Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Anyone else feel as though you blinked and the calendar changed to May? Not that I am complaining. The school year is starting to wind down, the weather is turning warmer, and summer vacations are coming down the pipeline. But May has one other special day to celebrate. The day reserved solely for all the moms, grandmas, and mother figures in your life. Some years, I am on top of planning a great gift for mom. Other years, it is a last minute card and/or special call. This year I’m spreading the love and putting together this post for Mother’s Day Gift Ideas. Full of old favorites and fresh new ideas that any mom is sure to love.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Recipe Book

Now if your mom is anything like mine, she already has a solid stash of recipes lining her shelves with old church cookbooks, magazines, and worn out index cards.

If you’re concerned that mom couldn’t possibly need another recipe book, why not DIY and create your own family recipe book?

Or if you’re not feeling like taking the time to make a recipe book for mom, there are some great new cookbook releases this springs.

Like this gorgeous, coffee table worthy, book from Joanna Gaines of HGTV’s “Fixer Upper”.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Super Soft Sheets

I’ll be honest. Mom actually bought ME these sheets for Christmas!

My mattress is a little larger than most Queen sizes and I was having a hard time finding sheets with deep enough pockets to fit. Mom listened (like she usually does) and bought me this set.
And let me say. They are the most magical sheets I have ever had. So soft!

I had told my mom how amazing they were, so when she stopped at my house a few weeks ago she tested them out for herself. Let’s just say she loved them just as much as I did.

Soooo guess what your getting for Mother’s Day this year mom! (If you are reading this post, please act surprised on May 13th).

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Alex and Ani Bracelet

I have mentioned before my love for these Alex and Ani Bracelets. 

A great piece of jewelry that can be casual or dressed up for special occasions.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Breakfast In Bed

Did you know Mother’s Day is the busiest day of the year for restaurants?

I love a great brunch buffet as much as the next girl, but why hassle with the crowds or worry about making reservations?

Instead make a great breakfast at home with some of these favorites.

This Breakfast Burrito Casserole can be made ahead of time and popped in the oven on Sunday morning.

And who doesn’t love this play on classic Biscuits and Gravy?

And the star of the show for any brunch… The Best Buttermilk Pancakes.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Momma Bear Coffee Mug

When I visit my parents, Mom and I enjoy sharing a cup of coffee in the morning.

We each usually have our go-to mug, but I love this Momma Bear Coffee Mug. 

I am always telling mom, she is my fierce momma bear and protector. I love and appreciate that about her!

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Flower Planters

I always feel as though Mother’s Day and flowers seem to go hand in hand.

Why not buy some beautiful planters and fill them with mom’s favorite blooms.

A gift that is sure to keep giving her a smile all through summer.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Canvas Prints

Probably one of the best presents I have given mom in past years is this family picture printed on a canvas wrap.

It is one of her favorites and having it hang in our living room on a beautiful canvas print done by Nations Photo Lab, is a great way to show it off.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

No matter what you end up gifting to mom this Mother’s Day, she will appreciate.

Always remember that what she loves most, is being your mom.
