Mother’s Day 2022 Gift Ideas That She’ll Actually Love

May 1, 2020

You’re here because you’re looking for Mother’s Day 2022 Gift Ideas.

Mother’s Day is quickly approaching, May 8th to be exact! I’ve been thinking of the perfect Mother’s Day gift ideas for all the mamas in my life.  It’s hard coming up with ideas especially when you have multiple people to shop for. Also, women are picky in general (I know I am).

I love a good Mother’s Day gift that has actually had some thought put into it. There are so many gift ideas out there that make me scratch my head and think umm NO WAY. You want to buy mama something useful, not something she’s going to hide in the closet and only bring out when you come over for a visit. Also, I don’t think it’s necessary to spend an arm and a leg when it comes to

Here is my list of Mother’s Day 2022 gift ideas that she’ll actually love.

Mother’s Day 2022 Gift Ideas: Plants

Plants is a great Mother’s Day 2022 gift idea because if taken care of properly, they can last years. I’ve been learning throughout the last couple of years how to properly take care of plants (I’m still working on it haha). Plants have now become one of my favorite gifts.

I was gifted a beautiful snake plant for my first Mother’s Day from my sister, and it’s still standing strong (it’s one of the easier plants to take care of).

Some other low-maintenance plants that are easy to take care of:

  • Aloe
  • Spider plant
  • Peace lily
  • Succulents
  • Cactus

So if you’re stuck on an idea, grab a plant or two. I would also give instructions on how to care for the plant as well. I feel like that’s an important part of gifting a plant, so the recipient knows how much water and sunlight the plant will need.

Mother’s Day 2022 Gift Ideas: Gift Card to Her Favourite Restaurant

Mother's Day 2022 Gift Ideas: Restaurant Gift Card

A Restaurant gift card is a great Mother’s Day 2022 gift idea, because who doesn’t love to eat at their favourite restaurant?!.

Purchasing restaurant gift cards also help local businesses as well, so it’s a win-win situation. Find out mama’s favorite restaurant and purchase a gift card for her to enjoy when the time is right.

I always love to check Google to see what the trendy and happening restaurants are. Or better yet, figure out what her favourite cuisine is and do some research on the best restaurants according to her taste.

 

Mother’s Day 2022 Gift Ideas: Gift Card to Her Favourite Store

You should add this to the top of your Mother’s Day 2022 Gift Ideas.

I mean who doesn’t want a gift card to their favourite clothing stores? New clothes are always a vibe!

This has to be one of my favorite gifts. I like a good surprise here and there, but I’m very picky with my style, so a gift card is perfect because it lets me choose the gift myself.

This is the perfect Mother’s Day 2022 gift idea for all the picky mamas out there. I like to change up my wardrobe every season, so I love gift cards.  I love keeping them when there’s a good sale and I can get more bang for my buck.

If clothing isn’t her thing, you can always give a gift card to her favorite home and decor store, shoe store, or any store that she finds interest in.

 

 

Our Place Always Pan

 

If my husband is reading this, this is on my list of things that I really want.  The Always Pan is absolutely stunning and so versatile. It’s the perfect addition to add to that special mama’s kitchen.

This pan is designed to replace 8 traditional pieces of cookware, so it’s definitely worth the money in my opinion. The Always Pan replaces your fry pan, saute pan, steamer, skillet, saucier, saucepan, non-stick pan, spatula, and spoon rest.

With the Always Pan you can braise, sear, steam, strain, saute, fry, boil, serve, store – you get the picture. The perfect gift for the mama that loves to cook.

 

MAKEUP AND/OR SKINCARE PRODUCTS

Makeup & Skincare for Mothers Day

I don’t know any mom that doesn’t love makeup and skincare products. I’ve become a lover of all things skincare lately, so personally, that would be on the top of my list.

Amazon has a lot of amazing makeup and skincare products and thousands of reviews you can read to make sure the product is good.

Some of my favorite products that I’ve purchased from Amazon lately are:

  • TruSkin Vitamin C Serum – brightens and firms the skin & gets rid of dark spots and sunspots
  • Adofect Gold Eye Masks – I love these. They really helped with the dark under-eye circles I got after my son was born.
  • Bio-Oil – Perfect for reducing scars and stretch marks
  • Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Salicylic Acid Exfoliant – This is a staple in my skincare routine its perfect for reducing blackheads and large pores. I use this every night.
  • Green Quartz Jade Roller – I recently just purchased this and I love it! It’s perfect for helping to get serums and creams deep into the skin while giving your face a nice massage at the same time. Highly recommended!
  • Kora Organics Turmeric Moisturizer: This is probably the best moisturizer I’ve used in a long time. It’s super hydrating and is the best moisturizer to wear before applying makeup! obssessed.

You can always check out Sephora as well. I love their gift section that includes different bundles of skincare and makeup products.

SUBSCRIPTION TO FAB FIT FUN OR AN ALTERNATIVE

I love Fab Fit Fun because you get things you would most likely never purchase, and I’ve found some of my favorite makeup and skincare products from this box.

When you purchase a subscription, they’ll send you a box for every season. The products in the box range from makeup, skincare, house décor, dinnerware & more.

The cool thing about these box subscriptions is that it lasts all year, so mom will be getting a gift 4 times in a year. with awesome products.

I tried out Fab Fit Fun for a year and I loved everything I received. It was so fun receiving new boxes every few months and trying new products.

 

CHARCUTERIE BOARD WITH ALL THE FIXINGS

Who doesn’t love a charcuterie board? Especially with summer rolling around, it’s the perfect gift for all the foodie mamas out there.

Purchase a charcuterie board, I love this one from Amazon. Buy all of the items for the charcuterie board and arrange it whichever way you like.

I love going on Pinterest for inspo when arranging a charcuterie board, there are so many different options so be creative!

Items usually on a charcuterie board are:

  • Cured meats
  • Cheese
  • Olives
  • Nuts
  • Dried fruit
  • Crackers and/or bread
  • Jelly or jam
  • Fruit
  • Dips

I love making these because you can customize them any way you want, and there is always something for everyone. So if there are vegetarian or gluten-free mamas out there you can always add or take things out to suit their dietary needs.

PHONE COVER

Iphone case for mothers day

I’m the type of person that gets bored of things VERY fast. Phone covers, for example, I buy one and then 2 weeks later I’m sick of it and want another one. I’m sure there are a few mamas out there who are the same.

Lumee phone cases are awesome. The front lights up so selfies come out brighter and more clear. Perfect for social media moms, or blogging moms who are using their phones more. Amazon has so many options when it comes to phone cases and they’re also pretty inexpensive compared to the other ones out there.

APPLE WATCH OR ANOTHER FITNESS TRACKER

Apple watch mothers day gift

I love my Apple watch. If you’ve read my previous post on how I’ve lost my postpartum weight, I mention that it wouldn’t have been possible without my Apple watch.   It’s been such a motivation for me, and I honestly can’t live without it.

If she doesn’t have an apple phone, there are so many other options to choose from that work just as well. Some of my favorites are:

This is a gift she’ll love and it’ll help her stay motivated and on track with her fitness goals!

 

WINE & WINE GLASSES

wine glasses for mothers day

I love a nice wine glass. I feel like wine tastes so much better when you’re drinking it out of a nice glass. This is a great Mother’s Day gift idea for the mama that loves wine (I don’t know any mama that doesn’t).

These ones are my favorite. The shape is different, they’re dainty and perfect for both red and white wine.

Pair the wine glasses with a lovely bottle or two of mama’s favorite wine. If you’re stuck on what kind of wine to buy, check out this list.

 

PAJAMAS/LOUNGEWEAR

Pajamas for mothers day

A girl can never have too many pajamas or loungewear. Especially now that we’re all social distancing and spending more time at home, I think pajamas/loungewear are the PERFECT Mother’s Day gift.

These days I’m in pajamas about 85% of the time, I’m sure many other mothers out there are in the same boat.  so this would be the perfect gift.

Pair them with a cute pair of slippers, and you’ve got the perfect mother’s day gift for that quarantining mama.

Some of my favorite stores for cute & chic pajamas and loungewear are:

DYSON HAIR DRYER

Dyson Blow D

If you’re looking to splurge on a Mother’s Day gift, this is definitely my favorite. This blowdryer is literally one of the best products I’ve ever come across.

This is definitely something I would splurge on because it’s something women use almost every single day. It’s especially perfect for moms because the drying time is way less than regular blow dryers, giving them more time to spend on other things (like laundry).

I always get lazy when it comes to doing my hair because I hate blowdrying. I’ve tried this blow dryer before and it’s SO GOOD. (hopefully my husband reads this post haha).

ROOMBA

Roomba mothers day gift

Another product that’ll give mama extra time to do other things. Kids make a lot of mess.  My son loves to throw his food around during every meal so we always have to sweep up the floors once he’s done eating. I used to find this so time-consuming and felt like half my day was spent cleaning the floors.

The Roomba has saved me from sweeping multiple times a day. It’s so easy to use and actually remembers your floor plan and is also programmed to not fall down the stairs. I l like to turn mine on at night, when Milan is napping, or when we leave the house (Milan’s scared of it so we turn it on when he’s not around). 

This has been one of my favorite purchases. It’s great for picking up dust and dirt under beds and sofas, which is hard to do otherwise. It’s a real time saver and a perfect Mother’s Day gift.

TEA & TEA HOLDER

tea and tea holder mothers day

A girl can never have enough tea. I never thought something like tea would excite me, but here I am…getting excited about tea.

This is a good Mother’s Day gift for the mama that loves tea.  There are so many flavors and brands out there, with so many different health benefits too. I’ve become a lover of tea over the last few years and drink it multiple times a day. I love green tea, lemon and ginger tea, and turmeric tea.

Some of my favorite brands are:

A nice little gift to go with tea would be a tea holder. I’ve actually ordered this one for myself from Amazon. It keeps teas nice and organized and saves up space in your kitchen cabinets or pantry.

GARDENING SUPPLIES

gardening supplies for mothers day

Whether it’s a big bag of soil, plants, seeds, or gardening tools, I think this is a perfect gift for moms who love gardening or want to start a garden.

Because of social distancing and being at home more, it’s the perfect time to start a garden. Where I live, a lot of the home and garden stores are still open to the public, so it won’t be difficult to get your hands on gardening supplies.

You can put together a basket of gardening goodies for that special mama in your life.  This 12 piece garden toolset is the perfect Mother’s Day gift for that gardening-loving mama.

I hope this list helps you in deciding the perfect Mother’s Day gift for all the mothers in your life. It can get hard at times especially when you have multiple people to purchase for. Everyone has different styles and tastes, and you want to make sure your gift is useful.

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Mother’s Day, spending it with all the people you love (even if it’s through video call).

Excited to spend my second Mother’s Day with my family and enjoy at home #SocialDistanceStyles.

    Love the list. I think wine glasses are a really nice touch. A bottle or two in a basket will seal the deal beautifully.
