HUTCHINSON, Kan. — For those that haven't gotten their mom a Mother's Day gift yet, there is still time. Mitzi Alexander, owner of Absolutely Flowers and Absolutely Home, said both stores have some great ideas for last minute Mother's Day gifts.
"Of course fresh flowers because we are all about flowers," Alexander said. "Beautiful hydrangea, and roses and Gerber daisies. We can make up an arrangement or there's things in the front cooler."
Alexander also said peonies and tulips seem to be a popular pick among customers for Mother's Day.
At Absolutely Home, Alexander mentioned several personal and at home fragrance lines available for purchase.
"It's a great time to get some home fragrance," Alexander said. "We have several lines of fragrances or candles. We have the Tyler line which our favorite thing in that line is the glamour wash. So laundry is no fun for mom but this glamour wash will make laundry fun and when it's all over with, it smells amazing."
A selection of homemade fudge is also available at the store and Alexander said fudge can be a great add on to any arrangement for mom.
"Mom loves chocolate so we have chewy praline, snickers, chocolate peanut butter, chocolate amaretto, so if mom's got a sweet tooth fudge is always a good thing to add on," Alexander said.
Alexander also said for moms that like to cook, cookbooks at Absolutely Home are a nice gift idea and home decor as well.
Absolutely Flowers is located at 1328 N. Main and Absolutely Home is located right next door at 15. E. 14th Ave. Absolutely Flowers is open until 2 p.m. on Saturday and Absolutely Home is open until 3 p.m. on Saturday.
