Fantastic Mother’s Day Gifts and Where to Find Them Locally

Mother’s Day is right around the corner, and while we have the Mother’s Day showcase every year (you can get your mom entered to win by clicking here), there are also some great local spots to shop for mom this Mother’s Day!

I love shopping local, and every holiday I do my best to shop at some of my favorite locally-owned businesses.

Check out these great Central Texas shops and these great Mother’s Day ideas from each of them!

Woods Flowers in Temple

Every mom loves flowers, especially when they’re from Woods Flowers at 1415 W Avenue H in Temple.

You simply can’t go wrong with flowers, but if you’re not great at picking or arranging them yourself, the experts at Woods Flowers are happy to help. You can even order online and get same-day delivery! Click here for details.

Cookie Addiction in Harker Heights

A cookie basket for Mother’s Day? You betcha! The cookies here are the size of my face; “ Texas sized”, if you will, and each a meal in itself. I’d like a few and a Diet Coke, please! Visit them today at 716 Indian Trail # 170 in Harker Heights.

Gogo’s Frozen Yogurt and Cupcakes in Temple

Gogo’s is my go-to cupcake place here in Temple. My fave is the blackberry cheesecake. Delish! Cheesecake, black berry cake, and a black berry on top. You can’t beat it!

How cool is this? Moms love handmade gifts, and May 5- May 13, you and your mother can make one-of-a-kind glassworks to celebrate her special day.

Take mom to Salado Glass Works to make your own sculpted glass heart, flower or hand blown glass bowl. Because the only thing better than making something for mom is making something with mom. Get signed up online today!

Blue Bell Ice Cream

And last, but not least, Blue Bell Ice Cream. You’re not a Texan if you don’t eat Blue Bell. It’s practically the law., and what sort of Southern mama doesn’t like Blue Bell?

BJ Ward, husband of one of our sales team, Marianne, once gave his beloved some Blue Bell he found in the radio station freezer and flowers from a vase in the sales office he passed along the way.

BJ, I think Marianne needs a gift from all of the above businesses this Mother’s Day. You can pick up Blue Bell and flowers at your local Cefco or HEB.
