Mother’s Day is May 9 and TDS is bringing you some unique and fun gift ideas to show mom you care. Here are 15 perfect presents to make sure your mom feels like she’s number one.

Customizable gifts

If you’re looking for unique and customizable gifts, consider the small businesses and individual creators on Etsy. From personalized bracelets, necklaces, and rings to embroidered pillows and custom portraits, there’s something for every mom. Here are a few that stand out.

Do you call your mom by a special name? Maybe you have a great memory or went on an amazing vacation together? For the jewelry lover, put what makes your mom unique into words with a personalized gold little letters necklace.

Customized throw pillows are a great gift for a mom or grandma with children in multiple states and cities. In the text box, select your fabric, size, state and cities, map ink color, and phrase if different than the one provided. The Mother’s Day puzzle sign is another great, related option.

Home gifts

Our Place Always Pan

$115 (with promo code)

While it’s pleasing to look at, the best-selling Always Pan isn’t just a cult-favorite because of its aesthetics.

When you order from the Our Place Website, save $30 with the promo code GOODTASTE30 at checkout.

Bloomsybox Subscription

Prices vary

If you can’t go wrong with flowers, how can you possibly go wrong with flowers every month? Bloomsybox offers various weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly plans that send your mom nothing but the finest farm-to-table bouquets and blooms—from $44.99 per month with shipping included. While these plans can be cancelled at any time, the website also has a stunning assortment of Mother’s Day collections guaranteed to brighten your mom’s day.

Activities with mom

As great as gadgets and gifts are, quality time is impossible to beat.

Plan a picnic. Pack a comfortable blanket and a basket or cooler full of your mom’s favorite fruits, snacks, and deserts, and head out to her favorite spot. Whether it’s a nearby park, beach, or even your backyard, it doesn’t matter. There’s something special about enjoying each other’s company in nature with some delicious food.

Plant flowers together. While sending flowers is a thoughtful gesture, getting your hands dirty together in the garden is always a fun and exciting surprise. Marigold, sunflowers, or calendula are some great flowers to plant in May.

Rent a movie. Feel-good comedies based around beautiful (and sometimes challenging) aspects of motherhood include Lady Bird (2017) and Bad Moms (2016).
