Flowers
Flowers. You may know by now that flowers are our choice for everything. I mean, you just can’t go wrong. You can choose from a variety of options such as roses, tulips, or lilies. You can also add a personal touch to the flowers, such as a handwritten note or a special vase. I ADORE the flowers at Terrain and recently discovered Fresh Sends, which is SO fun and has a fresh vibe. Grace Rose Farm has the most exquisitely smelling bouquets that I’ve bought before. They both have special Mother’s Day options so hop on it!
If you want to go the paper flower route, here are some gifts to think about:
- Paper Orchids
- Flower Stickers by Helen Dealtry
- Paper Flower Embroidery Boutonnière
- Paper Flower Bouquet E-Book
Personalized Jewelry
Personalized Jewelry is always a great option for a Mother’s Day gift. It can be personalized with your mother’s initials or name to make it even more special. You can choose from a variety of options such as necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. A beautiful piece of jewelry will always be a cherished keepsake that your mother can wear with pride. This once combines birth flowers to form a bouquet–so sweet! And this one does it with the birth gemstones. Not to mention the cutest selection of earrings currently available in our shop; if your mother would love a new pair of course!
Personalized art
Personalized art. My friend Merrilee Liddiard of Mer Mag does the most amazing portraits of mother and children every year. It’s SO worth it! I’m so lucky to have scored one!
Custom Photo Book
Custom photo book. We have our own photo book collection with Mixbook and while it’s technically for weddings, you can customize it to anything and I think it would be perfect for Mother’s Day. You can see it here! 
Gift Basket
Gift Basket. Honestly, I’m a sucker for a gift basket. I know they’re so cliche, but without fail, I melt when I receive one. I just feel so taken care of! You can create a basket filled with her favorite items such as chocolates, teas, perfumes, or skincare products. You can also add some personal touches to the basket, such as a handwritten note or a picture of you and your mother together. Once again, another new discovery that I recently used was Fresh Sends. Their Fresh Set is so cute! And Harry and David is always a classic!
Gifts from your favorite artists
Favorite artist gifts. Some of my favorite artists have special items in their shop and Mother’s Day is a great day to pull one of these out. Some of my favorites are Polly Fern, Matilda Goad, Phoebe Wahl. Oh, and can I say us? Ha! I think our aster blanket would be perfect! Or our scissors! Or our dresses with Printfresh!
Spa Day
Spa Day. Pamper your mother with a relaxing spa day. You can book a day at a local spa or create your own spa day at home. You can set the mood with candles, soft music, and aromatherapy oils. You can also give your mother a massage or a facial to help her feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Arrange a gift card at a local spa! Or try out a spa in a box like this one (I’d die for one of these!).
Chocolates
Chocolates. Man, it’s always cliche, but you just can’t go wrong with chocolates and look at how cute these ones are! They’re from Terrain. 
Cooking Class
Cooking Class. If your mother loves to cook, then a cooking class is a perfect gift for her. You can book a cooking class at a local cooking school or hire a personal chef to teach your mother new recipes and techniques. This is a great way to spend quality time with your mother while learning a new skill together. If you’re local to Utah, Orson Gygi has great classes! If you’re thinking of some gifts that belong in the kitchen, go for an apron or one of these speckled loopy mugs by Betsy Croft.
Subscription Box
Subscription Box. A subscription box is a great way to surprise your mother with a thoughtful gift every month. You can choose from a variety of subscription boxes such as beauty, food, or wellness. This is a great way to show your mother that you are thinking of her throughout the year. Did you know there is an ice cream of the month club from Jeni’s?! It’s amazing!
Personalized Stationery
Personalized Stationery. If your mother loves to write or journal, then personalized stationery is a great gift option. You can choose from a variety of options such as notepads, journals, and pens. You can also personalize the stationery with your mother’s name or initials to make it even more special. I love this set from Papier!
Books and Journals
Books and journals. If your mother loves to read, then books are a great gift option. You can choose from a variety of genres such as fiction, non-fiction, or self-help. You can also choose books that are related to your mother’s interests or hobbies to make it even more personal. I adore this recipe journal from Papier (you can personalize it too!). Feel free to browse journals or notebooks here as well, they are great keepsakes and can be such a useful gift!
Gift Cards
Gift Card. If you are unsure about what to get your mother, then a gift card is always a safe option. You can choose from a variety of options such as a spa gift card, a restaurant gift card, or a shopping gift card. This is a great way to give your mother the gift of choice. I love doing a shop that the recipient wouldn’t normally buy at although would dream of it.
There are many gift options available to show your mother how much you love and appreciate her on Mother’s Day. And if nothing else, a card with suffice! Here are some Mother’s Day cards to choose from if you find yourself in need of one!
