Share some gift ideas for all the ladies in your life! Moms, grandmas, nannies, girlfriends, mom figures, new moms, anyone you want to shower with something special this Mother’s Day. I also wanted to acknowledge here that I know Mother’s Day can be difficult and sad for a number of reasons. please know that i hold you in my heart.
Hello friends! How was the weekend? Hope you had a great one. Liv had a dance competition so we enjoyed a trip to Phoenix with swimming and dinners in between all the dancing. The pilot stayed here with P to take her to practice and the basketball game. We are officially in the divide and conquer stage of parenting.
For today’s post, I wanted to share some gift ideas for Mother’s Day. I’m not asking for many presents this year – my ideal gift looks like tickets to a show or a holiday! – but I can’t wait to celebrate all the women in our family that we love so much.
I thought I’d share some ideas if you’re shopping and I’d love to hear your gift guide picks!
Flowers and plants:
Venus et fluer flowers. I get ad targeted for these on Facebook ALL THE TIME and they are SO GORGEOUS. Roses last a whole year!
Heart-shaped planter. You love succulents and because they are so hardy, it doesn’t really matter if you have a black thumb.
These pop up cards are so beautiful and unique!
This customizable concrete planter with some air plant. I got these for my mum and nana last year and I love the way they turned out. The quality is also incredible!
Personalized + Jewelry:
Manuscript bracelet. This is designed based on your own handwriting.
These Maya Brenner necklaces are SO gorgeous. (Okay, I want this.)
Stackable name rings. I have a couple of initial rings for Liv and P, and they are my favorite piece of jewelry. It’s such a stylish and sweet gift idea.
This lovely print for mothers and daughters.
An elastic bracelet with a push.
Clothes + beauty:
The best “everything” dress. Dress it up or down. it is perfection.
Classic Tory Burch tote. The color is a surprisingly neutral. This is another great bag which can be used as a diaper bag or beach bag.
These pajamas the these pajamas. My two all time favorites.
Classic white sneakers with a low top.
These pearl hoops. I have a similar pair and they make a bit of a statement while still being classic.
ANYTHING from Voori! I’m obsessed with them performance jogger and overalls. They have a full Mother’s Day gift guide here if you need more ideas!
A comfortable and luxurious robe. I have one very similar and it’s a lighter spring/summer fabric.
Miller sandals with a little extra support. I adore it!
The best sleeping mask. This is a staple in my life (I even travel with it) and I sleep better and more soundly when I use it.
Home + entertainment:
The best humidifier for dry summer months. (use code FITNESSISTA)
A gift box from my favorite spot for local goodies: Creative genre! They make the most beautiful custom boxes.
The softest and warmest blanket.
These comfy Mama Bear slippers.
Under $30:
A cheeky dish towel. “I like big sticks” is my #1.
Motherhood is a walk in the park. Jurassic Park.
For moms who love fitness:
A new yoga mat (<— I've had this for 10+ years and it still looks and works great) or mat towel.
The best leggings or training shorts.
Casual sneakers in a fun new color.
This Fitbit! I can’t even handle the bracelet belt. This is so elegant and beautiful!
Package of lessons at her favorite gym.
The famous sauna blanket (or get it yourself!). Check it out here and use code FITNESSISTA15 for 15% off. I use mine 3-4 times every week and it improves the texture of my skin, helps me sleep deeply and feels amazing. I love it too PEMF Go Mat and Red light face mask! (Use code FITNESSISTA)
Experience Gifts:
A spa day, massage, facial or pedicure.
Plan a movie and dinner night just the two of you.
Offer to wrangle her kids for a few hours while she does whatever she wants. She can use the time to train, meet up with a friend, walk alone in the Target, or stare at the wall in silence. 😉
Sakara meals. These are such a gift, especially if it’s postpartum. Give her the gift of healthy, living food she didn’t have to make. You can use GINAHSAKARA with 20% discount.
Pack a picnic with wine tasting. Invite her to an afternoon picnic with a great cheese board + some of your favorite wines.
And at the end of the day, a nice card really does make all the difference in the world. A little “I see you, and you’re crushing it” can go a long way. <3
So tell me friends: are there any gift ideas on your personal list or that you found this year? Please shout it out in the comments! Mom friends, what do you want for Mother’s Day this year? If I get a homemade card from the girls and a nap, they will cheer me up.
