Mother’s Day Gifts? I thought you’ll never ask! I must confess that shopping for mom isn’t always easy. I mean, I know we can all relate to this scenario:
Mom: I don’t want anything for Mother’s Day. Mom on Mother’s Day: Why didn’t you get me anything??!?!
Can you promise me that you’ll get your mom a Mother’s Day gift? Like a really good one? I am the queen (I’m putting my crown on now) of gift giving, and I’ve rounded up the perfect Mother’s Day gifts.
I should say that these gifts are just my personal opinion. I have no real credentials, aside from the obvious fact that I’m a daughter 🙂
Mother’s Day Gifts
Best Mothers Day Gifts
1. Dyson Hair Dryer
If your mom is complaining that her hair does all sorts of things, the Dyson Hair Dryer will be the perfect Mother’s Day Gift.
Okay, I know you may think that your banking account is laughing at you right now, but I like the idea of splitting the cost of this beauty with your siblings or dad.
I can 100% confirm that the purchase will be worth every penny because it will give your mom the hair of her dreams.
2. Laneige Lip Mask
Do you feel like bougie is your mom’s whole personality? If you answered “yes,” I’m pretty sure your mom’s heart might just skip a beat if you gifted her The Laneige Lip Mask.
The Laneige Lip Mask will quickly become one of your mom’s favorite products because it’s really great at repairing dry lips. Every woman in your life, including you, should own it.
3. Towel Warmer
A towel warmer is something that your mom doesn’t really need, but like she also really needs it. I really think this is the perfect gift because your mom will basically feel like she’s living in a hotel.
All she has to do is simply turn the towel warmer on before getting into the shower and then she’ll come out to a towel that has that fresh out of the dryer feeling.
There seriously nothing better than getting out of the shower to a nice, hot towel. If your mom has pups, they’ll love the feeling of a hot towel too. 🙂
4. Back Massager
Does your mom suffer from back pain like my mom? A back massager seriously feels so good, and it’s perfect if your mom has back pain or soreness.
Mark my words: When you give your mom a back massager, her life will forever be changed.
5. The Comfy
For moms who love cozy things, The Comfy is something she’ll be living in, and it gives me “mom who has had a very long day” vibes.
Available in so many cute styles and colors, your mom will be cozier than ever in this trendy wearable blanket.
6. Travel Jewelry Case
A mini travel jewelry case is a such a thoughtful gift for mom. I love that you can personalized this gift with her name or monogram.
7. Mini Cocotte
Did no one tell you that they have mini cocottes? If your mom is like my mom, she will absolutely love a mini cocotte.
I highly recommend this gift if you’re ballin’ on a budget. You can get one or two of these and a mini cocotte cookbook.
What do you guys think? Will you be getting this for your mom?
Good Mothers Day Gifts
8. Gel Nail Kit
I know your mom always wants her nails to look pretty, so a gel nail kit, of course!
I am a big fan of pairing items together. Since the gel nail kit already comes with nail polish, I like the idea of pairing it with hand cream.
Get yourself this gift too for a mother and daughter at home mani!
9. AirPods
Next in the Mother’s Day gift guide lineup: AirPods. I don’t even think I need to talk about this one because virtually everyone has them but your mom, obvi!
I’m also really into the AirPods cases for moms because your girl is on a budget!
10. Skincare Set
If you love TikTok and skincare, you already know that skincare sets are going to be amazing gifts for moms.
I am obsessed with the idea of giving skincare sets as gifts because your mom can try some great products, and you won’t go broke.
Even if your mom already has a skincare line that she loves, you can always get a skincare set with her favorite brand’s full line.
11. Makeup Brushes
Makeup brushes are obviously the perfect gift for moms who love makeup because she probably forgets to buy them for herself.
12. Serving Tray
One of my favorite gifts for mom is a serving tray. I highly recommend gifting a serving tray because it makes self care really easy.
She can use it to throw her own hot chocolate bar, cheese board, or cocktail party. She can also take the serving tray anywhere.

13. Mini Waffle Maker
I can guarantee that your mom has seen the cute mini waffle makers everywhere, and she probably wanted a waffle maker yesterday.
Mini waffle makers are truly magical because not only can they make scrumptious waffles, they can also make cinnamon rolls, eggs, and hash browns. Good eats coming right up!
14. Mug
I know a mug is like super basic, but I feel like basic is okay if you’re on a budget.
A fabulous way to spruce things up is to place some fun goodies inside the mug. I’m thinking candy, gift card, nail polishes, or lip gloss.
15. Makeup Eraser
A makeup eraser would make a great gift or addition to a gift. If you give your mom a makeup eraser for Mother’s Day, your mom will never have to buy one again in her life (well for three to five years).
I love gifting makeup erasers because they’re the easiest way to remove makeup. Seriously! All your mom need is water.
Did I mention that they’re machine washable and reusable? They are truly the perfect sustainable gift!

16. Cheese Subscription
For your cheese-lovin’ mom, I suggest giving her a cheese subscription. A cheese subscription will allow your mom to create the perfect cheese plate right at home.
You will literally put a big smile on your mom’s face because she’ll get to try so many fancy cheeses. The best thing of all: Your mom will think of you whenever she eats them 🙂
Healthy Mother's Day Gifts
17. Water Bottle
Staying hydrated. Does your mom struggle with it? I think that a glass water bottle with straw is absolutely gorgeous, and it will encourage your mom to drink more water.
A glass water bottle with straw is truly a gift that you’ll want to buy for yourself too. I’m speaking from experience.
18. Electric Kettle
Holy crap, why is no one talking about an electric kettle? An electric kettle is such a cool kitchen gadget, and our tea-lovin’ moms will definitely be obsessed.

19. Cocktail Maker Kit
Did someone say cocktail maker kit for mom?
If your mom is not a regular mom but a really fun mom, and you can always catch her making cocktails all year-round, gifting a cocktail maker kit is pretty much a no brainer.
A cocktail maker is definitely one great way to help your mom get through the year. Ask nicely if she’ll share a few drinks!
20. Air Fryer
An air fryer is something that your mom has never needed more in her life. I mean, she’s probably heard about it, and she’s probably begging herself not to get one.
Girl, at this point, you might as well buy your mom an air fryer because she’ll love that it’s a really simple way to make some serious good eats.
Unique Mother Day Gifts
21. Diamond Painting Kits
A diamond painting kit is a great gift if your mom feels stressed or overworked. If you don’t know already, diamond painting is a relaxing hobby similar to cross stitch and paint by numbers.
There’s something so simple yet so satisfying about making beautiful artwork that can be framed and hung somewhere in the house.
A diamond painting kit will actually be a fun activity for you guys to do together <3 You’ll be surprised by how much your mom your mom loves this gift.
22. Indoor Herb Garden Kit
Okay, indoor herb garden kits are seriously so fun, and they just might be the key to your mom’s heart.
The kit comes with everything your mom needs to grow herbs, and she’ll love cooking at home with fresh ingredients. It’s really about the simple things in life, you know?

23. Tote Bag
Let’s be real: You knew that a tote bag would make its way into this gift guide for moms.
A tote bag is seriously a must for any mom. I love how it’s such a practical gift that she’ll basically use every day. A tote bag that does it all are truly the best, and you can even personalize it with her name or monogram.

24. Family Photo Shoot
A family photo shoot is truly the best gift ever, and your mom is going to love it!
After the photo shoot, you can frame the pics or place them in cute photo albums. Ugh literally crying rn. She will never be over it.
25. Hotel Package
Okay, who wouldn’t want this? If genie granted every mom one wish on Mother’s Day, I’m sure many moms would request a hotel room all.by.herself.
A hotel package with room service, wine, massage, and a hot tub, is the ultimate splurge for any mom, but it’s honestly a vibe that many moms need!
You may just want to give her a week of that. She’ll love it!
25. Flower Arrangement Class
I’m sorry, but a flower arrangement class is such a unique and thoughtful Mother’s Day gift. During the class, you and your mom will learn all about creating a beautiful floral arrangement like a pro.
27. Wine Tastings
Okay, stop scrolling if your mom loves wine. I feel like wine tasting is such a thoughtful gift for the moms who have everything.
I just know that you want this for yourself too, so why not get wine tasting for two? It will honestly be the best pick me up after a long week, and you guys will love how the nap after the wine tasting hits different 🙂
Pro Tip: For experience gifts, I love creating a flyer for it on canva.com.
28. Charitable Donation
I’m actually really crazy excited about this gift idea because I think very few moms would be upset about a gift that gives back to charity.
The simplest way to do this is make a donation in your mom’s name to an organization that she loves like the local library, the Alzheimer's Association, The SPCA, or The American Cancer Society. There are literally so many organizations to choose from.
Mother’s Day Gift Diy
29. Memorable Gift
I love homemade gifts so much because they’re really meaningful. I recently saw this sweet mother’s day gift diy on social media, and I just had to share.
Here’s what you need to do: Send sentimental questions about your mom to family members and then put the questions and answers into a pretty document on Canva. You should put your answers to these questions into the document too 🙂 Lastly, add some cute family pics, and then you’ve got the perfect Mother’s Day gift.
A few questions are “How do you know mom loves you?” “What adjective would you use to describe mom?” “What’s one lesson that mom has taught you?”
30. Coupon Book
Do you remember when we were kids and we used to make those cute coupon books? I’m bringing coupon books back because they’re great gifts if you don’t have a lot of money and want to give a more meaningful gift.
I’m not going to brag, I’m not going to brag, but I’ve given my mom a coupon book basically every Mother’s Day. I honestly feel like it’s the right gift because her love language is acts of service.
Coupon books don’t have to be the prettiest, but they will be a labor of love that your mom will enjoy.

31. Target Gift Card
When in doubt, you and I both know that you really can’t go wrong with a target gift card. I think it may just be the absolute best thing you can gift your mom because she can get whatever she wants.
