I am a mom. I mean I am sure if you read this blog you already knew that. Plus, even if you don’t just by reading my blog title you most likely would be clued in.
The one day on the calendar that typically as a mom that myself and other moms should be celebrated is coming up. That’s right Mother’s Day is almost upon us yet again.
Still I would also like to think being a mom that every day is my day. But I know that being a mom is not easy or clearcut.
Yet, I know I am loved when my kids snuggle up with at the end of a long day. Or when they tell me that they love me more that anything in the world.
A mom to these two in all moments…
Those are the moments that I live for.
But not going to lie, it is also nice when they take it upon themselves to do something to symbolically show me that they love me.
That being said, I am not very good at telling my husband or my girls what to gift me with for Mother’s Day or any other holiday of sorts.
Not sure if I am the only mom, who has trouble giving gift ideas. But if you are a mom, who is similar to me or just looking to give some gift ideas to your gang, check out some Mother’s Day gift options I have compiled below:
Mother’s Day Gifts for All Types of Moms
For the mom who loves to read.
I have spoken about Book of the Month (BOTM) many times over here. As a book lover, I know I just love my subscription to this. Therefore, would highly recommend for all the moms, who also just love to read.
I also have discussed Quarterly’s YA Book Subscription service here in depth. So, couldn’t resist including it here for a wonderful book loving Mother’s Day gift idea.
For the tech savvy mom.
If you are anything like I am, then you most likely have your iPhone or mobile device bedside. This handy – iPhone or Mobile phone and/or tablet Docking/Station is the perfect bedside or desk tidy gift idea for this Mother’s Day.
Another Mother’s Day gift idea is this iPhone Case Clear Personalized Floral Case to help keep mom’s iPhone protected when in use. Trust me, I have had my fair share of iPhone worthy disasters. So, a case is a must in my humble estimation. But this case is so pretty and definitely mom approved by this mom.
For the coffee lover mom.
I admit I need that first cup of joe in the morning to get my mom day started. But to me, I need to drink it from my own fun mug. Well, this funny mom coffee mug, which says “Mommin’ Ain’t Easy” is the perfect mom’s mug.
I am also the type of mom that can’t drink my coffee black. I need coffee creamer at the very least. So, in order to mix my creamer, I need a spoon to take care of the job. I found the perfect spoon for all mom’s to mix their creamer into their own coffee with this hand stamped silver plated “Mom’s Coffee Spoon”.
For the sporty mom.
Being a work-at-home mom, I tend to wear a lot of t-shirts daily. I wear these types of shirts for all sorts of activities, including car pooling, running errands or even working out. Plus, I love t-shirts that have fun sayings on them.
This one that says, “The Playground Is My Cardio”, I truly thought could be the perfect Mother’s Day gift for so many moms out there, myself included.
For the fashion forward mom.
Even though my wardrobe tends to be more lax now that I am a mom, I still love fashion, as well as dressing up when I can. But I don’t always have time to get to stores and shop for myself. I have found two perfect ways to still be able to keep my fashion sense alive. I use both Stitch Fix and Le Tote.
Stitch Fix is a subscription based company that allows me to get personally styled by my very own personal shopper right from the luxury of my own home. I can even pin fashion ideas for my stylist to keep in mind, as well as submit a note to get a more personalized ‘Fix’. I can also keep whatever I like and send back what I don’t. Plus, you can also give a gift card for Stitch Fix to all moms on your list this Mother’s Day!
Le Tote is also subscription based, but is more of a rental company in nature. Where you can get clothes on demand to try and wear, but send back when you are done with them. Once you send back, you can get another box with new clothes for the same purposes. This one you can pick out all the items you want to try instead of being surprised like Stitch Fix.
Both are perfect for the fashion forward mom.
For the jewelry lover mom.
I also happen to love pretty and shiny things. So, not a surprise that I happen to like wearing jewelry when I do get dressed up a bit more. That said, I tend to enjoy items from Alex and Ani, such as their charm bracelets.
I was also recently turned onto Helen Ficalora.
See they have the perfect mom disk charm and necklace.
This necklace comes in sterling silver, 14K white/yellow/rose gold, too.
So, there you go just a few gift thoughts for the all the moms out there this Mother’s Day.
Are you a mom?

Cynthia says
You are one of the most INCREDIBLE moms I know! Your girls are happy AND you take some time for yourself to read. You’re *awesome*!!!
I wish you the happiest of mother’s days coming up. So neat to see all these gift ideas…alas, my mom? Oh man…she’s one of those that has everything and it’s really hard to get things for her. Perhaps…a coffee mug and spoon is just the thing. Hehe.
Sending you big hugs and I hope you have a wonderful week. I’m so grateful for you and our friendship! <3
Janine says
Aw, what can I say, but thank you my sweet and ear friend. I truly do also value our friendship always! Hugs and hope you can get your mom something here or equally amazing. Hugs and Happy Monday now!! <3

Janine says
Thanks Dara!!! 🙂
William Holland says
Bev and I don’t do Mother’s Day and Father’s Day…..it’s called being boring old people. LOL I’ll pass this along because I know so many people do get into this holiday. Thanks for the suggestions and I hope your Monday is unbelievable.
Janine says
Thank you so much for passing on to others for me. I will say with young kids, we do celebrate these two days as this excites them so. But still get why some may not. Happy Monday once again to you!! 🙂
AnnMarie John says
Those are all really great gifts and ones that moms will enjoy. I actually love Helen Ficalora jewelry. I go a necklace there for Kristal when she was graduating and she still wears it to this day. I should share this mom one with her so she can get this one for me.
Janine says
I hope you do share this with Kristal ad I am loving the one I got now. So seriously think you’d love one if you got it from your kids for Mother’s Day, too 🙂
Echo says
Well, you know I need that coffee mug and spoon, right?
I may have to get those for Mother’s Day and tell the family not to worry about gifts, haha!
Great guide, Janine!
Janine says
I know those two are so you, my friend. I hope you get them now and wishing you a very Happy Mother’s Day this upcoming weekend!! 🙂

Allie G smith says
Great suggestions Janine!
Janine says
Thanks Allie!!! 🙂
Mary says
My Mom rocks! I’ve been so busy growing my business lately I haven’t been able to shop or even make plans for Mother’s day. She is being awesome about it, allowing us to celebrate at a later date, so now I have lots more time to plan a rocking mothers day for her and get her a great present. I think she wold love that disk charm necklace. Thanks for all the ideas.
Janine says
Aw, your mom does sound like she is awesome and hope you entered the giveaway for the charm necklace from Helen Ficalora for her now, too!! 🙂
Kenya G. Johnson says
Great list! I love the one for the tech saavy mom. I need to look into Stitch Fix and LeTote. I’m going on a cruise next month and seems like a service like that would be a good fit for the occassion.
Janine says
Both LeTote and Stitch Fix could totally work for your upcoming trip. Even though LeTote is more rentals. If you like something, you can buy it at a discounted price still, too.
Diane Roark says
Janine,
I love your list of Mothe’s Day gift ideas especially the phone charger station. I could really use one of them.
I hope you have a great Mother’s Day.
Blessings,
Diane
Janine says
Thanks Diane and hope you can get a phone charger station for Mother’s Day now. Wishing you a very, Happy Mother’s Day, too!! 🙂

That docking station is fantastic! I need one. Glad I read this post because I was fresh out of ideas for gifting myself something this mother’s day 🙂 you always have the best round-ups!
Janine says
Aw, thanks Jen and happy to always share my roundups with you, too 🙂

What a precious picture of your beautiful girls. Thanks for these awesome gift ideas. I really need that coffee mug! It’s adorable. I also need to check out the book of the month. That’s brilliant. I absolutely love reading. It takes me to my happy place :).
Janine says

Leslie says
Ugh. I’m so the same with my family. I just want to get rid of things, not add them to our house, so I’m the first to suggest something like ‘peace and quiet’ as a gift. Unfortunately, that’s not very helpful. This is a great list. Thanks so much for sharing at the #happynowlinkup!
Janine says
Thanks Leslie and Happy Mother’s Day once again to you, too!!!
Christine Carter says
OMG these are the BEST gift ideas!! I want every last one of them!! I am pinning this for future use… bc I believe Mother’s Day is EVERY day. LOL
