Mother’s Day Gifts for the Modern Bookworm

The Lodgepole Mug


When this modern mom has time to herself (like she might on Mother’s Day), she likes to curl up with her favorite book and spend a few hours diving into fictional faraway places or historical biographies. What levels up a cozy corner with a comfy blanket and a book in hand? A cup of her favorite coffee or tea. Serve it up in The Lodgepole Mug, a coffee mug meant for those with high expectations. The mug features double-wall vacuum sealed technology that keeps your hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for up to three times as long as a typical mug. It’s 14oz capacity means you can fit a lot of coffee or tea in it - and it’ll stay hot or cold for hours.  If your wife or mother needs a few hours of escape, this mug ensures she doesn’t need a fill up.

The Colorado Coastline Set 

 Speaking of leveling up mom’s coffee corner or reading nook (and stepping up your gift-giving game), don’t gift the Lodgepole mug without also gifting The Colorado Coastline set. Now, she’ll have a place to set her mug - and you’ll get bonus points for protecting the surfaces in your home. Now that’s how you make a mom feel special! This set of coasters includes four “thirsty ceramic” coasters with cork-lined bottoms featuring iconic Colorado scenes and the Colorado “C.” The best part? These coasters come in a gift box, making your Mother’s Day gift wrapping that much easier.
