Mother's day is such a special day! It's a day to spoil the ones who do so much for us and let them know just how much we love them!! Personally, my mom and I are so close. I also been blessed to have an amazing mother-in-law who I adore. In today's post, I came up with 15 ideas that I love and think you'll find super helpful when shopping for your mom or MIL too.

Below you can click the image or the highlighted title to shop the items!!

1. What I Love About You By Me Journal: HOW CUTE?! This is the perfect gift to let your mom know just how much you love her! Its a customizable journal where you fill in the blanks of the journal and then give it as a gift!!

2. Plush Robe: Okay, doesn't this just look like the softest robe EVER?! It is an amazon's best seller and known for its softness and great quality. I'm thinkin your mama will fall in love with how soft and cozy this bathrobe is and it will definitely have her wishing she could stay home and wear it all day!

3. Beverage Warmer & Mug Set: Does your mom love her coffee, hot chocolate or tea? This is the neatest thing!! It's perfect for keeping your beverages warm all day. This is FDA-approved and food-grade 304 stainless steel 17oz mug is built with a cool-touch handle, a silicone slip-resistant sleeve, and a stylish brushed finish. Flat mug bottom makes full contact with the warming plate to keep your coffee cozy. 

4. Electric Heated Foot Messager: How about getting your mom an at home foot messager...sounds like the best gift to me haha! If you click on the link you can read all the benefits that it can do, plus it has great reviews 🙂  

5. Skincare Lovers! Calling all the mommmas who love their skincare! This Drunk Elephant Vitamin C day cream won 2018 Allure best of beauty! It works well for all skin types. It helps with uneven skin tone loss of firmness and elasticity, dullness and uneven texture.

6. Spaced Name Choker Necklace: You've most likely seen these necklaces trending the last few months! I think they are such a thoughtful and personalized gift! 

7. Wifi Digital Photo Frame 18': I LOVE this because your mom can display a number of her favorite photos. You could personalize it by adding in some of your photos together!

8. Essential Oil Diffuser: I know candles tend to be a popular gift. However, most candles do have harmful chemicals in them that aren't good to inhale. Essential oils are the new up and coming. I have personally switched over to it and its great! They aren't expensive and you can find therapeutic essential oils that are great for you to smell!

9. Barefoot Dreams Blanket: These are hands.down.the.best.blankets...to get and receive! They sell out every year on Nordstrom but I was able to find them on Amazon for a great deal for ya'll! They hold up really well through washes so you won't wanna miss out on this cozy deal!

10. Jesus Call by Sarah Young Devotional: One of my favorite women in my life got me this book a couple of years ago. I have read it and re-read it and shared it with others since them. It is one of my favorite books to open up each morning, the daily devotionals are always full of grace + truth.

11. Jewelry Cleaner: Okay ya'll. This may be kinda random but its one of my FAVORITES! This is great for the moms who wear jewelry often- they will LOVE this gift. 

12. Personalized Notebook That's Customizable: This is a great gift especially because of how customizable they are! You can choose a notebook, calendar, or address book and there are so many prints to choose from!

13. Kendra Scott Bracelet: This is the friendship bracelet and I LOVE IT! Kendra Scott has such beautiful quality jewelry and you're mom or MIL will be sure to love this sparkle!

14. Vanity Mirror: Okay, how cute?! I love that it has a magnifying mirror on the left side. If your mom or MIL loves makeup she'll for sure love this mirror to use when she applies her makeup or gets ready!

15. Jo Malone Perfume: This is like the top rated perfume at Sephora!! SO many great reviews. If your mom or MIL likes the smell of peonies this may just be the PERFECT gift! 

I truly appreciate y'all reading these, and I hope they are helpful to you!
