Ranging from as early as Valentine’s Day to the 4th of July, spring and summer not only contain seven notable holidays, but also lots of gift-and-card-giving occasions. Mother’s Day is now the 2nd biggest gift-giving holiday, after Christmas. Father’s Day is gaining ground with expenditures on dads estimated to hit roughly $14.3 billion this year (we’re betting on lots of gifts in 2017 for Dad’s home bar). And even St. Patrick’s Day is demanding a new generation of decor with fresher greens, as well as updated prints and icons.
