beautiful books for mother’s day

Mother’s Day is less than two weeks away and for the first time in what seriously feels like forever, I’ve already bought, wrapped and shipped my own momma’s gifts out way ahead of time! For any birthday or holiday, beautiful coffee table books are always at the top of my list of gifts to give (and get, for that matter!) and right now, there is a bevy of beautiful books out that would make for a gorgeous gift to celebrate your mother (or to add to your own personal collection!)  Here are a few lovely tomes, from gardening, monogramming and cooking to interior design, entertaining and flower arranging, that any momma would love:

At Home in the Garden / Bunny Williams On Garden Style / A Boat, A Whale and a Walrus / Monograms for the Home / Linens: For Every Room and Occasion / The Book of Palms /  Pret-a-Party:Great Ideas for Good Times and Creative Entertaining / The Southerner’s Cookbook /  Charlotte Moss: Garden Inspirations / The Romance of Flowers / Mrs. Howard Room By Room /

What are some of your favorite books to give or to get??
