My Top 10 Mother's Day Gift Ideas

by on

One of my favorite people to buy a gift for is my Mom. She doesn't treat herself very often, so when I can find something that makes her feel special, it's one of the best feelings in the world. I've come across a few winners when it comes to gifts for Mom over the years, and thought I'd share some of them with you in case you're looking for just the right gift. Whether your Mom needs to be pampered, loves to decorate, deserves a splurge or is the heart of your home, I hope these gift ideas delight her to no end. But don't wait too long....if you want your gift to arrive in time to give for Mother's Day, you need to order by May 1st.

Soap rockettes are always my go to for a unique, fun and beautiful gift. I especially love this combination of colors

And my second pick is the sweet bird tray they are on...if your Mom loves pretty things, I think she'll love this. It offers so many uses...from a stylish soap dish to an outdoor birdfeeder or shallow planter for sedum and succulents.

I've become really enamored with Philosophy's fresh cream warm cashmere scent....it's just so delicious to be around. This 3 piece set will pamper and spoil your Mom! (tell her to get ready for compliments!)

What would mother's day be without a piece of jewelry? I selected this Honora Ming pearl necklace for it's chic simplicity. It makes the idea of a pearl necklace look really fresh, light and modern....great for spring and summer fashions

My Mom loves to spend time outside in her garden and I think this Martha Stewart Garden bag with tools would be perfect for her! I like that the bag is lightweight and really well thought out with its organization. And Martha's tools are excellent quality (plus this set is a great value over buying these tools separately!). As Martha would say, "It's a good thing."

When pretty meets organization, I'm in. That's what I love about this Vera Bradley makeup and brush travel bag. I'm a navy blue fan, so the new Indigo pattern is my favorite.

Your Mom will feel like the Queen of the castle when she sees this sparkly gem box from Lori Greiner. It not only looks like a treasure fit for royalty, but will hold your favorite pieces of jewelry too. Plus, it has an anti-tarnish lining to keep those metals shining bright

This is another item I love to gift...and I'm crazy for the slip glaze look that Rachael Ray has created for this set! It's billed as a set for oil and vinegar...but I love to use these as a fancy way to store your dish soap too. It makes doing dishes a little more fun...well, maybe? 😊

If you can't be with Mom on Mother's Day, why not send her some homebaked sweetness with these cinnamon rolls from Jimmy the Baker? These are one of my most favorite food items to date from QVC....they're all individually wrapped...and with just a few seconds in the microwave to heat through, they are ooey gooey heaven. You're welcome.

If there is a kitchen item to splurge on for your mom, it's a piece of Le Creuset. For versatility, function and everyday cooking, this 2.75 quart size is perfect. There are many colors to choose from and with the quality of these pieces, it's likely this vessel will be handed down to you some day. Mom's cooking just got better.
