- Moms tend to treasure memories over objects.
- Collect contributions from the whole family for maximum impact.
- A QR code in the flowers links the traditional gift to a lasting one.
Ask most moms what they want for Mother's Day and they'll say 'nothing'. What they mean is: nothing that ends up in a drawer. Memories are different.
