Home Decorating Tips For Mother's Day
Professional Interior Designer Leona Gaita of Gaita Interiors of Larchmont, New York provides gift ideas and home decorating advice for those who wish to thank that most special lady of all - Mom.
Larchmont, NY (PRWEB) May 4, 2009 -- In the spirit of Mother's Day, Westchester County-based interior designer Leona Gaita of Gaita Interiors presents several home decorating suggestions and gift ideas for those looking to show appreciation to the mother in their life.
Freshly picked flowers are a great Mother's Day gift.
"A woman's home is her castle, and her favorite sanctuary," explains Gaita. "These decorating tips and gifts are universal - while also very personal - ways to make any Mom feel like a well-loved and honored queen on Mother's Day."
| | - A new outdoor plant, like an azalea or hydrangea, or even a baby tree. Gaita: "I received a plum tree for Mother's Day five years ago, and it makes me happy every day!"
- A glazed ceramic pot for the patio, filled with Mom's favorite annuals, to be enjoyed all summer.
- A framed art print by a favorite artist - medium-sized, so that it can be hung anywhere. Gaita: "There are some great sites online that allow you to preview the art in the frame of your choice. The selection is huge, and they're fast."
- Plenty of cut flowers - old-fashioned, but always loved. Gaita: "Flowers from a florist shop are festive, but fresh picked from the garden are lovely too. Tie them up with a grograin ribbon for a pretty presentation. Put a small bouquet in every room, to make Mom feel very special!"
- A punch list of handy jobs around the house. Gaita: "Make sure this list has been completed! This a great gift that will make Mom very happy."
- A dozen beautiful new fabric napkins, in a pretty spring color.
- A dozen place mats, the kind that can be wiped and put away. Crate and Barrel has a nice selection ranging from wood to woven vinyl to rattan.
- A pair of outdoor throw pillows in happy colors. Gaita: "All the better for afternoon napping under a shady tree!"
- A cozy soft cashmere throw in a fresh spring color.
- A good current picture of the kids in a beautiful frame.

Gaita concludes, "Remember, gifts don't need to be expensive, to make Mom happy What a woman wants on Mother's Day is for a gift to show that you know, appreciate, and understand her."
