Birthdays are always a good time to remind mom that you appreciate all she's done for you. She spent years pretending she was interested in all of the fads you bought into when you were growing up. While you're still busy trying to keep up with the latest things, mom is probably not. Sure, you like to drink Red Bull while flipping through photos on your ipad but don't make the mistake of thinking your mom wants to spend her time the same way. Chances are a cup of hot tea is her Red Bull and stationery is her email - so don't try to change her, just give her what she wants.

Here is an example of a custom Fusebox that might be perfect for your mom. We start off with a gift tin of Harney & Sons tea. Harney & Sons is the preferred tea of the Queen of England. It gained popularity here in the United States after it was used for the high tea service at the Ritz Carlton. This is not your average tea bag by any stretch, it's a luxurious silken sachet of hand picked tea leaves and herbs that will leave her wanting more. To go along with the gourmet tea we'll add a jar of delicious and Natural Creamed Honey,
and then let's give her a designer mug to put it in.

Since mom will need something to do while she's enjoying her tea we'll give her a copy of "The Little Black Book Of Tea" to thumb through while she's enjoying her brew. Of course this combination may not be exactly right for your mom, but we offer thousands of possible gift combinations so you can create the perfect gift for your mom. Just remember, if your perfect mom gift has multiple USB inputs, you might want to keep looking.

A Thoughtful Gift For Mom

 

Do you like surprises? We sure do, and we've found that most moms share our love of the unexpected. Maybe your mom just paid off your student loans and you need to thank her, or maybe you just got off the phone with her and got the idea that you should do something extra special for her for no reason at all. No matter the occasion here is a gorgeous gift that we guarantee mom will never forget.

When you choose to "fuse" together three gifts your enclosure card is placed in the top left gift box with the instruction "Open this box first" - so the first gift mom opens is your heartfelt message to her.

The last gift box contains a stunning smokey quartz brooch. This is a great example of how you can mix a few unrelated gifts instead of creating a theme to come up with the perfect gift for your mom.
