Give Simple: Perfect Gift Ideas for Any Kind of Mom

Austin, TX (PRWEB) April 13, 2006

Let’s see if we have this straight: Mother’s Day is coming, and you have one of those “special” round peg moms that refuses to go in life’s little square holes. You know what we’re talking about:

The mom that always sings along (loudly!) to the radio – even if she doesn’t know all the words.

The mom that knows the difference between a canapé, a crepe, and just plain crap when she hears it.

The mom who taught you the value of friendship by having great girlfriends she could always count on.

And the list goes on and on. If you’ve got a momma who is one of those “special” round peg types, Give Simple (http://www.GiveSimple.com) has some great gifts for you this Mother’s Day. They are sure to please the one woman in her life that always stood ten feet tall in your eyes.

For the perfect gift idea, just find the mom archetype that most matches your mom’s personality – and voila! It couldn’t be any simpler!

Diva Mama- need we say more? She wants the best because she deserves it, darling. After all, she had you, didn’t she? Tell Mom you think she’s the best with Give Simple’s Ultimate Gold gift package, featuring three of our favorite amazingly-scented Niven Morgan Gold products: the wonderful perfume, the velveting hand cream and the super-indulgent bath foam.

Hostess-with-the-Mostest Mama- whether you invited over your two best girlfriends for the weekend or the whole softball team for pizza and cokes at the last minute, Mom was always able to put everyone at ease and make sure they all had a good time. Now Amy Nebens has written a charming guide sure to be appreciated, “A Gracious Welcome: Etiquette and Ideas for Entertaining Houseguests” that brings together inspiration and advice for planning and hosting a visit that’s relaxing and enjoyable for guest and host alike. From invitations no one could refuse to advice on furnishing a cozy guest bedroom and well-appointed bath, “A Gracious Welcome” is a refreshing approach to sharing the home turf with family and friends.

Party Girl Mama – for the mom that knows to serve shaken, not stirred, we have the perfect gift solution: our Party Girl gift package. Start with “Highballs High Heels: A Girl’s Guide to the Art of Cocktails” by Karen Brooks, Gideon Bosker and Reed Darmon. Mom will be delighted with recipes for swanky highballs (and outstanding non-alcoholic drinks), as well as ideas for cocktail soirees, dinners and summer bashes. Speaking of entertaining, help Mom get the party started with a box of Party Rox from artist Sally Russell. Use these lovely little stones inscribed with names like, “babe” and “hunk” as place settings, and watch the ice break.

Pampered Pet Mom – remember, she “Pampered” you back in the day (ahem!). Pamper Mom now with the soothing scent of lavender from our new Sonoma Lavender line. When heated or chilled, the Lavender Relaxing Eye Pillow, a spa mask made of super-soft material and filled with flaxseed and lavender, offers luxurious, therapeutic relief from stress and headaches. Sonoma’s Lavender Heated Fluffy Slippers have a lavender/flax insert that can be heated in the microwave to provide the ultimate relief for tired, aching feet. Want to make sure that Mom’s relaxing evening is complete? Include Lavender Room/Linen Spray by k. hall designs, made with pure essential French lavender oil. The scent is so calming, Mom will want to keep this spray in her bedroom nightstand for sweet dreams and restful sleep.

Haute Mama – for the new mom-to-be that absolutely refuses to wear anything with those (shudder!) awful Peter Pan colars. Karen Salmansohn’s book, “Hot Mama: How to Have a Babe and Be a Babe,” shares the inside scoop on staying healthy and looking your most fabulous during the nine months of pregnancy. Want everyone to know how haute your new mama really is? Pair this book with our wonderful “Mom to Be” Charming Expressions necklace that lets everyone know the good news, and our ultra-cute photo albums and photo keychains to share pictures of her little bundle of joy!

The Queen Mother – It’s good to be queen. Give Simple’s double-sided Good Mother/Queen charm necklace from Pick Up Sticks creates a fun and playful way to let Mom know she’s still the queen of your heart. One side has a nostalgic photo of a queen with the words “Good Mother,” and the other has word cut-outs that proclaim, “Mom, you are a wonder.” The crowning touch is the attached silver crown charm, all on an 18-inch sterling silver chunky link chain.

Bless My Mama! – for all the blessings she’s given us over the years, show Mom the warmth and joy she’s created in your life. “House Blessings: Prayers, Poems, and Toasts Celebrating Home and Family” by June Cotner is a beautiful book that celebrates the beauty of hearth and home. Cotner has assembled a moving collection of interfaith prayers, poems, and toasts that speak to the experiences we share in turning our houses into our homes. With 112 pieces collected from 38 writers, this little book offers a reading for every occasion. From housewarming to holiday celebration, from planting a garden to raising a family, gems of wisdom and inspirational selections celebrate all our most treasured moments at home.

Sleepytime Mama – finally, it’s payback time for all those sleepless nights! Help Mom get settled in for a good night’s sleep. Give Mom Give Simple’s Ultimate Bed and Breakfast gift package. Our most popular Coral Toile Pine Cone Hill pajamas and super-soft fleecy robe means Mom can experience the ultimate in luxurious comfort. And what better way to make sure that Mom starts the day right than with Stonewall Kitchen’s Chocolate Pancake & Waffle Mix with Raspberry Syrup. Mmmm! This fantastically scrumptious breakfast has been given a rating of “Two Yums Up!”

Stylin’ and Profilin’ Mama – for the mom that looks equally fabulous in blue jeans or “going out” clothes. Give Simple suggests that you give your mama fashionista an artful necklace from jewelry designer and metalsmith Emily Brooks. Brooks’ hip designs are chic, simple, and modern, on sterling silver ball chains. They are stunning without looking like they tried and elegant in their simplicity.

Mama Nouveau – For the mama who’s just joined the Mommy Club. Give Simple suggests that you spoil the new mama in your life sweet with this lovely charm “baby” necklace from Pick Up Sticks. Sentimental but sophisticated, this necklace features a baby footprint on one side and a definition of a baby on the back. It incorporates an antique heart key charm – an understated reference to the love for a baby unlocking a mother’s heart. The charms come on an 18-inch sterling silver chunky link chain.

Chocoholic Mama – For the chocolate lovin’ mama in your life, Give Simple’s gift package, A Chocolate Deal, has everything she needs to get going! We start with our “Chocolate Deck: 50 Luscious Indulgences” by Lori Longbotham – a deck of 50 decadent recipes showcasing the world’s favorite guilty pleasure – with such sinful inclusions as Individual Molten Chocolate Cakes, Black Velvet Mouse, a devilish Chocolate Martini, and more! Mom can showcase her work on a fabulously elegant Playing House Pedestal Platter cake stand from Rosanna in a creamy soft pink, and a super-fun polka dots and stripes apron from Sally Russell. Who says chocolate has to be serious business?

Seriously Fabulous Mama – Show mom that you know just how fabulous she is with Give Simple’s Seriously Simple gift package. We include our top-selling Glow Simple Fresh Cut triple-scented soy blend candle, with its clean and crisp scent that will make Mom’s house smell like a relaxing summer’s day. And to top it off, there’s “Seriously Simple: Easy Recipes for Creative Cooks” by Diane Rossen Worthington. The title says it all: Worthington’s 90 recipes show you how to turn ho-hum dishes into something memorable without spending all day in the kitchen. Perfect for that seriously fabulous woman in your life who wants something seriously fast and seriously delicious, so she can have some serious fun!

World Traveling Mama – Mom was the one who taught you that the biggest journey of your life started with a single step. Now show the woman who showed you the world that you’re all grown up with Give Simple’s Send Mom to Paris gift package. Our gift-boxed Parisian Wallpaper Dessert Plates come in a set of four, and will have Mom saying, “Oui, oui!” to this exquisite stoneware collection. The intricate black and white baroque patterns for this marvelous set take their inspiration from French wallpaper patterns. Pair these plates with our fabulous top-selling Charming Expressions glass charm necklace that says it all: “My Mother, My Friend,” and let Mom know what a special part she plays in your life.

Let’s Get Cookin’ Mama – for the mama who loves to rattle those pots and pans, give The Ultimate Gourmet Package from Give Simple. Our package includes our favorite gourmet items, including a package of our sinfully delicious Barefoot Contessa Outrageous Brownie Mix, our ever-popular Artichoke Lemon Pesto from Bella Cucina, melt-in-your-mouth cookies from Hannah’s Cookies, and Tea Forte delicious silken tea infusers. After all of this comes the kitchen detail – but who said cleaning up had to be drudgery? The sink caddie set by Cucina, with its incredible Repairing-Action Hand Cream and the Purifying Hand Wash is available in your choice of the best-selling Coriander and Olive Tree scent and the ultra-fresh Ginger and Sicilian Lemon. Together, these make cleaning up the kitchen almost a spa experience!

Our Story:

The frilly-edged white platter was, in a word (okay two words), utterly perfect. Kendra Wright, a web developer and “serial entrepreneur,” first spied the Flirt Platter in New Orleans and scooped it up for her kitchen back home. She later e-mailed the manufacturer and learned that they weren’t available online. If she wanted another platter, she’d have to visit Little Rock.

Kendra set off for Arkansas and decided that the pretty white platters were simply too good not to share. With the help of her sister, Tracy Brown, her close friend Karen Beller and her fabulous business partners (plus a whole lot of candle sniffing and lotion testing), Give Simple was born.

It’s the little surprises and delicious moments that truly put a spring in our step. The same goes for gifts. We’ve combed the markets to find goodies that add a serious hit of fun to each and every day. All our products are fresh, contemporary and easy to integrate into your life.

From a divine artichoke pesto that makes your taste buds sing to a cozy robe perfect for curling up with a good book, we only sell gifts that we absolutely love. If we wouldn’t wrap it up for our best friends, it won’t make the cut. Visit GiveSimple.com for more ways to bring order, harmony and new energy into your life. We’re dedicated to making life simpler, one woman at a time.

Give Mom a Gift As Unique As She Is – An Experience That Creates Memories to Last a Lifetime from Viator.Com

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) May 3, 2007

Someone who’s already bestowed the gift of life shouldn’t be honored with a token that will be quickly forgotten – or worse, returned. Viator.com, the leading online resource for researching and purchasing destination activities in 75 countries worldwide has the perfect solution – the gift of experience.

From new ways to experience something familiar, to cooking classes, to special dining and travel getaways, Viator has a selection of more than 5,000 activities in every corner of the world, or for Moms staying close to home – right around the corner. Not sure what will suit her? Viator Gift Certificates, found at http://www.viator.com/gift-certificates, are the perfect gift solution that lets Mom choose what she would like to do, with whom, and when.

The memories Mom will make with the gift of a Viator experience will last a lifetime, never go out of style… and will never be returned!

Below is just a sampling of the experiences available to tickle Mom’s fancy selected by Viator’s team of experts. Viator offers experiences in more than 450 markets around the world, so visit http://www.viator.com to find what’s available in your backyard.

What’s old is new again

Viator.com is thinking outside the flower box with a sampling of ideas to help Mom see something familiar in a whole new light, or, to try something new — whether she’s a world traveler or likes to stay close to home:

    The Private Tour of New York City with a Personal Photographer will allow Mom to see the city that never sleeps through a fresh lens, with expert photographs capturing the memories along the way.
    The “millionaire mile” shopping Mecca may be familiar to Chicago Moms and visiting matriarchs, but the Downtown Chicago Deco walking tour highlights the area’s intricate and unique architectural backdrop.
    Cajun cooking becomes the “Big Easy” for Mom after she takes the New Orleans Cooking Class featuring specialties like gumbo and jambalaya, taught in an old converted molasses warehouse in the French Quarter.
    If Mom’s favorite actor is Jimmy Stewart, Clint Eastwood or Harrison Ford, she will gain a new affinity for City by the Bay landmarks during the San Francisco Movie Tour, exploring sites featured in films like Vertigo, Dirty Harry and Raiders of the Lost Ark.
    The fruits of her new labor will be enjoyed as Mom masters the art of Tuscan cooking and wine pairing during the Tuscan Cooking Course and Dinner in Florence taught in the kitchen of a classic Florentine home by a skilled chef in this special Italian city.

Make the ordinary, extraordinary

A small twist on an every day activity (like eating or shopping) can turn a regular activity into an extraordinary adventure for Mom to enjoy – Mother’s Day or any day.

    Mom can make any day Mother’s Day and take to the seas for a brunch or dinner cruise in cities like Boston, Chicago, London, Maui, and Washington, DC. Special annual Mother’s Day Brunch or Dinner Cruises are also being hosted by the World Yacht in New York City, and the Magistic II or Sydney Showboat in Australia’s Sydney Harbour, but space is limited so book quickly.
    Exchange the car ride to the restaurant around the corner for an executive helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon West Ranch at sunset where Mom will enjoy a candlelit dinner, campfire, and traditional cowboy entertainment.
    The red carpet is rolled out for Mom in Los Angeles during the Warner Bros. Studio Tour and Santa Monica – Private Tour which includes a VIP tour of the working studio back-lot, lunch in Beverly Hills and shopping at the Third Street Promenade.
    If Mom has a taste for Chardonnay and a passion for adventure, the American River Rafting and San Francisco Wine Tour will be the perfect experience to provide both thrills in the rapids and relaxing tasting time on shore.
    Saturday Antique Shopping in Paris Markets with a local expert explores a selection of flea markets and auction houses and includes a tutorial on auction bidding and how to spot an amazing find.

Valentine’s Day Gift Idea: Adventure Retreat in Monet’s Garden

Remsenburg, NY (PRWEB) January 26, 2006

Could there be a more romantic Valentine’s Day gift than a yoga adventure retreat to Monet’s garden in Giverny, France in the Spring? Professional artist Charles Wildbank and yogini Mary McGuire are leading a yoga/painting workshop in the charming Normandy countryside, less than an hour from Paris. This experience will lead you in the footsteps of Monet, Cezanne, Seurat and other great artists. A special Valentine’s Day couples discount could have you winging your way to this yoga adventure retreat in April.

The adventure includes a full-day guided/independent tour of Paris’ finest museums of art with Wildbank and McGuire. Once in the countryside, the comfortable accommodations in a private home in Giverny offer insights into Monet’s everyday life. The retreat itinerary visits historic chateaux in small French country towns and one of the highlights will be painting the serene setting of Monet’s garden and water lily pond.

This is a perfect retreat for lovers, artists and painters looking for inspiration and yogis who have dreamed of painting, but not had the courage. The yoga practice in this workshop will emphasize the union between the artist, her tools and her subject. All yoga practice used at this retreat is appropriate for all levels, from total beginner to advanced and sourced from a variety of styles including Kundalini, Vinyassa, Meditation and Dance. “If yoga means union, then painting is yoga,” says McGuire. “It releases fear of what we are capable of creating”.

Painting is another way the yogi can stretch out from the body via spirit into union with the rest of the world. Just working in the very same gardens and streets that so inspired the masters of the Impressionist era is an experience not to be missed. Both artists who have never practiced yoga before, and serious yogis who have never painted before, will be embarking on an eye-opening journey this spring.

Highlights of the tour include:

Access to Monet’s Gardens and historic Baudy Hotel for painting and photography

Access to historic painting landmarks of the Impressionists within and outside Giverny

Comfortable accommodations in a large rustic home in the heart of Giverny (two participants per room, each room with private bathroom)

Daily buffet breakfast

Traditional French cuisine dinners with wine prepared by the host on 6 nights including farewell banquet (remaining 2 nights are at everyone’s liberty so they can explore the surprises Paris and the Normandy villages have to offer!)

Handpicked self-guided Tour Maps of Paris Museums, cafes and haunts of Monet and the great Impressionists

Instruction in art and yoga integration at all levels by artist Charles Wildbank and yogini Mary McGuire

Wildbank’s exercises on quick meditation and relaxation in between schedules

Canvas, acrylic paints and mediums (bring your brushes, and those who wish to paint in oils may bring their own paints)

Healing and Integrative Body work available

Register before February 10th for the Valentine’s couple’s special

Gift of Travel: Over 5000 Travel Experiences with City Discovery Gift Certificate

City-Discovery.com : tours, activities and things to do

Paris, Rome, Athens, Manila, Toledo, OH, USA (PRWEB) December 10, 2009

Having a hard time looking for the perfect holiday gift? Well, ‘tis the season to be merry, and City Discovery.com, a website that specializes in bookings for sightseeing tours, travel experiences, and ground transportation worldwide, has the perfect solution to all gift-giving woes – the City Discovery Gift Certificate.

Not only does it eliminate the guesswork in gift-giving, it also allows recipients to customize trips according to their own idea of a dream vacation. A gift certificate can be redeemed during the holidays and year round to book a vast range of activities, from sightseeing tours to cruises, photo tours, cooking lessons, spa experiences, shopping trips, and cabaret entertainment.

Gift certificates are valid for a year from date of purchase, giving plenty of time and opportunity for recipients to choose what they want to do or where to go from among all the available options on City-Discovery.com. As all tours and attractions have been strictly screened for quality and service, travelers using the City Discovery Gift Certificate are guaranteed big value for money on any travel experience.

For an overview of the choices available, experts from the site have put together this list.

Dare loved ones to do something different this year. City Discovery features a number of out-of-the-ordinary activities for adventurous travelers like Elephant Riding and Bamboo Rafting in the jungles outside Chiang Mai, Swimming with Dolphins in Los Cabos, and solving the Northern Lights Mystery in Reykjavik. For holidaymakers with a taste for aerial sightseeing, helicopters tours in New York City and over the Grand Canyon in Phoenix; balloon rides over the architectural masterpieces in France, mountain landscape of Switzerland, and ancient ruins of Luxor; and skydiving in Prague and Bogota will surely deliver some unforgettable memories as well.

Urban adventurers also have the benefit of a wide selection of sightseeing activities in top cities, including Athens, Florence, London, Milan, Paris, Rome, Shanghai, and Singapore. In Paris, touring in style in the iconic French car, the Citroën 2CV, is a very popular option. One such activity on City Discovery is the 2CV Convertible Eternal Magic Tours of Paris, where tour participants are chauffeured by knowledgeable and friendly guides through the heart of Paris, inviting a view of the city in a refreshing new light. While photo tours, such as Paris thru the Lens – City of Lights, offer a more specialized coverage of a city’s attractions, they offer photography enthusiasts as well as professional photographers the chance to capture interesting details about the city and improve photography techniques.

Hop on hop off bus tours, segway and walking tours, and bike tours round up the city sightseeing experiences available on the site.

Meanwhile, a trip to the City of Lights will not be complete without going on a Dinner Dance and Show at Moulin Rouge. Participants are treated to an unforgettable evening, complete with a delicious dinner and amazing show – the famous French Cancan and a spellbinding performance of Feerie. This tour and other nightlife activities featuring shows, cabarets and concerts are major bestsellers on City Discovery. Travelers find them ideal for capping off a day of sightseeing, especially as they are sometimes combined with dinner cruises.

But for a truly relaxing experience, travelers can book cruises that are not packaged with shows or sightseeing activities on land. Samples of these activities include the Traditional Dinner Cruise in Amsterdam, featuring a 4 -course gourmet dinner aboard a luxury glass-dome motor launch; Dhow Cruise with Dinner through the modern and traditional sights and sounds of Dubai Creek; Danube Bend Tour, departing from Budapest and featuring three scenic towns along the famous river; and a one-day cruise to the fascinating Greek islands of Aegina, Poros and Hydra.

Stepping up the pampering experience, City Discovery also hosts a lineup of spa tours that lets travelers simply indulge their senses. Bestsellers include soaking in the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa situated in the middle of a large lava field in Iceland; and the Health and Relaxation experience in the mineral-rich Dead Sea.

Finally, City Discovery’s selection of food, wine, and gastronomic activities cater to travelers with a stronger interest in pursuing unique and memorable eating and drinking experiences. Activities like Wanna be Italiano Cooking Class and Wine and Cheese Tasting in Florence can give fascinating insights into the relationship between a city’s cuisine, culture and history.

Why the City Discovery Gift Certificate Makes the Perfect Gift for the Holidays (and all year round)

Gift of Travel, Gift of Choice – With over 5,000 travel activities in 300 destinations across the globe to choose from, recipients have plenty of options. Flexibility and versatility characterize their decision on how, when, and where to use it.

Zero guesswork – Stumped for ideas? The City Discovery Gift Certificate is a perfect solution to the holiday gift-giving dilemma. Just fill out the form, choose the currency and a denomination between 25 and 500, and it’s done. Recipients can choose their dream vacations themselves.

Holiday Rush-proof – Beat the holiday rush and avoid the crowds. With this gift option, there is no need to look for a parking space and wait in long lines while lugging heavy shopping bags in crowded stores. This convenience is especially useful when deciding a gift at the last minute.

Eco-friendly – With no wrapping paper, ribbons, tape and boxes to waste, the City Discovery Gift Certificate can be sent electronically, making it as eco-friendly a gift as possible.

Priceless Travel Memories – From planning to going on that perfect vacation, travelers accumulate a collection of priceless memories. Even the pickiest friends and relatives can enjoy this simple yet meaningful gift.

Samples of these activities include the Traditional Dinner Cruise in Amsterdam, featuring a 4 -course gourmet dinner aboard a luxury glass-dome motor launch; Dhow Cruise with Dinner through the modern and traditional sights and sounds of Dubai Creek; Danube Bend Tour, departing from Budapest and featuring three scenic towns along the famous river; and a one-day cruise to the fascinating Greek islands of Aegina, Poros and Hydra.

Stepping up the pampering experience, City Discovery also hosts a lineup of spa tours that lets travelers simply indulge their senses. Bestsellers include soaking in the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa situated in the middle of a large lava field in Iceland; and the Health and Relaxation experience in the mineral-rich Dead Sea.

Finally, City Discovery’s selection of food, wine, and gastronomic activities cater to travelers with a stronger interest in pursuing unique and memorable eating and drinking experiences. Activities like Wanna be Italiano Cooking Class and Wine and Cheese Tasting in Florence can give fascinating insights into the relationship between a city’s cuisine, culture and history.
