It’s that time again when we celebrate marvelous moms everywhere. Herewith, a few ideas to help you spoil that special lady in your life:

Even if she wore them the first time around, clogs fall into the redo trend category so your fashionista mom will love a pair of Swedish Hasbeens (from $275). The sandal versions are perfect for warmer days ahead, and if you’re looking to spend a little less, pick up a pair from the Swedish Hasbeens for H&M collection. At Gravity Pope, 524 17th Ave. SW, Calgary, 403-209-0961, www.gravitypope.com and H&M, www.hm.com

Mom would love any piece by Calgary jewellery designer Gillian Hillerud but for the wow factor, we recommend one of Hillerud’s paper inlay necklaces. Each intricate creation is one-of-a-kind, just like mom, aahhh. Necklaces from $148 at Influx Jewellery Gallery, 100 Seventh Ave. SW, Calgary, 403-266-7527, www.influxgallery.com

Scarves are staples but a handmade, beautifully dyed one by Toronto label Tilo is unlike any of the ones mom already owns. A favourite among editors and celebs (Mila Kunis wore one in Black Swan), the linen scarves come in vibrant colours or more subtle palettes and are light enough for cool summer nights. From $110 at Rubaiyat, 722 17th Ave. SW, Calgary, 403-228-7192, www.rubaiyatcalgary.com

There are candles, and then there are Jo Malone candles. The newest scent, Vanilla and Anise, promises to transport mom to the floral landscape of Madagascar and if it doesn’t, at least it will still make her living room smell oh-so-lovely for up to 45 hours. $75 at Holt Renfrew, 510 Eight Ave. SW, Calgary, 403-269-7341, www.holtrenfrew.com

Framed photos are so 2009. Instead, immortalize your childhood mug on canvas. The online DIY project is simple: choose a layout, upload a photo and finally, pick a canvas size and voila, your very own work of art. From $30 without frame; $49 with frame, www.canvaspop.com
