You down with oWp?
Your mother isn't difficult. She's particular.
In other words, she's rarely met a gift she didn't love...to return. Hence you're not ready for Sunday.
Luckily, we found this sure-to-please (and easy last-minute) Mother's Day present: "wearable" candles from Objects With Purpose (that's "oWp" to you). Yep, they're wax Mom can wear. Here's how:
1. When cool, the concoction becomes a solid perfume. Just drag a finger along the surface and dab away! We recommend the new Gifted in Gold scent with white tea, fig & tobacco.
2. When lit, the organic, coconut-derived candle turns into a super emollient body butter. Just blow out the flame and the wax is now moisturizer.
3. Bonus: A special card instructs users to choose a purpose for the day, so Mom can make a wish as she lights the wick.
Hand-poured in Culver City by Ianthe Kabakov, the magical candles even come wrapped in hand-stamped muslin sacks with French wire ribbon. You can plan a local pickup: email Kabokov here.
That's one sure fire way to please your mother.
