Mother's Day 2024 will be here before you know it and there’s no better time than now to start planning mom’s gift.

Let’s face it, moms do a lot, and they deserve a gift that reflects that. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of 23 unique Mother’s Day gifts that she will truly love.

A Personalized Picture Frame for Mom

Nothing pulls on the heartstrings of a mother more than an adorable photo of her children. Pair that with a frame engraved with a sweet saying and personalized with the kids’ names and you’ve got a gift she’ll be showing off to everyone who stops by. Buying for a new mom? Check out this Personalized First Mother’s Day Picture Frame.

A Stainless Wine Tumbler

Moms need time to wine down too! A personalized stainless wine tumbler will not only hold her favorite vino, it will keep it at its ideal temperature. Promote yourself to the title of “Mom’s Favorite” by pairing this gift with her favorite bottle.

A Food Delivery Service

How many meals has mom made for you? Think about it… it’s probably more than you can imagine. Give her a break by gifting her a food delivery service. You can easily purchase gift cards on UberEats or GrubHub so she can order her favorite local eats right to her doorstep.

An Engraved Cutting Board

For the moms who prefer to cook themselves, treat her to a one-of-a-kind engraved cutting board. Opt for a wooden cutting board – it’s usually more durable and bacteria-resistant. Is mom more of a baker than a chef?

Dinner and A Show

After two years of being stuck at home, we’re going to bet that mom is craving a night out! Look into local events to find something she may like such as an off-Broadway production, a concert by her favorite artist or a comedy show. Then, surprise her with tickets and a pre-show dinner reservation.

A Book Club Subscription

Does mom always have a book in her hand? Let her escape within the pages of top-rated books by enrolling her in a book club. Choose from a monthly book club subscription where she’ll get a new book each month or a one-time book club gift box like Reese’s Book Club’s Box of Reading Gift Set that includes a book and self-care items.

A Grocery Delivery Subscription

Check off one of mom’s most time-consuming chores by gifting her a grocery delivery subscription. Many grocery delivery services, including Instacart and Shipt, offer gift cards that mom can easily redeem in the app. Then, she can get her grocery shopping done from the comfort of her home.

An Online Course

Does mom have an appetite for knowledge? Help her take her skill set to the next level by enrolling her in an online class. These days you can find a multitude of course subjects online. Cooking, crafting, photography, web design… heck, we even found a ghost hunting course! Websites such as Udemy and Skillshare offer hundreds of different classes taught by industry leaders and professionals.  

A Custom Family Portrait

We love these custom family portraits and your mom will too! Search “custom family portraits” in Etsy to discover a variety of portrait styles including watercolor family portraits and caricature portraits created by talented artists.

A “Letters to My Child” Journal

Give mom a dedicated place to jot down all her stories, advice and other tidbits she wants to share with her child as he/she grows. Personalized with the child’s name, this letters to my child journal is a gift that both mom and child will appreciate.

A Seed Ball Kit

Sure, a bouquet of flowers is great… until they’re dead. That’s why we love the idea of sending mom a seed ball kit so she can grow flowers or herbs that will last! These seed ball kits from Modern Sprout include the essentials she’ll need to start her own garden.

A Custom Garden Flag

Give mom’s outdoor space a personal touch with a customized garden flag! With so many designs to choose from, you’ll be sure to find one that fits her style, like this monogrammed floral garden flag for mom.

A Spa Certificate

Moms are so busy putting their families first that they forget about their own self-care. Show mom that she too deserves to be pampered by purchasing a gift certificate to her favorite local spa or salon.

Mommy & Me Outfit

Is there anything cuter than matching mother daughter outfits? We think not! Create an Instagram-ready photo opt by gifting mom and her “mini-me” a Mommy and Me outfit. You can find hundreds of Mommy and me tees on Etsy or spoil the duo with a set from Lilly Pulitzer’s Mommy and Me line.

A Home Makeover

Give mom’s favorite room in the house a makeover! Virtual interior design websites, including Modsy and Havenly, make the process of redecorating her space super easy. Simply take their style quiz, upload a photo of the room and a professional designer will create an interactive 3D rendering of your space complete with layout and design ideas as well as links to purchase recommended furniture and décor items.

Sweet Treats

Satisfy mom’s sweet tooth with a membership to the Candy Club – a monthly candy subscription club. Each month, mom will receive six 6-oz cups of candy. You can even select between sweet or sour candy!

An Organized Home

Are mom’s closets and pantries a hot mess? Help her get organized by hiring a professional organizer! You can easily find local professionals at NeatMethod who will first offer an in-home or online consultation and then get to work organizing the space and categorizing its contents.

Workout Gear

Any fitness-loving mom will appreciate new workout gear! Yoga mats, water bottles, resistant bands… there’s so many items to choose from. We love this weighted bangle set from Anthropologie that will not only add resistance to mom’s workout, but also boost her every day movement.  

A Family Photography Session

Capture family memories that mom will cherish forever! You can find dozens of local photographers online with a simple search. Once you find a few you like, be sure to follow them on social media. Many local photographers offer discounted mini-sessions around popular holidays such as Mother’s Day.

A Mystery Surprise Bath Bomb

Make mom’s relaxing bath time more valuable… literally. These bath bombs have a hidden piece of jewelry inside that could be worth up to $5,000!

A Travel Map      

Is mom a world traveler? Show off all the places she’s been with a scratch-off map from Uncommon Goods. Several map options are available including a world map, USA map and iconic landmarks map.

A Celebrity Cameo

Send mom a gift she’ll never expect! With Cameo, you can send mom a real video message created just for her by her favorite actor, musician, athlete or reality TV star.

A DNA Test

Give mom the gift of knowing exactly who she is. With this DNA test from 23andMe, she’ll receive over 150 reports that include valuable information on her family’s ancestry and health history.
