DIY Gifts
Handmade gifts really show how much you love the person you are giving the gift to. Some options that would be great for Mother’s Day could be a scrapbook with meaningful pictures and memories, a coupon book with things like “Breakfast in Bed” or “Movie Night”, or handmade jewelry such as a necklace or bracelet with her favorite colors.
Personalized gifts
These gifts reflect how much you know of your mom. These should reflect your mom’s personality, interests, and hobbies. Some gifts could include, custom mugs with a nice message, engraved jewelry with initials, a date, a special message, or a special photo frame with a beloved picture of the two of you.
Subscriptions or experiences
If your mom enjoys activities such as reading, listening to music, or learning new things, experience or subscription presents would be the right thing for her. Options for subscriptions are for magazines, books, or streaming services. For an experience based gift, coupons for classes such as cooking, yoga, painting, or pottery could be the right thing if she loves trying new things.
Flowers
Flowers are a classic Mother’s Day gift, but there are many ways to spice it up. Going with the typical choice of a bouquet can’t hurt, especially if your mom loves flowers. Pick out a fresh bouquet with her favorite flowers, and for something special, buy a nice vase to display them. For the moms who enjoy gardening, gifts of potted plants or seeds would be perfect. Potted plants last longer, and gifting seeds creates opportunities for growing vegetables and herbs rather than just flowers. For flowers that will last forever, LEGO flowers could be the right choice. There are many sets to choose from, so find her favorite flowers and give her something she can treasure forever!
Other gifts
For those still unsure about what to get, if ideas from previous sections didn’t spark any inspiration, there are still a few more classic options. A gift card to her favorite restaurant or store will give her the chance to buy exactly what she wants, and you could even surprise her with tickets for concerts, festivals, or weekend trips. If all else fails, the option of giving money is always there. Gifting a card with a heartfelt message with some cash is a classic.
