need 50th birthday gift ideas

My step-mom is turning 50 in March.  I'd like to get her something special because we have always been close.  My bio-mom and I are not close, so she's really who I consider my mom.

So what would you get for your mother for her 50th birthday?  I'd say no more than $200 unless it's awesome.  TIA

Re: need 50th birthday gift ideas

  • Maybe you could get her something with your birthstone in it, or something you can have engraved.

  • Could you throw her a surprise party?  Even if it's just a few family member and close friends, that would be special. 

    I would probably pay for a photo session with a photographer to have a family photo made of all of you together.  Get her a gift certificate to a nice frame shop, tell her you'll pay for a certain size photo and she can go get it framed.  I would LOVE something like that, and so would my mom, grandma, etc.

  • What about getting her an "experience" to create memories with you? Maybe take a cooking or wine tasting class together, or go on a weekend trip to a state park. I would love to take my parents for a hot air balloon ride, though that would break your $200 budget

  • Oh, keep in mind she lives in STL.  The ideas so far are great!
