Shopping for your mom in this season of life feels different, doesn’t it? We’re not just daughters anymore—we’ve lived, loved, and learned, and we can now see our mothers through a different lens. Maybe she’s in her 70s, 80s, or beyond. Maybe she’s still fiercely independent or slowing down just a bit. Whether it’s for Mother’s Day, her birthday, or just a sweet surprise, our gift ideas are all about thoughtfulness–they’re a little comforting, a little nostalgic, and full of heart.

The right necklace, bracelet, or bag can make your whole outfit (and day) better. Whether you’re treating yourself or looking for a thoughtful gift for someone special, a great accessory is always a good idea. We’ve rounded up some favorite jewelry and accessories that are perfect for gifting—or keeping!
1 // Travel Mug
Is your mom a tea drinker? This Italian Blue Spode travel mug will make it easy to walk and talk to a friend’s house with her cuppa. Add in some fancy French tea and she will be thrilled.

A safer alternative to burning a candle, this candle warmer makes a great gift, especially for a mom who might be getting a little forgetful. Pair it with your favorite candle.
3 // Sneakers
The ON Cloud sneakers have a slip on version – stylish and practical. Your mom can wear these all day and her feet and back will thank her.

If mom loves gardening, then she’ll enjoy this indoor herb garden. Easy to maintain, and she’ll have fresh herbs when she’s cooking.
5 // Body Care Set
Does your mom love lotions and potions? She will be TikTok trendy with this Osea body care set. Clean beauty and so hydrating, she will want the full size!
6 // Hand Massager
Mom’s aching hands will appreciate this hand massager. After lots of crocheting, this is just what she needs!

You’re never too old for a fun nail kit! Can’t get to the nail salon? No problem. This clean beauty Londontown manicure set has everything a mom could want to keep her nails looking fresh.
8 // Paper Flowers
Instead of a card, send these flowers from Freshcut Paper. Your mom will love them–mine did! These paper flowers look so amazing and (bonus!) they last forever. p.s. Their collection of pet cards are adorable!!

Your mom will sleep like a queen in these cute cotton striped pajamas. They come in lots of colors – so you can order her favorite. Also, they have pockets!

This is the #1 bestselling throw from Amazon. Comes in lots of colors and sizes. For a blanket, I prefer to opt for a twin size for added coverage and extra coziness.
More Gift Ideas We’ve Shared…
Here’s a quick round up of some gift ideas we’ve shared recently.
If your mom loves decorating for every holiday, but lugging around bins of decorations has gotten tougher over the years, this is for her–a set of seasonal garden flags add a festive touch without all the effort. You can get a full set of 12 (one for each month) or just grab a few to cover the seasons. Pro tip: grab the pack of pants hangers, too—they’re perfect for storing the flags neatly.
Do you have a friend that is REALLY hard to buy gifts for? Like the friend, mother, sister that already has everything? I found the perfect gift under $50. Perhaps the cutest reusable shopping tote I’ve ever seen. I’ve ordered the small size for my farmer’s market loving friend. Would also make an amazing beach bag. The colors are stunning!
This is one of the best perfume sample sets available – 30 scents to try! Add a cute little dish to keep them in. It’s a great gift for mom…or treat yourself.
Gift your mom, daughter, sister, grandma, aunt or friend (or yourself!) one of these cute little beauty sets. Perfect for any occasion, the scents are heavenly, all under $35. Choose from a trio of hand creams or a travel set. Pro tip: Maybe grab a couple of them to keep your “gift closet” stocked!
