Honor mom by shopping local this Mother’s Day. That way, you can gain brownie points with mom while helping the local economy. Not sure where to start? Let us help with this Lehigh Valley Mother’s Day Shop Local Guide.

For the foodie mom:
Grab curbside pick-up on your way to visit mom from Khanisa’s Pudding in Easton. We are dying to try their One Happy Island concoction! And you can never go wrong with a sweet selection from Josh Early Candies. Our suggestions: dark chocolate buttercreams, toasted coconut marshmallows and the habanero sea salt caramels. Both Khanisa’s and Josh Early offer Sunday hours, if you still need a last minute gift!

For the HGTV mom:
Cottage & Bloom is the perfect spot to shop for a mom who loves to have a beautiful home. You can stop by their Emmaus store, or shop online. We are especially partial to C&B’s grapefruit-scented candle. And if mom has been talking about renovating her kitchen or gutting her bathroom, a Creative Tile gift card is an obvious choice. Our team can help her source the entire design, and she can use the gift card to purchase tile, cabinets, countertops, vanities and vanity tops, and more. Call us at 610-820-9504 to purchase one for an amount of your choice.

For the beauty-lover mom:
If mom can’t resist a new shade of lipstick, check out the new clean, ethical, and sustainable makeup line now offered at FD Market in Emmaus. And we’ve been eyeing up these gorgeous handmade earrings by the Little Worker Bee Co. for quite some time now. They look like the perfect gift for mom!

For the plant-loving mom:
If some gorgeous greens brighten mom’s day, check out Steel City Plant Co.’s potted plants. And if mom’s green thumb isn’t quite so strong, play it safe with some gorgeous paper flower bouquets from For Keeps Flowers. Who wouldn’t love a long-lasting gift that’s so gorgeous?!
