Can you believe we are nearing Mother's Day?! This year, it is on Sunday, May 11th, so you have a little less than two weeks to prepare!
I love my mom so much; she deserves the world. All moms do!! She is truly the best, and I do not take one day with her for granted. She is so supportive, loving, and a wonderful person. My biggest hope is that she always knows how appreciated she is. One of the best things in the world you can give to anyone is your appreciation. Let it be known and celebrated!
Experiences are also so special, and a great option if the recipient is picky or already has too much 'stuff'. I listed quite a few ideas at the end of this post! Time together with your mom is truly the best gift you can give each other!
However, I am a gift giver, and there is nothing better than giving gifts to my mom! This gift guide is filled with so many of my favorite things, which I have also gifted to her! When shopping for my mom, I particularly like to treat her to little luxuries that she may not buy for herself.
If you want recommendations straight from my mom, she did a great gift guide for the holidays that you can find, here!
Cookbook// I love following Meredith; she is coming out with a cookbook! I pre-ordered it and can't wait to check it out. This is an excellent gift for anyone who loves to be in the kitchen.
Custom Dog Pouch// My mom and I have these custom dog pouches, which are the cutest. My code is SYDNEY15 for $15 off. I put all of my necessities in this pouch and then just move it from bag to bag. It's big enough to fit the things I need, but small enough to fit inside most of my handbag.
Microcurrent Device// I don't go a single week without using this. I think it would be great for a new mom who isn't getting great sleep. This helps depuff and make you look more awake. It boosts my confidence and makes me feel good. I swear by this and have a blog post review here.
Mini Diamond Tennis Bracelet// I have this and never take it off. I remove almost all of my jewelry daily to shower, sleep, clean, workout, etc. This is one of the few items I keep on 24/7. You can barely feel it when wearing it, and it's dainty and beautiful. Dirty jewelry drives me crazy, and wearing something 24/7 means it will get dirty. I keep a toothbrush in the shower and clean the bracelet while it's on my wrist each time I shower. This routine works so well!
Red Light Mask// This is another face device that I absolutely love. It definitely keeps my skin even, bright, and minimizes my pores. If you read up on the benefits of red light, you'll want one, too! It's pricey, so I think that's why it would make an exceptionally generous and thoughtful gift for the skincare/self-care lover! It's just 10 minutes per session. I usually do it at night before bed. My code SUMMERWIND10 gives you 10% off.
Robe// I think a robe is a fantastic gift, but *only* if you know the recipient needs/wants a robe. This one is so unique.... It's giving Samantha Stevens.
Personalized Hairbrush// Isn't this fun?! I think it's the perfect type of thing for someone who has everything. It would be great for a new mom since this is smaller, they could toss it in a diaper bag, or for someone who travels a lot!
Mini Canvas Tote// I love my mini tote! It's so easy to just toss things in and go! It's just $25 and free monogramming through May 5th!
Diamond Necklace// I have a near identical necklace, and this is another piece I wear 24/7. I can't feel it, and it looks nice with everything I wear. I even wear it to work out. It's so dainty and timeless. My mom and sister both have a similar necklace and wear it daily.
Clover Pendant// This is such a fun necklace, and you can engrave the back! I recommend engraving it with 'Love, x, y, z', (children's names), or doing the children's initials! This is between costume and fine jewelry since it's gold-plated, thick, and won't tarnish! And the gems are usually something like white topaz instead of CZ. I even have some fine jewelry from this brand, and the quality is top-notch.
Face Cream// This is my go-to face cream, and I'll give my mom a bottle for Mother's Day. It's the best, especially when you factor in the low price. So luxurious and it works!
Goose Down Pillow// This is the best pillow ever. Pillows are subjective, so you need to know what Mom likes for this one, but if she loves down, this is the BEST. The gift of a good night's sleep is nearly priceless.
Cashmere Wrap// My favorite! I love these beautiful wraps that come in many colors. You can never have too many cashmere wraps! I think they make a wonderful gift for any occasion.
Glass Vase// Isn't this vase incredible?! One way to elevate flowers is to add them to a vase as part of the gift.
Earrings// I wear these several times per week. My mom and sister got them, too. They are so versatile and give a slightly different vibe than a stud.
Lip Treatment// This is my favorite everyday lip balm. It's so hydrating, and the texture is so smooth. It's also shiny, so it can double as a gloss.
Lounge Shorts// My favorite shorts for lounging. I am eyeing the navy next. Another good new mom gift since they're comfortable and have a stretchy waist, but will have her feeling put together!
Portable Speaker// The sound is incredible on this one. It would be wonderful for someone who loves gardening, since you can move it around the yard with you. The sound is so crisp and clear. Any audio buff would greatly appreciate this!
Clogs// I don't necessarily think these are the most beautiful shoes, but I've had them on my wish list for quite a while. The reviews are great and seem like the perfect comfortable house shoe. I think any gift that adds comfort and ease to someone's life is always great.
Raffia Tote// Isn't this cute?! A new handbag is always a fun gift. My code SYDNEY20 is good for 20% off through the end of April.
Oil Cleanser// I originally got this oil cleanser to shave my legs, and while it's just OK for that, it's one of the best body washes I have ever used. It's so incredibly hydrating. I sometimes skip moisturizer when I get out of the shower because it hydrates my skin and makes it feel so soft for many hours later. It's one of those 'nice to have' things and perfect for someone into skincare! My code SUMMERWIND should work on this for 15% off.
