Buying a gift for mom can be a real challenge. According to “the kid” and my husband, it’s more than a challenge; it requires patience and inspiration.
Here’s a guide to some of interesting and useful products Mom will love this Mother’s Day.
VAN DANG FRAGRANCES:
Most moms love to get some sort of fragrance. It could be a scent they would wear OR it could be a scent they can use to create an atmosphere in their house.
While most places don’t have what I call “Fine Fragrances”, there are places that will have unique scents that can be used to create an atmosphere that will
create a positive feeling in everyone that is in the home. The place to find this type of fragrance is often difficult., but I have found a great place (IRL and online).
The line and the store are called Van Dang Fragrances. Kim Van Dang is the brains and “curator” for these fragrances. The array of products that Kim Van Dang
has put together is pretty amazing…. both in presentation as well as scents!
This is the bottle used for linens and room scents
Housed in our biophotonic glass dropper bottle, our diffuser oils are used to charge your crystals. Place a few drops on your crystal during your daily meditation, and then keep your scented crystal close to you – be it on your work desk and/or your bedside night table to scent your personal space.
All six VAN DANG launch fragrances are available in our oil dropper format: Solaire, Buddhapada, Rosa Luna, Acid Washed Dream, Night Harvest, and Veldt.
The price for each oil is $95!

For the Mom that Needs a Great Night Sleep: Night Swannies ($69+)
Night Swannies are eyewear that block over 99% of blue light between 400-500nm (as tested by a third-party laboratory)
Wearing your Night Swannies continuously 2-3 hours before bed will help you slip comfortably and easily into a deep and restorative sleep.
There are acetate frames with spring hinges that are available in a range of styles in sizes from small to large.
You can find the Swanick collection of regular eyewear and Night Swannies at SwanwickSleep.com or Shop on Amazon.com.
PS: There are Night Swannies available for men too as well as a range of daytime eyewear with protection against blue light. The styles are on-trend as well!
THE MAGIC WEIGHTED BLANKET
If Mom is someone who likes to get cosy and wrap up with a blanket, the Magic Weighted Blanket is a gift that she will have for a long time.
This comforting weighted blanket has been fondly referred to as “the blanket that hugs you back” and is the original “OG” of weighted blankets.
Invented by a father, driving his young daughter who was playing in the back when she put a “beanie baby” toy on his shoulder and it felt surprisingly very comforting. He had an epiphany
-what would a whole “beanie” blanket feel like? He came home and told his wife and she made a prototype in 1998! Since then, research shows that weighted blankets bring down anxiety
among other benefits. Manufactured solely in the USA, comes in a variety of the softest materials coupled with the glass beads sewn into the blanket, making this the best blanket on the market.
These blankets come in an array of sizes:
42 x 60- 12 pounds: $190
42 x 72- 12 pounds,: $220
48 x 78 – 20 pounds: $260 (the blanket shown below is 48 x 78 , 20 pounds, $260 and is chocolate chenille)
What a perfect gift to give to anyone who suffers from anxiety or stress? It has been shown to also comfort people with autism or who suffer from PTSD.
