Mother’s Day 2024 is May 12th, that is just a few weeks away. Time to hop to it and find a gift for your mom, grandma, step-mom or any mother figure in your life. Here are some of the best Mother’s Day gift ideas that moms will love.
Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
The gift of time is the most precious gift you can give your mom. But it is always nice to treat mom to a thoughtful gift. Make Mother’s Day special by letting your mom know how much you love and appreciate her. If your mom is like my mom, she is hard to buy for or claims she already has everything she needs but what about getting her something she didn’t know that she needed?
While there is nothing wrong with something traditional like flowers, or practical like a new tea pot and some tea.Why not find a totally unique Mother’s Day gift for all the mother figures in your life? Whether it’s your mom, sister, grandma, or step-mom, these gifts will ensure they feel and know they are loved.
Here are 10Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
1.Custom Handwriting Bracelet
A custom handwriting bracelet is a super thoughtful gift. Personally, I think this is a great gift to get for yourself as well to preserve a little bit of someone dear to you.
2. Handmade Vase
A one-of-a-kind, wheel-thrown, hand-decorated, stoneware vase. Shelia Fox Pottery creates vases based on the patterns of traditional Irish Knit sweaters from the Aran Islands. Aren’t they gorgeous?
3.Personalized Recipe Plate
Find your favorite family recipe and have it made into a custom recipe plate. My mom would love a plate with her moms’ cinnamon roll recipe. I would love one too! Rarely do we save recipes on cards or scraps of paper anymore we save them on Pinterest and on our phones. This is a wonderful way to share a bit of your family culinary legacy.
4. Mother’s Day stationery set
A stationery set is the perfect gift for the paper lover. Let’s bring back snail mail this year.
5. Magazine Subscription
How about a magazine subscription to one of her favorite home decor or gardening magazines? I am partial to The English Home, Milieu, and Cooks Illustrated.
6. New Cookbook
Or perhaps a new cookbook to add to her collection? The Cook’s Atelier is perfect for a Francophile mom! But you can never go wrong with Smitten Kitchen or any of the Half Baked Harvest cook books.
7. Gift hamper
Treat mom to her very own picnic with a collection of gourmet snacks and sweets in a beautiful gift hamper.
8. Bake or Buy a Cake
On mom’s special day a cake is ALWAYS a good idea. You can buy a cake or make one. A homemade cake is a gift made with love, if you are not a scratch baker, make one from a box but make the homemade frosting. Do not skimp on homemade frosting, it is easy and delicious.
You could try Hershey’s perfectly chocolate frosting or the best buttercream ever.
My mom’s favorite is sunshine cake, and it is a labor of love but I am happy to make it for her when she visits. Another favorite is this chocolate cake.
9. Your Drawing as Letterpress Art
Turn one of your child or grandchild’s drawings into a piece of art for mom or grandma. This is such a special gift that will be loved and cherished.
10. A Coffee Table Book
A coffee table book is another great gift idea for mom, pick her favorite subject or interest and find a book that she will love. How about interior design book written by your moms favorite designer or a gardening book? I think they would make a wonderful gift. After all, books are the perfect gift, in my humble opinion.
If you need some book suggestions check out “My Amazon Bookshop” it is filled with books on all subjects.

Do you know where the green tea set is from that you featured in first photo? I LOVED!!
Hello Patti,
The photos is a few years old, the tea set is the Lilypad set from Anthropologie, it is no longer available at the store but you can find pieces on eBay and Poshmark. Here is a link for the teapot and 2 cups on eBay https://rstyle.me/+FS9IfxnXg5OCvtj3kZxjVQ
