(cool) progeny holiday 2010 gift guide: spoil the busy (but trendy) mom in your life

Our week of gift guides continues with 10 ways to spoil the mom-on-the-go in your life... courtesy of Julie Dorkan, owner and buyer for Teresa B Gift and Home in Cockeysville! Julie shares items that are sure to make the special mommy in your life say 'oohhhhhh ahhhhhh.' (And not in the all too familiar toddler speak).

1. Chamilia Bracelet The best thing about this bracelet? Your design your bracelet according to your life - - or the life of the one you're gifting it to! Its the gift that continues to give. 14k and sterling silver beads, Swarovski crystals and genuine watch beads... this bracelet will be the envy of all.

2. Sonoma Lavender Robes These fashionable robes are made of luxurious, soft super-plush microfiber. Cold wash/fluff dry (hallelujah!). The fabulous mid-calf length fits most. They come packaged in an organza gift bag with an embroidered lavender sachet. Can you feel the bliss?

3. Barefoot Dreams Blanket You have never been so warm as to be under this cozy chic bamboo blanket. Ultra soft and cuddly, the only thing missing is your glass of wine and a fire!

4. Barefoot Contessa Cookbook Ina does it again! Her new Book, "How Easy Is it" allows even the novice cook to create a masterpiece. One of our favs!

5. Mad Bags From Day to night, this bag will carry you through! Satin and Bamboo - its the "it" bag.

6. Beatrize Ball AMAZING serveware in recycled Aluminum, these pieces go from freezer to oven to table. Maintenance free means you never have to polish. Your table will never look prettier!

7. John Wind Bracelet I bet you never thought that you would be wearing a pearlized cotton ball pearl around your wrist. These 24kt antique gold plate over brass initial bracelets (with cotton ball!) will make all women gleam! Sold in Silver and Gold. This (we're talking to you dad or hubs), is a must have for your favorite gal.

8. Flying Wish Paper Think of a special wish… your fondest dream, your deepest desire, your ambitions, concerns or burdens—and write it down on the Flying Wish Paper®. Shape your paper into a tube and place it on the Wish Platform®. Light the top edge of the tube and watch it burn down in a small, beautiful flame. At the last moment your wish magically lifts off the platform and rises to the heavens!

9. Crab Hands Salad Tossers Enjoy serving your salad with these adorable crab hands. They will be the talk of your dinner! These are available in Christmas patterns, too.

10. John Medeiros Jewelry Almost nothing else compares to this gorgeous jewelry line of sterling and rhodium. This necklace and all his pieces are showstoppers. Teresa B has a HUGE selection. Each piece comes with a lifetime guarantee and is made in the USA.
