Every Mother's Day people are looking to get something special for their mother. While flowers and chocolates are a common standby, let's look at some other awesome Mother's Day gift ideas.
Gifts for the Mum's Who Love to Read
Obviously, if their favorite author has released a book then grab them a copy, or if you've heard of a new author that you think they'd like this is an ideal time to make that introduction!
Your mother might be a regular at her local library in which case a library book would definitely not go astray.
Personally, there have been two gifts which I have absolutely loved as a bookworm mum - my kindle was a gift from my husband. Now I've always loved reading 'real books', but I've found with a kindle I am reading a lot more (and have ventured into a lot more genres). I tend to read fiction on my kindle and nonfiction (books that I'm likely to refer back to) as actual books.
The other gift is a gift I gave myself -
Kindle Unlimited. It is amazing, in the first week of my Christmas holiday this year I downloaded 13 books through Kindle Unlimited and read them all. It's like an enormous library of books to choose from.
Gifts for Tea or Coffee Drinking Mothers
Don't all mothers drink at least one of these? You could buy them some specialty coffees or teas or even
a coffee machine. Another idea that always seems to be a winner is a mug.
Mugs for Mum Ideas
There are lots of different gift ideas for coffee lovers such as these coffee slippers.
When it comes to the tea-drinking mother then we have some great gift ideas right here -
Gifts for Moms That Enjoy Wine
You can get some beautiful wine glasses including the fun Lolita collection that I'm sure any mom would love. If they already have wine glasses covered then maybe they need some wine pearls ...
Spa Gift Ideas for Your Mother
Maybe you want your mother to feel special and a spa day with you just isn't on the cards. Why not give her some of Arbonne's beautiful spa range so that she can have a spa experience in her own home.
Essential Oils for Your Mum
Following on from the spa idea is essential oils, if your mum loves essential oils then she may have her own selection, but I'm sure she would be happy to get some aromatherapy jewelry or a diffuser. If she's interested (or you think she would be) in aromatherapy then you could get her a few essential oils.
Some great essential oils for a beginner include lavender, lemon and peppermint (make sure that any you purchase are 100% pure essential oils).
Why I Love My Aromatherapy Necklace
I love my aromatherapy necklace, it's something I had been thinking of getting for a while, but it was actually my daughter who finally brought me one as a gift. Let me share my review with you and let you know how I wouldn't be without this now.
An Essential Oil Diffuser Lives Up to All the Hype
I received a HoMedics brand of essential oil diffuser as a gift and I love it. It's easy to use. The rotating colored lights gives the room a lovely ambience as well. Read my review to see what my hesitation on getting one was and why I think it lives up to the hype.
Lava Stone Bracelet Review
These bracelets are fully adjustable due to the sliding knot and are surprisingly affordable. Lava stones can be used as a wearable oil diffuser. They also make a very attractive fashion accessory.
Gift Ideas for Mothers Who Love a Puzzle
If your mother enjoys jigsaw puzzles or Sudoku then I have a few gift ideas she may enjoy right here:
Wooden Puzzle Compartment Boxes
The boxes are offered individually with different designs to choose from. The workmanship is beyond outstanding. You would never know just looking at the box that it is also a fabulous puzzle with secret compartments inside.
A Novel Gift for a Sudoku Fan
I think this novel gift idea for Sudoku fans is even more apt in 2020! It is ideal for a mom that has a sense of humour as well as a love of this numerical puzzle, I know my mum would get a laugh out of it.
Reviewing Ravensburger Puzzles Over 2000 Pieces
Ravensburger is a brand of puzzle that I can count on for quality. With over 2000 pieces in these puzzles they are ideal for a mother who is serious about her jigsaw puzzles (although you may want to measure her table beforehand to make sure it will fit!
More Gift Ideas that Moms Will Love
Of course, I love a comfy pair of PJs, a dressing gown, or a warm pair of slippers when it comes to comfy and practical gift ideas. In fact, a gift idea that was a huge hit with this mum was
a cow onesie!
Scarves are also a great gift idea and I know I've got a few for my own mother over the last few years. In 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, a group of people that I work online with started to show off their scarf selections by way of big hair bows. I couldn't resist joining in!
Beautiful Affordable Scarves Make Great Gift Ideas
If you can't be there with your mother this Mother's Day then why not look at getting her lipstick to brighten up her day so that she can smile anyway!
What Will You Be Getting Your Mum This Year?
I've actually gotten my mum something from Arbonne this year (I can't say what in case she reads this) for a couple of reasons. The first is that I think she'll love it (the most important thing after all). The second is that I could log into my online account, order something for her and get it shipped straight to her door even though we live in different countries. That is what I call convenience.

Lovely list of gift ideas for Mother's Day, Louanne. I know a number of Moms who would enjoy each one of these suggestions. For myself - a new book by a favorite author is Number 1 from this list. And, in fact, one such book is now on its way to me. :) Happy Mothers Day!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe that Mother's Day is already upon us! All of your gift suggestions are great. I like the idea of giving Mom a day off to relax in her pajamas and house shoes, allowing her to sit back and enjoy reading a good book without the stress of housework & cooking. Frankly, she deserves more than just one day like that!
ReplyDeleteMy mother was the hardest person to buy for. I was always trying to find something that would delight her. Because she loved crossword puzzles, I could usually find a book of puzzles, or a crossword dictionary that would please her. These are all great suggestions. Sounds like your mother is getting a really great gift this year. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteAll of these are great ideas, thanks Louanne for coming up with such a comprehensive bunch of ideas sure to please any and every mom and grandmother too.
ReplyDeleteI love the suggestions here, especially those slippers! Super cute. I'd love a pair of those. That spa basket interests me as well.
