I will admit, Mother’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. Our mothers do so much for us from the time we are born to the time we are separated by death. They raise us, teach us, nurture us as children and when we become adults, they continue to be a constant source of advice and comfort. They’re pretty much the best. Which is why going all out for Mother’s Day seems more than appropriate. For those who are hosting your own Mother’s Day meal, take a look at these 12 gorgeous tablescapes that will inspire you to pull all the stops on your celebration.
