Moms are just the type to give you all their time and love, and on Mother’s Day, they’ll say, “Oh no, we don’t want anything!” or “You’re my greatest gift.” And yes, of course, chocolates and flowers will always brighten their day, but sometimes you want to go the extra mile.

They’re often the kind of people who don’t ask for much, and I can totally relate because that’s exactly how my mom is.

So, let me take the guesswork out of it. If you want to make this Mother’s Day extra special or surprise your mom with a thoughtful gift, here are 25 Mother’s Day gift ideas that fit any budget and any type of mom.

25 Mother’s Day Gifts for Mom 

1. Photo Printer so mom can print all her memories

Description: Is your mom tech-savvy? Even if she’s not, this easy-to-use photo printer is a great gift for moms who love to look at photos of you (and any siblings, of course). A photo printer brings back the nostalgia of physical copies, making it not only convenient but also sentimental.

Where to buy: You can pick these up at your local Walmart or order online at Amazon.com

Price point: $90-$200

2. Personalized Photo Gift

Description: Moms often love sentimental gifts and they definitely love their kids (we hope, lol). Recreating old photos with your siblings and printing them on something they can keep forever is a unique and heartfelt way to show your mom some love this Mother’s Day. I once saw someone print their mugshot on a blanket, which was hilarious and a fun twist if your mom has a good sense of humor.

Where to buy: Etsy is one of the best places to find unique personalized gift ideas that are affordable Mother’s day gifts.

Price point: This can range from $13 - $100 depending on what you get, so this can be customized to your budget!

3. Digital Photo Frame

Description: For a more personal gift, you could pick up a digital photo frame. These aren’t your average frames, they’ve been upgraded! Now you can actually upload photos directly to the frame from anywhere!

Where to buy: Amazon or your local tech store will carry these gifts.

Price: These frames range from $150-$250

4. Self-Care Basket or Spa Day

Description: Moms do so much for everyone and often don’t take time for themselves. A self-care gift gives them no excuse to not have some self care time! You can either give them a basket full of soothing products like lavender Epsom salts, their favorite tea, body lotion, face masks, etc., or go for a spa gift card, letting the professionals take care of her.

Where to buy: Check out your local salon or beauty store. Saje Wellness also has great bundles to choose from!

Price point: This can range from $50-$500, this can be customized to your budget.

5. For the Cozy Mom Who Loves Tea and Hosting

Description: A great Mother’s Day gift for a mom who loves to host is a new tea set. I'm not sure if everyone's mom has beautiful tea cups they only bring out for guests and then the kids get the basic cups, but giving her an everyday beautiful tea set she can bring out before the high-quality china can be an incredible gift that moms will use.

Where to buy: Just like most things (I mean literally anything), you can grab a set off Amazon. But you will also find beautiful options browsing on Google—at Wedgwood, for example—or heading to a local antique store if your budget allows!

Price: These can range dramatically, but they will likely start at about $50!

6. Sustainable Gifts for Mom - The WOMADS Bundle

Description: If your mom loves high-quality items and has an eye for sustainability, the Womads bundle is a great option for her. These high-quality leather accessories are working towards reforestation in Colombia, and the rubber soles are made sustainably from the sap in trees. The best part about the bundle is you can pick which one best represents your mom.

Where to buy: Start by deciding if your mom is more of a Peep Toe or Oxford Lady.  You'll then see discounted bundles with shoes and matching crossbody bags and you can pick which color best matches her vibe!

Price: $293.50 - $373.50

7. For the Boss Mom

Description: For the mom who gets things done, she needs a fresh pair of shoes that will support her. If the bundle is not the right gift for mom, a new pair of leather Oxfords is a high-quality gift that will last her years!

Where to buy: Depending on her style, there are a wide range of colors to choose from on Womads.co

Price: $286

8. Personalized Jewelry

Description: A timeless and meaningful gift, personalized jewelry with initials, birthstones, or family members’ names can make a beautiful, sentimental Mother’s day gift. There is something so sweet about a gift that can be worn every day that is unique and personal to your mom.

Where to buy: Etsy has many custom jewelry shops, or you can check out brands like Pandora and Mejuri for personalized pieces.

Price Point: $50-$300, depending on the design and materials.

9. Customized Recipe Book

Description: If your mom loves to cook, you could create a personalized recipe book filled with her favorite dishes. A fun way to make this a surprise is by asking her how to make certain recipes you loved as a kid, take photos of your dish and create a cookbook! This would take time so if you want to go for this route maybe for Mothers Day 2026!

Where to buy: You can create a custom recipe book on sites like Canva or put it together yourself as a DIY scrapbook project.

Price Point: $20-$150, depending on customization and printing options. 

10. Indoor Herb Garden Kit

Description: For moms who love cooking and fresh ingredients, an indoor herb garden kit is a thoughtful and practical gift. It allows her to grow fresh herbs right in her kitchen!

Where to buy: AeroGarden, Click & Grow, or smaller DIY herb kits are available at home and garden stores or Amazon (of course)!

Price Point: $30-$150, depending on the kit’s features.

11. Memory Jar

Description: A Memory Jar is a fun and sentimental gift that’s easy to personalize. Fill the jar with notes, memories, quotes, or reasons why you love your mom. She can pull out a note every day or whenever she needs a little reminder of how special she is.

Where to buy: You can create this yourself as a DIY project or buy pre-made memory jars on Etsy that you can fill up!

Price Point: $10-$30 for a pre-made jar; DIY costs can vary.

12. Wine Member Subscription

Description: If you want to give your mom the gifts that keep giving, a Wine Member Club for a few months can be the ideal gift for a mom who loves wine. If they have a winery they love, you can check in and see if they have a wine member program. The New York Times also reported on a few top Wine Clubs you could look into as well!

Where to buy: This would be local to the wineries near you or online options!

Price: These can start at about $200 a month! This would be a great gift for siblings to split as well!

13. Electric Wine Opener

Description: Another option for a mom who loves her wine is an electric wine opener. You can pair this with her favorite bottle of wine to complete the gift! Sometimes the simplest gifts go a long way. This is also a Mother’s Day gift she could use everyday.

Where to buy: There is a huge selection, but this is the one I have, and I absolutely love it.

Price point: $20-$30

14. For the Mom Who LOVES Coffee

Description: If your mom loves a good cup of coffee, she may love an espresso machine. Once I got mine, I craved my morning coffee over any coffee shop and certainly over any automatic machine. I have the Breville Pro, and I love it so much. I also know a few people who own the Breville Express, and they speak super highly of it. Life is short, if your mom likes coffee, she deserves a damn good cup every morning!

Where to buy: Breville, KitchenAid, Ninja. There are a ton of different kinds, check out a few blogs that compare each model to find the one that best fits your mom.You can also check out Amazon for more options with different price points!

Where to buy: Check out local shops she loves or ones she hasn’t been to! If she is going on a trip soon, maybe check out nearby shops for her to try!
Price: $20+

Here are a few thoughtful gifts for a mom-to-be:

16. Children’s Book

Description: There are a couple of ways you can go about this! You could head into your local bookstore and pick up a couple of children’s books. Maybe even books that the mom-to-be used to love. For me, I loved Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and Brown Bear Brown Bear, What Do You See. Grabbing a book she loved as a kid will only make this more sentimental.

Where to buy:  Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, Brown Bear Brown Bear, What Do You See.

17. Rocking Chair

Description: There are a ton of things soon-to-be moms are thinking about, and one of those is probably setting up a nursery. A rocking chair is a beautiful and cozy gift that she and the baby will use every day. If she’s all about details, maybe know the theme of the nursery before grabbing something for it!

18. A Pregnancy Pillow

Description: I'll be honest, she could totally use a pregnancy pillow when and when she's not pregnant; it just seems a bit odd to get it for someone who isn’t pregnant. Anyways, a pregnancy pillow is something that would last years and is a great gift for someone who struggles to sleep, whether that's because they are growing a baby or for another reason.

Where to buy: Amazon has a wide selection that ranges in price.

Price Point: $40-$60

19. For the Moms Having a Tough Pregnancy

Description: If the soon-to-be mom in your life is having a tough go, picking up things to make her days easier will go a long way. Nausea candies are an easy and simple gift that will help her go about her day as she manages all the things going on in her brain.

Examples: The Pink Stork Organic Peppermint Sweets for Morning Sickness is a great example of something that can support her day-to-day.

Price Point: $20

For the Mom Who Loves Experiences

I love gifts that are experiences. Sometimes when people say they don’t need anything, it's true. I also don’t feel like I really need anything, but going out and enjoying time together is, in my opinion, one of the best gifts. With that said, if your mom is a theater lover, I already know she would love to experience that with her family.

20. Kids Cook Dinner

Description: Don’t let this scare you off if you and your siblings don’t feel like good cooks. Your mom would be happy with a bowl of cereal; it really is about the action and the thought. This could also be a fun bonding experience for the whole family, which in itself is a gift for a mom.

Where to buy: Some easy ideas are homemade pizzas; you can customize the toppings and everyone can have fun and be creative with this.

Price point: Can range in price depending on groceries and what you’re planning on cooking.

21. An Airbnb Gift Card

Description: Does your mom deserve a vacation? An Airbnb gift card is a great way for her to choose her destination on her own time.
