The Best Mother's Day Gifts in 2020
While the world continues to battle the Coronavirus pandemic, one the the best things we can do to maintain some sense of normalcy is to maintain traditions. While many of us aren’t able to have visitors due to risk, Mother’s Day can offer an opportunity to connect in these difficult times and remind them of your love no matter where you are. Whether it’s the woman that raised you or the woman you’re raising kids with, we’ve done much of the hard work for you, in finding great gifts for nearly every type of mom out there.
10. Crown and Paw
If mom appreciates art as much as she loves her pets, then this year turn a favorite picture of her pet into a one-of-a-kind renaissance masterpiece. These portraits are a unique way for pet owners to express their love, adoration, and even their obsessiveness, with their beloved pets, and it’s paws and claws above the competition. Crown and Paw curates authentic 19th century portraits and rare Renaissance era oil paintings and digitally combines them with pet photos, creating an incredibly lifelike work of art. Simply choose a costume, upload a photo and a talented team of artists will do the rest to capture the individual characteristics and facial features of her pet to express their unique personality.
9. The Super Crush Visor
The Super Crush Visor is the crushable, squishable, foldable lightweight visor – a combo of Headsweats’ two most popular products. This visor is perfect for the mom that loves to let her natural hair breathe when she’s on the go because of the ventilating hex mesh sides, and moisture wicking terry sweatband. The elastic band back also provides a custom fit without velcro. With a variety of designs, this affordable hat is the indestructible piece of sun and sweat protection that mom needs!
8. Fix Vodka
For the health-conscious drinker, FIX Vodka offers a new choice of a high pH, alkaline spirit. Launched in 2019, FIX Vodka is the first high-alkaline vodka to be made in the United States.

FIX Vodka is Texas-made down in Austin, hand-bottled, naturally gluten-free, vegan and most importantly it’s delicious. We could all use a drink right about now, so make it a great one.
