24
For the Proud Mom

TheSunnyHunnyBee

If there’s one thing moms love, it’s showing off their kids. This personalized throw pillow cover displays the names of all of her babies, keeping the whole gang close together like old times.

25
Her Dream Home

For Lazy Mornings
Short White Robe
Weezie

How can something be so cozy and also light as air? Weezie’s Short Robe is exactly that. Our editor says that it's the perfect thing to wear for lounging around in the warmer months because it's breathable and not heavy at all.

This plush, short-sleeve, white robe features two deep pockets, and you can choose between six contrasting piping colors for a little flair. Also, the tie is attached so it won't go missing — genius! And since it's a Mother's Day gift, you should totally go the extra mile and monogram the robe for $15 more.

33
Instant Blowout

Birds of a Feather
Bird Nest Necklace
MillstoneAccessories

It’s been a long time since you’ve left the nest, but she’ll always be your mama bird.

37
Not-So Cookie-Cutter Gift
Custom Pet Portrait Cookie Cutter
Cookillu

Mom would never play favorites amongst her children … unless we’re also counting her fur baby.

This hilarious Mother’s Day gift is a 3-D-printed, custom cookie cutter made in the shape of her pet’s face. We sense a lot of cookie care packages in your future.

38
EVOO-Obsessed
Original Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Kosterina

Mix up your go-to bottle for gifting this year and opt for Kosterina's Extra-Virgin Olive Oil for Mother's Day. According to our editor, it is one of the most drinkably good olive oils there is.

Made from olives that were cold-pressed in the Peloponesse region of Greece, this olive oil has a lightly floral and fresh aroma, and the taste is light, earthy, and citrusy. She'll want to savor every drop of it with some delicious crusty bread.

39

41
For Her Beauty Rest

42
Made in the Shade

43
Get the Party Started
Sony SRS-XB13 Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker

44
For the Ultra Organized
Pull Out Drawer Cabinet Organizer
HOLDN’ STORAGE

45
The Sound of Silence
Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones
Soundcore

Sometimes the best Mother’s Day gift of all is just a little peace and quiet. Bring Mom closer to a transcendent state of quietude by giving her these incredible noise-canceling Soundcore headphones. They’ve made it to our tech editor’s list because of their beautiful design, budget-friendly price, comfortability, and long-lasting battery life.

You can order this style in black, blue, or pink, and they'll come with a convenient travel case. But if Mom is more of a wireless earbud fan, our in-depth guide should point you in the right direction.

46
Soothe Her Sore Legs
Knee-High Compression Socks
Comrad 

These cultish compression socks offer the ultimate stylish solution for soothing tired calves and swollen feet.

In our trial with them, we found that their breathable fabric and extra support in the heel and toes make them super comfy for prolonged stretches of sitting. But they can also offer sweet relief for those who spend a lot of time on their feet.

47
For the Caffeine Queen
‘If Found In Microwave Please Return To Mom’ Mug
StagandPeachCo

Need we say more? Just make sure you heat this ceramic mug for an extra 30 seconds before returning it to Mom.

48
For the Sewing Sophisticate
Wooden Sewing Basket With Sewing Kit Accessories
IsotoGifts

At long last, all of her sewing supplies can live in one neat and organized place.

This sewing box has a beautiful, classic look and a perfectly compartmentalized interior for holding bits and bobbins. Even better, it comes fully stocked with all of the supplies she needs.

49
For the Budding Artist
Orange Blossom Paint by the Number Kit
CatePaperCo

Remember how proud she was of all your childhood art projects? Now it’s Mom’s turn to show off her artistic skills with an intuitive painting kit that'll help her create her own masterpiece.

Simply match the numbered paint colors to the corresponding spot on the template-printed canvas for a gorgeous piece worthy of putting on the fridge.

50
For the Clean Freak
Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum
iRobot

The iRobot Roomba is here to do the vacuuming for her. With a three-stage cleaning system, the Roomba 675 can handle dust, hair, and larger pieces of dirt.

A side brush is also on board for reaching edges and corners. She can even schedule cleanings in advance.

51
A Gardener's BFF
10 Piece Gardening Tools Set
INNO STAGE
Now 26% off

It's true: Gardeners aren't always the best at taking a break in the middle of their work, but to help prevent her from collapsing with exhaustion after a day full of deadheading, spring for this garden stool as a Mother's Day gift.

This set not only provides a convenient foldable seat for her to rest awhile, but it also includes a variety of hand tools like pruning shears, a rake, and a garden sprayer. She'll have all the necessities to grow the garden of her dreams all in one place.

52
For the Queen's Bed
Eucalyptus Sheet Set
Sijo

There are those who love crisp, starched bed sheets, and then there are those who prefer a soft and silky feel. If your mom is in the former category, she'll probably love the percale sheets from 10 Grove or Parachute, but if she's not, gift her Sijo's Eucalyptus Set, stat.

They're buttery-soft with a cooling, sateen-like sheen, while also having enough warmth to keep her cozy on cold nights (or in a bedroom with the AC cranked). It's true that these sheets aren't cheap, and they don't feel that way, either.

53
For the Outdoorsy Mom
Garden Clogs
Hunter

Good garden shoes are designed to be basically indestructible, but if the tread and lining are completely worn out on her trusty decade-old pair, we say it's time to treat her to a well-deserved upgrade.

Hunter's Garden Clogs have the same rubber exterior as their iconic rain boots but are lined with neoprene to help keep feet warm and dry. Reviewers tout that they're easy to slip on and off, and that they look cute enough to wear out and about. Bet she'd never say that about her old pair.

54
Crispy Snacks for Days
Air Fryer Max XL
COSORI

There are a lot of really great air fryers out there, but we think this one from COSORI is the best for Mother’s Day gifting.

This 5.8-quart air fryer features an easy-to-read LED touchscreen with 11 preset cooking functions, including frozen foods, meats, vegetables, and even french fries. Of course, she can enter her desired custom temperature as well.

Many reviewers who “hate cooking” love using this device because it pretty much does all of the hard work with the press of a button. Plus, it looks great on the countertop.

55
Caddy for a Queen
Luxury Bathtub Caddy Tray
Royal Craft Wood

It simply isn't Mother's Day without gifting her the invitation to relax and take the night off. This extendable bamboo bathtub caddy holds anything that she wants to have within an arm's reach (like her iPad, Kindle, or a glass of wine) while enjoying a luxurious soak.

56
Simplify Her Spice Rack
Gift Set
FinaMill

Rather than buying separate spice mills or a single spice grinder that she'll have to clean out between each use, the editor-favorite FinaMill allows her to use the same grinder with multiple pods containing whole spices without any cross-contamination.

This battery-operated grinder only has one coarseness setting, but it comes with three grind pods that can be endlessly refilled with her favorite spices. For those who like a medley of fresh-ground spices in each dish, it's a super clever solution.

57
Make Her Summer Epic
Steel Propane Fire Pit
Endless Summer

Her backyard will become 100% more awesome with the addition of this simple and streamlined, top-rated fire pit. At 2 feet high and 30 inches wide, it's about the size of a side table, so it won't dominate her outdoor space.

And best of all, she doesn't have to do any work to enjoy it on warm summer nights besides turning on the propane tank inside and hitting the switch.

58
Jetsetter-Worthy
Five-Piece Packing Cube Set
CALPAK

If her long-delayed trips are finally back on, Mom will definitely want to keep her suitcase organized in style. These packing cubes make it super easy. The five-piece set has all different sizes for clothes, accessories, toiletries, and more.

59
Words to Remember
Custom Handwriting Necklace
CentimeGift

Make your gift exceptionally personal. Once she puts on this engraved necklace, she’ll never want to take it off. Your short, handwritten message will be embossed on a silver, rose, or gold necklace.

60
