Mother’s Day is just right around the corner! (At least, here in the USA) And each and every year, I struggle with what to get. What exactly do you give someone who means so much more to you than just a bouquet of flowers or a mug? It’s so hard!
A Mother’s Day gift can be handmade or purchased. It could be a simple card with a thoughtful message or a huge splashy gift basket! Whatever it is, it must come from the heart and say “I love you and you are important to me”. Isn’t that the point of ANY gift?
So I’ve rounded up a few of my favorites! These could be for your Mother, Grandmother, Best Friend who is a new mom, whoever you need to treat!
I’m not a particularly crafty girl, so the handmade gifts are limited. HA!
For the Cook or Gardener:
The beautiful The Forest Feast cookbook, notecards or notebooks would make pretty gifts!
For the Beauty Fan:
A pretty set of hand lotions and a sweet card is always thoughtful. Plus, you can never go wrong with a pretty smelling candle! And an eye shadow pallet in neutral colors is a gift that everyone wants, but wouldn’t buy themselves.
And for a fun DIY, here’s How To Make Homemade Bath Salts from DIYInspired.com. Isn’t the packaging neat?
For the New Mom:
Here’s a fun spa product-filled mason jar gift from Classy Clutter. I’d tuck in a “coupon” for free babysitting!
And then the “Isn’t This Fun??” Gift:
A fun multicolored felt Pom Pom necklace!
Sentimental Gifts for Mom or Grandma:
Any photo + picture frame combo is a go to gift for me! This photo collage would be a fun change!
Have a toddler? This handprint card from Day In My Life is so cute! And it would be easy to pop in the mail.

I always struggle with what to get my mom. She always gets the best stuff for me, so the bar is a little high. 🙂 I know she doesn’t even expect a gift for Mother’s Day but of course I have to get her something! 🙂 Thanks for the suggestions!
That’s exactly the problem – our moms are so good at giving amazing gifts! It’s hard to find an amazing gift to give them.
Such a great gift guide!!

Thank you!
I love all of these especially the eye shadow and the pull apart card. Every mom definitely needs to be pampered.
I’m not a crafty person, but I thought the hand card was something Elizabeth and I could accomplish!
Can I have one of each?? Love the spa jars! Please send this to my husband 🙂
HAHA Can do! 😉
Great variety of gifts!! I’m still on the hunt for the perfect gift for my mom. She is such a good gift giver that I always try extra hard to find something special for her. In years past, we’d buy her a rose bush for her garden or something fun to plant in the yard.
I love the idea of an actual plant to plant, not just a bouquet! I think that’s so cool. My mom is a gardener, so that would be right up her alley. Now, if only I knew what plant to buy??
I love it! The “I love you this much” card is PERFECT, both grandmas will love it! Thanks for the ideas!
You’re welcome! We are going to tackle it this week. Fingers crossed it goes ok! I’m not the best crafter/DIYer!
I love all the pink in this collection! These are wonderful Mother’s Day ideas. 🙂
This is such a lovely gift guide. Yay for mommies
Thank you! And yay!
