I would like to get my Mother something this year that is just as special for her as it is good for our Mother Earth too!

Please share with me and our Lime.com community what gifts you feel would be a mistake if I were to buy them and ones that both "Moms" would be proud of.

Here is an example of a "Mistake" and "Green Success" that I found to help get us started:

Mistake: Buying a Digital Photo Frame
Reason: Digital Photo Frames use power of only a few dollars per year but that can equate to thousands of kilowatts wasted if every home was to own one.  There is no greener way to go than the "old fashioned" personalized photo frame.

Success: An Eco-Friendly Bouquet
Reason: Toxic pesticides and unfair-trade can run rampant with some sources for fresh cut flowers.  Why not go pick a bouquet for Mom in a field locally or if you are too far from flowers, try an Organic [0] Bouquet supplier.  The company below even will donate a portion of the proceeds of select bouquets to charities such as The Nature Conservatory or Earth Share.
