Thanks World Market for sponsoring our tropical Mother’s Day gift basket idea!  All ideas and opinions are always 100% my own.

With just a few days until Mother’s Day, I wanted to share fun and unique tropical Mother’s Day gift basket idea that I made for my mom.  My mom is incredible and deserves the absolute best, so I put together a wonderful gift basket full of tropical goodness that I just know she’ll love!

The tropical look is very “in” right now, and it’s just PERFECT for my adventurous mom.

She just got back from a trip to tropical Costa Rica a couple of weeks ago, where she spent a week with my dad zip lining through the jungle, traversing bridges with hungry crocodiles just waiting for a tasty morsel underneath her, and photographing red-eyed tree frogs with her giant zoom lens.

I told you she was a rock star!

A rock star mom deserves a rock star gift, so I went shopping at my local World Market store for some tropical treats for my mom.

How to make a tropical Mother's Day gift basket

Step 1.  Put the palm leaf place mat inside the wood bowl.  This will be the base for our tropical Mother’s Day gift basket and will hold all of mom’s tropical goodies!  Place the tropical dish towel on top of the leaf at an angle.

Step 2.  Next we add the bigger, heavier items.  The body butter fit well on the bottom, with the two candles on top on either side, then hand soap balanced on top of the candles.
