5 great Valentine's Day gifts for working moms

Valentine's Day is a day to celebrate your romantic partner, but it's also a great time to shower everyone you love with gifts and affection. Moms deserve extra love on Valentine's Day, so don't forget to get your mom something special. If your mom works on top of all of her other responsibilities, there's even more reason to honour her sacrifices on this special day. Here are some great Valentine's Day gifts that working moms will appreciate.

• If your mom has been working too hard to schedule any recent family photos, why not set up a shoot for her as a gift?
• You can call a local photography studio and make an appointment to surprise her on Valentine's Day.
• You can order prints and even get a large one to hang on the wall, so she is often reminded of how much her family loves her.

• All moms love a little bit of luxury, and a cashmere scarf is about as luxurious as it gets.
• Cashmere is soft and elegant; a well-made scarf will last her for years to come.
• Get her a pretty red or pink scarf to mark the occasion on Valentine's Day.
• It's a great gift for moms who probably wouldn't buy one for themselves.

• Most working moms love a hot cup of coffee to give them a little added boost.
• If your mom is a coffee or tea drinker, get her a personalized coffee mug to remind her that you love her.
• You can buy a store bought mug and paint it yourself, or you can go the extra mile and design your own at a DIY pottery shop.

• Working while also raising a family can be stressful.
• If your mom has a hectic schedule, encourage her to take a day off by planning a rejuvenating spa day.
• You can take her out for a manicure or pedicure, to get a massage or facial, or any combination of these ideas.
• Follow up the outing with lunch or dinner, and be sure to pick up the tab.

• Why get store bought bath items when you can make them yourself?
• You can make your own sugar scrubs and soaps at home with a few easy recipes.
• Just combine olive oil with coarse sugar and bottle it in a mason jar.
• Make it pretty by tying yarn or ribbon around the lid.
• No matter which gift you choose, your mother is sure to be delighted and surprised by your thoughtfulness on Valentine's Day.
