Top Equestrian Mother’s Day Gift Ideas from Rebecca and her friends!

What is Mother’s Day like for Rebecca?

Years ago, my husband, Derek, started a Mother’s Day tradition that we all look forward to each year.  In Chagrin Falls, our growing season is shorter than more Southern locations and the perfect time to plant both annuals and perennials falls right in line with Mother’s Day. I think Derek realized early on in our marriage that the plants were going to be purchased no matter what,  so why not take advantage of an opportunity and make the annual plant purchase my Mother’s Day gift?  The first year he suggested the idea, Derek, Lizzie and I took the horse trailer and filled it up with the season’s plants and planting material.  I was like a kid in a candy shop.  Whatever colors I wanted and needed, I got to pick everything out just so.  It’s been such a fun tradition that every year, we still plan for a special family outing day to fill up on all the beautiful blooms the season has to offer.

I shared this tradition with a few friends recently and as many of my mom friends are also equestrian moms, we wound up with a fun poll going for best Mother's Day gifts for horse lovers, take a look:

  1. Our first selection for any horse lover is Personalized Stationery.  Featuring exclusive Rebecca Ray equestrian art, we all selected the Chelsea Horse with a Pink Peony Pattern that is fresh for Spring and decadent in hot pink and powder blue.  Rebecca Ray stationery is made in America by a family owned company in Alabama and is created out of rich, luxe paper stocks and gets rave reviews wherever it goes.  Everyone feels elevated and special with their own personalized cards and notepads.  What a thoughtful gift.  From $32. 

The Bay Chelsea Horse Personalized Card- also comes in Chestnut Horse and is available in Personalized Notepads as well. 

2. Our second pick is spring bulbs. What mom doesn't enjoy beautiful flowers that show their splendor year after year? We all order bulbs through Breck's. They have the most gorgeous bulbs that come directly from Holland. Their Spring Bulbs are something we all enjoy adding to our gardens each year and is a gift that keeps on giving, year after year.

  1. For the third pick, we’ve unanimously selected a longtime best seller of Rebecca Ray - our stunning Snaffle Bit Cuff Bracelet.  Through the years since we debuted this best seller, we’ve had many colors and renditions but there is a reason this wider cuff with the double stitching detail and the snaffle bit is our all time favorite.  Featured during its debut by Oprah’s O Magazine, it’s been a brand favorite for years.  It takes our master harness makers over 20 steps from start to finish to craft each bridle leather bracelet right here in America. $58

The iconic Snaffle Bit Cuff Bracelet is available in 4 color options and is also available in a narrower version called the Blair Snaffle Bit Bracelet.  
  1. The Bristol Bag is our 4th pick. This small but mighty equestrian style bag is made from soft and supple pebble leather and comes in 3 color selections.  The signature Rebecca Ray equestrian halterplate on the front features our brand horse head.  Detailed top stitching makes this a luxe statement piece.  The narrow, finely burnished bridle leather strap with snaps comes off, so the bag can be carried as a clutch as well.  The bridle leather tassel is icing on the cake and can be added as a fun accessory to other bags or used as a key fob.  This is a terrific crossbody bag and makes a lovely gift for any mom. $129

 

The perfect smaller bag for mom that also doubles as a clutch.

5. For our next pick we all agreed that a new flower book or book on gardening is always a great gift to receive. A few of us want this best selling cut flowers book for Mother's Day: The Floret Farm's Cut Flower Garden: Grow, Harvest, and Arrange Stunning Seasonal Blooms by Erin Benzakein. The stunning images of cut blooms are an inspiration for all of us to cut and arrange flowers in our homes. Besides being outside with the horses, dogs and cats around the farm, I love spending time making arrangements of fresh cut flowers in my home. There is just something calming about making beautiful arrangements and using unique items to place them in.

  1. Finally, for the equestrian loving mom is our Blair Clutch.  Available in 6 trending colors, this clutch has an interior contrasting suede luxe flap inside which makes it so elegant for Kentucky Derby, evenings out or luncheons with friends.  This clutch is plenty big enough for keys, sunglasses and a phone as well as credit cards and other essentials and is SO equestrian chic. There is a Blair Collection of bags and accessories if a clutch isn't the right fit. We can tell you a secret - zucchini green is the number one best selling color and it’s a glorious green.  What can be better for Spring and Summer than green?! $229

Zucchini Green is our best selling Blair Collection color. Its s stunner! 

My mom friends and I hope this little list we came up with inspires you this Mother's Day in selecting the perfect gift for your mom.

Best,

Rebecca
