Best Gifts for Mom: 14 Thoughtful Presents She Will Love

Welcome back to the 12 Days of Gifts Guides! Today we are talking about our favorite lady – mom. Moms deserve to be spoiled every day, but the holidays are the perfect time to treat them! I’ve rounded up my favorite gifts for mom today on the blog.

Here are my picks for the best gifts for mom:

Nordstrom Bliss Blanket ($28.90 – marked down from $39.50)

This blanket always seems to make it onto my gift guides! I’ve tried many blankets over the years, including the famous Barefoot Dreams, but this one takes the cake. Treat mom to the gift of comfort with this gorgeous throw!

Foot Bath ($56.99)

We have one of these footbaths and every single person in my family is obsessed with it. I love filling it up with bath salts and bubbles to give myself the real at-home spa experience. We did some research and tried 3 different ones before going with this one – and trust me, we never looked back!

Thoughtfull Gifting Self Care Gift Box ($49)

Give Mom the gift of self care! After all, who deserves to relax and put their feet up more than our mamas? They do so much for us! This gift box from Thoughtfull Gifting is the perfect gift for the mom who has it all. The Self-Care box will help Mom recharge and feel refreshed, with mom-approved items like:

  • Gold infused brightening under eye mask 
  • Spa essential exfoliating glove 
  • Self care bath soak 
  • Self care journal + diamond top pen to jot down your goals and meditations 
  • Daily reminder positive affirmation card 

I love Thoughtfull because they are female-founded and like me, based in Florida! What’s super cool about this small business is that each gift set is carefully curated and sourced with items from other small business owners as well. And, you can feel good about gifting, as each gift set goes on to help the community with a percentage of sales donated to a charity of choice each quarter.

Volupsa Japonica Spiced Goji Tarocco Orange Large Jar Candle ($32)

gifts for mom

My mom and I are lovinnnng these candles! Voluspa candles have been a long-time favorite of ours. I often gift them to friends and family! They burn great and I like to use the jars after around the house.

Pura x NEST Smart Home Diffuser ($85)

A tech gift for mom! Pura is a smart home diffusion device that fills the home with fragrance. You can purchase all different types of refills from companies like NEST and Capri Blue. The best part is you can control the scent intensity and schedule from your phone! This set comes with two scent refills from NEST. NEST products are some of my mom’s favorites! Easy item to add to your gifts for mom list.

Tory Burch Masks ($35)

Since COVID began, my mom and I have been trying tons of different masks and both agree that these are our FAVORITE! My mom is a teacher, so she is in a mask all hours of the day at school. She feels that these have the best fit and are most comfortable for all-day wear. I love these masks too, especially because of the charitable goal behind them. Tory Burch is actually not making a profit on these masks.

From their website: “The price includes our cost to produce and a $10 donation that will be divided between two organizations. $5 will be donated to International Medical Corps working to stop the spread of COVID-19 in the United States and around the world, and $5 will be donated to the Tory Burch Foundation, working to advance women’s empowerment and women entrepreneurs; with a maximum donation of $500,000 to each organization.”

I love that these masks support a cause while still being a super cute option to stay safe during all the craziness going on right now!

Apple Watch Band ($19.99)

gifts for mom

I picked this watch band up for my mom for Mother’s Day this year and she loved it! It’s always hard to find bands that are chic and look good with every outfit. This one was the perfect choice, and comes at an inexpensive price point of $19!

Book of the Month Club (starts at $49)

My mom absolutely loves to read! A great gift option could be the Book of the Month club. With this subscription, you get to choose from 5 books for your choice of the Book of the Month. They feature some awesome books and even early-release often! A great gift option for the mom that loves to read.

Eyeshadow Palette ($39)

gifts for mom

My mom loves a good eyeshadow palette – especially from Tarte Cosmetics! We both love the Tarte palettes because the colors are pretty, neutral, and pigmented. The shades are all easy to mix and match to create the perfect look!

Jo Malone Perfume ($72)

My mom and I both have an obsession with all things Jo Malone! Wild bluebell is our favorite scent, but we’ve tried many others and loved them all. I like this size because it lasts a surprisingly long time and is small enough to make it through airport security. Perfect item to add to your gifts for mom list!

Kendra Scott Sophia Drop Earrings ($50)

gifts for mom

Kendra Scott has been a long-time favorite in our house! Fun fact – I actually worked in the store. I sold these earrings all the time as a great gift option for all kinds of moms. My mom has these earrings and wears them all the time!

Silk Pillowcase ($25)

gifts for mom

Silk pillowcases have been proven to have many benefits – great for skin, hair, and just better sleep due to the comfort! My mom and I both have this silk pillowcase and absolutely love it. The best part is that it runs for only $25, so it is a great cost-effective option! And it comes in tons of colors to match your sheets!

Pajama Set ($21)

gifts for mom

If your mom is anything like mine, she probably loves pajamas! I have this set in 5 different colors – nope, not kidding. They’re just that good! Best part is that they are inexpensive, so treat your mama to the gift of comfort. I love that these make me look polished and chic at bedtime. Time to retire that old tshirt!

UGG Slippers ($119)

gifts for mom

For as long as I can remember, my mom has been rocking UGG slippers! And, if I’m being honest, I have stolen many a pair from her (oops….) But they’re just that great! My mom’s favorite style is the scuffette. They have solid rubber soles so she can wear them while letting the dogs out outside, but are cozy enough for indoor wear!

That’s all for now! Hope to enjoyed this “gifts for mom” guide. What are you gifting your mom this year? Share down below!
