I don’t know about you but the hardest gift for me is always Mother’s day gifts! Mother’s Day is coming up this weekend, and if you’re anything like me, you’re kind of a last-minute gift-giver. I’m a mother myself so I definitely know how much my mother means to me and I can’t help but always have a hard time deciding on a gift. We love our moms much—I mean, they gave us life and a whole more—so getting the best Mother’s Day gift can be a lot of pressure.
I came up with a handy list of Mother’s Day gift ideas for every type of mom—you know, the stylish mom, the mom who loves to cook, the mom who just needs some time to relax. So I hope that this will help you find the perfect Mother’s Day gift for your special mom right here, right now!

If your mom loves to be at home and is great at making it a cozy one, candles are the perfect gift. Any time of year, candles give your home a more welcome feel fit for the pages of magazines. Plus, you can find the right candle for your mom in a scent you know she’ll love.

Quilt/Bedding

It’s always nice to switch to lighter bedding in the summer to save from some sweaty nights under a winter blanket. But there’s so little time, even for your mom who is an actual superhero. A light quilt or bedding (like a light coverlet for the summer months) is a great gift because it’s personal and shows a lot more thought than you think. If she doesn’t use it for her bed, she’ll probably keep it handy on the couch.

Perfume

Every woman loves her perfume! And we all love to try out new scents—but I think every woman is willing to admit that she’s picky about the scents she likes. But if you know what our mom likes, then you’re the best person to find her a new scent. Shopping for perfume—although the smells can get overwhelming—is also super fun, and she’ll love that you put the time into finding her something new.

Spa Treatment

Treat your mom (and yourself, duh!) to a day at the spa together. This is less about the actual spa treatment and more about spending some quality girl-tome together. To save some money, you can also try a little DIY spa: try setting one up at home with some good old face masks, and essential oils! If your mom needs some much-needed alone time or if you live far away, you can also get her appointment at her favorite place.

Is your mom basically your own personal Jackie O? A silk scarf is the perfect Mother’s day gift for the stylish mom. Since it’s spring (and almost summer) a silk scarf is an absolute necessity for fashionable ladies. And you can select a fun pattern in colors that suit her personality. A silk scarf is also a timeless and elegant addition to our mom’s wardrobe.

Kitchen Appliances

The mom who loves to cook can always use a new kitchen appliance—from the big ones like a coffee maker or KitchenAid to the smaller things like new measuring cups, or a cute little salt and pepper holder set. The mom who cooks always appreciates a new addition in her kitchen, whether it’s big or small.

Vacation Package Plans

If your mom loves to travel, a weekend getaway or a longer vacation plan is such a great gift. A vacation is a pretty big investment, so it will show that you care about her interests and that you care enough to invest in her well-deserved relaxation time. Stuck on where to send her? Ask her where she wants to go, and tell her it’s on you this time. If there’s a place she’s talked about going for years, find a plan that will take her there.
