Conveniently arrange Mother’s Day gifts with these services
Even a busy girl on-the-go needs to properly acknowledge special celebrations, like Mother’s Day. Looking for or creating thoughtful gifts can be a time consuming affair, especially if you’re planning to do something that requires several steps. We found some great solutions to this dilemma and shared them below.
Framebridge – Easy Custom Framing
Framebridge is a custom framing service that gives the customer control of the process right on their computer or iphone. Costs are lower than traditional retail frame shops, and perhaps, most importantly – the process is clear & easy to understand and super convenient – which is not something one can say about the traditional framing process.
We recently used this service to frame cute posters (from Mr. Boddington’s Studio) for friends who are new mothers. Once we had our posters, we went online and chose our frame styles and sizes. Then we sent the posters to Framebridge via their pre-paid packaging. Framebridge took care of the rest – framing and delivering the final gifts.
In total, it took us about 15 minutes worth of work to select our frames and package up the artwork. Since the prices are listed clearly – and all the steps are included (e.g. the prepaid packaging), the process was easy and worry-free.
The Bouqs – Simplified Flower Delivery
The Bouqs is a simplified (easy & clear) flower delivery service that offers charming farm-fresh bouquets.
Other flower delivery services, including FTD and 1-800-Flowers have overwhelming websites with too many tacky options and a long list of hidden fees that suddenly appear at checkout. With The Bouqs, quoted prices includes delivery and any other service fees. The website is simple and easy to browse – showing curated flower collections and easy-to-understand bouquet size options.
We set up a Bouqs concierge service that automates flower deliveries on recurring dates like Mother’s Day and Birthdays. It’s a relief to any busy, working woman to know that special occasions won’t be missed and last-minute scrambles will be avoided.
Naturebox – Subscription Service for Healthy Snacks
A subscription service is a convenient way to consistently receive almost anything these days. Something that a mother and other women on-the-go may appreciate is consistent access to healthy, delicious snacks. We’ve personally tried Naturebox and can attest to the fact that the snacks are awesome.
