Gift Guide No. 3 - Plant Presents

Plants are in - you're either a long time plant owner who knows there's more out there than succulents (plant people ARE the new cat lady) or you've pretty much killed every plant you've ever owned...and then you found succulents and snake plants (guilty as charged). There might be a third type...those of us decor fiends who spotted fiddle leaf fig trees on the pages of our worshiped magazines and we were determined to garden like our grandmas.

Whichever "type" of plant person we're talking about, plants can make a great gift for the holiday season. Here are some great plant gifts ideas. I threw in a plant painting in case you or your gift receiver really are plant person type 2 (no judging)- because hey, pictures of plants are pretty too.

Gift Ideas for Mom // Under $60

With Mother's Day coming up this Sunday, I wanted to share some great gift ideas for Mom that you can still get in time. All of the items below are under $60 and can be found locally in Atlanta (and most online, scroll down for links).

1. Perrine's Wine Shop - Handmade Candle - Perrine takes recycled wine bottles and uses 100% soy wax to create these candles. They make a great gift and come in a variety of scents. 

2. Festivity - Earrings - Love these classic earrings, but Festivity also has a lot of great frames, candles, kitchen gear, clothes, accessories and jewelry.

3. Tom's - Crochet Classics - I love this pair of Tom's Classics. They are perfect for summer and really comfortable. You can get them at Nordstroms, Abbadabbas, and the Buckhead Whole Foods.

4. Anthropologie - Scarf - A great scarf for summer. You can get it at the Anthropologie on the Westside, Lenox Mall or Perimeter, but I would recommend calling first to make sure they have it in stock.

5. Jonathan Adler - Gothic Rose iPad Cover - Love this colorful pattern! You can get it at the Jonathan Adler on the Westside.

Most of these products are also available online - 2/3/4/5
