Mother's Day (FMIL gift???)

Okay, so Mother's Day is coming in less than a month and I am wondering what to get/do for FMIL. I mean, this isnt the first Mother's Day I've known her and I've done flowers before.

But I feel this mothers day is special...like next year i will be her official daughter-in-law!!

Any ideas? Anyone doing anything?

TIA!!

i always struggle with this-fmil is impossible to shop for bc she never wants anything..

one year i got her a sterling silver locket, and i put a pic of fh and fsil in it--she wears it all the time

This is FH's responsibility. He takes care of all gifts for his family, and I take care of the ones for mine.

We've been doing combined gifts for a few years now, so leaving it up to him is much easier for me

I do all the gift shopping in the relationship. How about something she will use like a purse or something. I bought FMIL a Coach swing pack last year and it is her favorite bag to take shopping. She uses it all the time. I try to avoid things that she isnt going to use because i will never see them.

Last year for Mother's Day, FH and I got our moms 'Mother of the Bride' and 'Mother of the Groom' tshirts.

Anything that says 'Mother of the Groom' is cute (shirt, tote bag, etc).

Don't get along with FMIL, so nothing for her....

What about a massage gift certificate?
