Mother's Day Gift Guide 2021

April 22, 2021

You can see our bathroom reveal here! My dress is linked below, but here is my apple watch band, which would also make a great gift!

Mother's Day is May 9th (just over 2 weeks away) and while my favorite gifts are quality time (last year I asked that we all go on a hike together and it was the best gift!), I also love giving gifts and receiving gifts that are thoughtful. Below, I gathered up 16 gift ideas that I own and love, or are on my wishlist, or I am gifting to a woman I love or admire for the upcoming holiday!

1. Copper Bird Feeder $78 My mom is a big time bird watcher (and she's converted me!). Every other morning, she goes out and feeds the birds and this beautiful bird feeder would be such an upgrade.
2. Mother's Day Card $5 Don't wait to tell her how much she means or that lesson you learned from her.
3. Solid Gold Letter Ring $109 This ring is on my wish list! I'd love the initials of my girls.
4. Live Beautiful Coffee Table Book $30 I asked everyone in the office if a coffee table book is a good gift (or if I just LOVE a receiving a coffee table book myself) and turns out, everyone loves it.
5. Weekender Bag $48 My favorite leather weekender bag (throw in a night away!)
6. Floral Smocked Dress $159 (60% off with code SPREE) My new favorite dress that's light and feminine and looks good with sneakers.
7. Retinol Reform $88 The product that's removing my dark spots and wrinkles and dullness overnight 3 times a week!
8. Jade Gua Sha Facial Tool Set $29 Have you started Guasha-ing?! I've noticed a difference in puffiness immediately but it has so many other benefits, too! I'm into it!
9. Sherpa Slippers $60 (on sale for $49) Really big possibility she's gonna want to wear these out, too!
10. Dae Prickly Pear Hair Oil $36
11. Vanity Planet Facial Steamer $43 (55% off with code JULIAMARCUM) My favorite spa-like Sunday routine. It feels. so. good.
12. Always Pan $145 ($115 with code GOODTASTE30)
13. Athleta Leggings $89 It's time she has an amazing pair of black leggings--she wears them every day, right?!
14. Agate Frame $49 To frame a picture of three generations
15. Opal Pebble Ice Maker $549 Wish list item!!
16. Coco & Eve Self Tanner Mousse Kit $43 My favorite FAVORITE self tanner (I wear Dark) that smells great and is super moisturizing.

More gifts for her right here!

  1. Great list, minus the Always Pan - that is on EVERYONE's list. Gave in to the hype and bought it for my husband for Christmas and it's wildly overrated. Already not non-stick and has marks that don't come off. Sure it looks nice on the outside but if you cook at all it will stain, quickly. There are far better options out there...

My Storage Hack for Organizing Christmas Decorations

Every year when I pack up the decorations after Christmas, I collect all of the garlands together in one box, I get all the candlesticks together in another box, and all my nativity sets go into their own box. We label the boxes "garlands," "candles," "nativity sets,"...which seems great until you remember that you have […]

Cranberry-Glazed Ham

What do you make for Christmas dinner? Sometimes we'll do a prime rib or a roast turkey, but this year, I'm going all out with a Christmas ham that just looks festive. For this recipe, I made a cranberry-orange glaze with some warm winter spices that takes this ham to the next level. Oh and […]

Product Test: Portable Phone Chargers

Raise your hand if you panic when your phone's low battery notification turns on? (Just me??) There's nothing worse when I'm out on a fun holiday outing taking video memories of my family, and I see that red light. Or I'm traveling and stuck in the airport on a layover...it gives me anxiety! I've tried […]
