or travel bag (trip not included, unfortunately!)”

Each mom is different and has different tastes. There are a variety of gift items trending right now in our digital age. Check out some of our savvy and elegant phone or ipad cases. “They are personal, fun and not to mention, useful.  I do have some rather choice phone cases. In term of trends, we are still very much into this whole workout/fitness thing. I don’t mind mentioning that I feature some exciting and vibrant tank tops and leggings, also some Pilates related cards and gifts. Flowers never go out of style and I hope that they never do.  I don’t sell flowers but in the past year have created some floral designs which appear on a variety of home and gift items,” says Baker.
