THE WEEKLY MEMO

April 16th — April 22nd

Teacher Appreciation Day — Get inspired 🍎✏️✨ — Teacher’s appreciation day is about 20 days away. Start to think about the way you want to show your appreciation. The 5 Best Teacher Gifts That They Will Actually Want

Cinco De Mayo — Host a Chic Cocktail Hour at Home — If you’re in the mood to host a little Cinco de Mayo fiesta this year, now is the time to create the invitation + send it to your guests. Let them know the location, the hours if they can bring anything, and when you want their rsvp by! 

Mother’s Day — Get Inspired 💓 — LOVE YOU, MOM! With a little over three weeks to go until Mother’s Day, it’s time to start thinking about how you’ll celebrate Mom. Whether you’re shopping for your mom, wife, grandmother, a mom-to-be, or your fellow mom friends, this shopping list has something for all the moms in your life. 16 Great Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Mother’s Day — Make The Day Special — Gentleman, start planning (with her input!) a special day! Maybe a brunch resys at a great new (or her favorite) restaurant, booking her appointment at the spa, or snag Broadway tickets to a show. Or she might “just” want to enjoy the day without kids and no agenda!

Find the Fun — Go Berry Picking 🍓 — Reach out to friends + family to invite them to strawberry picking. Ask them for available weekends and get a date on the books so you have the activity to look forward to!

Home — Schedule spring gutter cleaning & (reminder) book window cleaning — Make sure your gutters are clean so they can channel water away from your home’s foundation and basement.

Home — Almost time to refresh your front porch planters — it’s almost time to refresh your front porch pots. Start thinking and getting inspiration for what you want to do this season. If you’re open (like we are!) to the faux route, how perfect are these and these? They are so pretty!

Gifting — 🎉 Buy May presents + cards  — It’s time for the monthly gifting haul! Look through your birthday calendar to see who has a birthday in May. Then, buy all their cards + presents at once, so it’s as easy as wrapping or popping it in the mail a week before their special day!

Graduation — Book dinner(s) + Buy New Outfits —Discuss your plans and decide what meals you will eat out. Since graduation weekends are super busy, make all the reservations you can now! Also, while you are thinking about graduation weekend – sketch out what you will need in terms of outfits. If you need something specific or want new things to feel more confident, now is the time to order them to ensure you get what you want!
