As Mother's Day quickly approaches, I cannot help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude for this season of life with my little family. I am calling it my golden era of motherhood, because I cannot imagine it getting any better than this.
And I would not be here without the mamas who help support me—especially the two who are now the most loving grandmas to our babies. I curated these gift ideas with them in mind, along with my own personal favorites, and thoughtful finds any mama I know would adore.
From home decor and small luxuries, to practical and pretty—I hope this list helps you in your search for the well suited gift for mom this year!
1. Skylight Digital Picture Frame / $149 / This was gifted to my parents last Christmas, and it is has brought them so much joy. Everyone in the family can send photos to it at anytime with the app—it is particularly quick and easy to do! They love seeing new photos of their children and grandkids pop up at random. Highly recommend for any loved one.
2. Paint by Numbers Kit / $25 / My mom is recently retired and cannot wait to rekindle her creative hobbies. This paint-by-numbers kit is a fun and relaxing way to ease back into painting at her leisure, and she'll end up with well composed canvas art.
3. Lovebox / $169 / Brighten her day with photos, drawings and messages from anywhere, at any time. She'll be delighted when she sees the heart spin, notifying her that a surprise is waiting for her inside the box.
4. Rifle Paper Co Market Pad / $14 / If your mom is like mine and prefers to write down lists the old fashioned way, this magnetic market pad will make her grocery planning more cheerful. Pair it with this pretty floral writing pen!
5. Inkless Thermal Printer / $89 (on sale) / The practical gift she did not know she needed! I bought one of these for myself last year —mostly for printing return labels, and it is a huge upgrade to a traditional printer. Easily print black + white documents from your laptop or phone, via bluetooth or cord. No more bulky desktop printers or expensive ink refills!
6. Martha Stewart 14pc Knife Set / $60 / The gift that keeps on giving. I bought my mom a new knife set a couple years ago and she still tells me how much she loves it. This one is is as well composed as it is functional, and the price is a steal!

9. Williams Sonoma Pink Grapefruit Essentials Kit / $30 / Freshen up her kitchen cleaning routine with this grapefruit soap and countertop spray set. This best-selling product looks as good as it smells!
10. Seaside Citronella Wood Candle / $59 / The only thing better than a striking looking and smelling candle is one that also keeps bugs at bay. Mosquito repellents are a must for our Florida backyard dinners, and this beauty would be a most welcome addition.

20. Reduce 50oz Tumbler / $30 / This tumbler kept me hydrated through those exhausting newborn months, and I still use it nearly every day. It keeps my water ice cold for hours, fits in my car cupholder, and the extra large capacity helps me reach my daily intake.
21. DRMTLGY Tinted SPF Moisturizer / $29 / I use this every day! It has a smooth, weightless feel and the Zinc based SPF 46 keeps my skin protected without any white cast. The sheer tint is icing on the cake.
22. Handmade Pearl Drop Earrings / $31 / Pearl earrings are classic, and my everyday go-to. These baroque pearls have a handmade quality that make them feel extra special, but still unfussy enough to wear with anything.
23. Laneige Icons To Go Set / $27 / Add indulgence to her nightly regimen with these top-rated skincare essentials. I use the water bank cream and lip sleeping mask every night—I cannot go to bed without them!
24. Anastasia BrowFreeze / $26 / The single cosmetic product I swear by above all else. My brow styling game has been transformed since discovering this product a couple years ago, and they get complements everywhere I go. This stuff will change your mama's life (or at least, her beauty routine).
25. Vuori Performance Jogger / $94 / The softest and comfiest joggers everyone's talking about. I have seen them on friends in person and they are extremely flattering—and they actually fit us short girls! These are at the top of my wishlist this year.
I hope this Mother's Day is full of love and appreciation for all the mamas in your life (including yourself!) ♥
