Mother’s Day is fast approaching, and Elizabethtown, KY, is the perfect place to celebrate and give the moms in your life the best day ever. We’ve got fun activities, great places to find gifts and will be your one-stop-shop this year.
Where to shop
If you’re stumped on where to shop for mom, have no fear! Think of me as your personal Elizabethtown-Mother's Day-Fairy Godmother. If you’re shopping for the book lover, check out Birdwhistell Books for new books, used books, Kentucky reads and stories you won’t find just anywhere. Such a fun stop for a gift for mom. Once you’re finished at the bookstore, pop over to New Style Records for all things music! They’ve got records, of course, but they have a wide selection of CDs, cassettes, music players and so many other cool things. Warning – you may walk out of here with something for yourself, too!
Downtown is filled with boutiques like The Bugs Ear, That Cute Little Shop, Ivy Grace and more. If your mom is a trendsetter, these stops will have you covered with the latest fashions and finds. If your mom has more of a taste for unique items, you've got to stop at Denizen. This stop is a certified gem and is filled with so many cool treasures. You'll find plants, cookbooks, bags and things mom never knew she needed! If you want to take your gift one step further, bring mom with you and make it a little shopping day! Such a fun way to explore Elizabethtown and give your mom the best mother’s day ever.
What to do
There is no greater gift than the gift of an experience, and Elizabethtown is filled with them! If you are looking to give mom a fun experience, and something that she will hold onto forever, take her over to Mud Puddle Pottery Co.
Located in the heart of downtown, Mud Puddle is such a cute stop. Here, you can paint different items from plates to mugs to vases, and even novelty holiday items. Stop by, glaze your items and enjoy time with mom! Even if you aren’t a professional artist, it’s the thought that counts, right?
Another spot to slow down and celebrate the women who deserve it all is Water's Edge Winery! Water's Edge is a local gem where you can go and enjoy wine flights, charcuterie boards and good conversations. I mean, what tops a little girl dinner and debrief? This place is so fun and will be the perfect addition to your Mother's Day lineup. This spot has mom's name written all over it!
Treat mom to a little extra pampering this Mother’s Day at Kalon Health Spa, because she deserves to feel as amazing as she is! From relaxing massages to refreshing facials and everything in between, it’s the perfect spot for her to unwind, recharge, and enjoy a little “me time.” This experience will go down in her books as one of the best gifts she’s ever received, guaranteed.
Wrap up Mother’s Day the fun (and delicious) way at JR Neighbors where the burgers are fresh, the food is delicious, and the vibe feels just like home. Skip the stress of cooking and treat mom to a cozy meal from the kind of place where you can slow down, laugh a little louder, and make her feel extra loved.
This year, I hope the mom’s in your life have the most fun & most Elizabethtown Mother’s Day ever! Don’t forget to share your day with us at #touretown. See y’all next time!
