Mother's Day Gift Ideas

In 2024, Mother's Day falls on Sunday, May 12. Are you seeking a winning gift to mark this special day beautifully but need more inspiration? Good news: the Ernest team has thought of you! In this blog post, learn more about the origins of this holiday and get plenty of suggestions for all budgets—and all styles !

For us, Mother's Day is essential because it's a beautiful opportunity to celebrate all the mothers around us : our work colleagues, our clients, our friends, our sisters, our cousins, our partners, our neighbours, and more ! Our team members thus like to highlight the countless qualities of mothers of all ages : patience, resourcefulness, generosity, dedication, versatility... the list could go on for a long time ! In short, as we appreciate all mothers, we strongly encourage you to spoil them. Without further ado, discover our gift ideas to delight your mother, the mother of your children, or your grandmother !

No need to break the bank to please a mom ! Removing a few tasks from her to-do list is often a highly appreciated gift—and it costs nothing but your time !

Do you want to write your mother a personalized, fun, or touching message to express your love and gratitude? Give her a beautiful, plantable greeting card from Mimosa Design ($8.50). In addition to moving her with your kind words, this gift will remind her of you as it transforms into lovely wildflowers in her garden !

Does the mother of your children (a.k.a., your better half!) need a real break ? A massage that you give yourself with this oil made from 100% natural ingredients by Bleu Lavande ($19.50) will surely earn you points !

Want to spoil a mother with a sweet tooth ? Several local companies offer selections of local, quality, and delicious products ! Give her a gift basket of chocolate delights from DouceSœur ($55.00), for example, or the gourmet box of the month from La boîte à bonbons ($36.99).

Does she love to wear elegant outfits and collect accessories ? Quebec is full of talented designers ! Give her a pearl bracelet from Ken & Jame ($40.00), to which you can add some adorable charms if desired, or a pretty ethical scarf with butterfly patterns made by Les Créations Fol-Artists ($69.00).

Is the mother you're spoiling into yoga or Pilates, or does she just like wearing ultra-comfortable and stylish clothes daily ? Give her a pair of beautiful leggings from Vêtements Mandala ($52.00), a Quebec company that celebrates body diversity by offering sizes from XS up to 4X.

If you have a more generous budget—or if you're pooling resources with others—you once again have a plethora of choices to find the perfect Mother's Day gift. You might consider giving Mom a Radiance weekday package at Strøm Spa ($194.00) so she can enjoy a body or facial treatment and access the thermal experience.

Want to plan a memorable and romantic outing with the mother of your children ? The Pleasure Getaway package from Auberge du Lac Taureau ($359.00) will make her jump for joy !

Does your mom love attending breathtaking performances ? Give her tickets to a colourful show from the Grands Ballets Canadiens or for an opera from the illustrious Opéra de Montréal (variable prices).

Unlimited budget, or nearly ? A trip to Europe, an electric bike from the Quebec manufacturer EBZE ($1899.00), a piece of art from a local artist, a luxury jewel, a designer handbag, L'Instant de Guerlain perfume offered at Le Parfumier ($650.00), a bottle of Louis Roederer Cristal 2014 Rosé Champagne available at SAQ ($963.25)... several exceptional gifts are possible to pamper your beloved mom !

To please a mom who already has everything and needs nothing, give her a unique experience, like a tea initiation workshop offered by Camellia Sinensis ($45.00) or a cooking class from Ateliers et saveurs (starting at $32.00).

Want to make a good impression during a meal or outing for Mother's Day ? Visit one of our boutiques to find an elegant suit or a more casual outfit.

The entire Ernest team wishes a beautiful Mother's Day to all mothers !
