In case you didn’t already know, Mother’s Day is super soon. Now, before you run off in a panic because you forgot (again) to buy your mom, wife, friend or mother-figure a gift, don’t worry. There is still plenty of time to buy a last-minute Mother’s Day gift that she’ll totally love and actually use.
The mark of a perfect gift isn’t the amount of time you spend thinking about it or the dollar amount on the price tag. It’s the gifts that are picked specifically with the recipient in mind that mean the most — the personal gifts, the practical gifts that fill a need — that’s what moms really want.
You know your mom (or wife, friend, or mother figure) best, and you know what type of gift she deserves as a thank you. And chances are, she’d rather have something picked specifically with her in mind than a generic Mother’s Day card that thousands of other moms will get, too.
These gifts are as unique as they are affordable, and there is something for every mom on the list. The busy mom, the fashionista mom, the coffee addicted mom — this list has got them all covered. So don’t let the fact that it’s the last minute stop you from buying something she’ll truly appreciate and actually get to use this Mother’s Day.

For The Mom Who Loves To Learn New Things
Masterclass takes gifting to a whole new level with their impressive list of classes and celebrity teachers. Has your mom always wanted to learn to sing? Gift her with lessons by Christina Aguilera. Has she dreamed of being a master chef? She can learn via Gordon Ramsey.
For The Mom Who Totes Too Much Stuff
Every mom wears her purse into the ground, so gift yours a brand new one like this Livy Leather Crossbody Bag by Vince Camuto. Let’s be honest, we all could use a new handbag after having kids and hoarding snacks, wipes, toys, and other items in there for so long.
For The Empty Nester
After her fourth and youngest child moved out, writer Jennifer McGuire had just herself to tend to for the first time in 25 years. That meant it was finally time to follow through on her decades-long dream: spend four months traveling through Italy, France, and Ireland by herself. In Nest, McGuire is honest — at times painfully so — about processing the “after” part of motherhood. Mom will laugh, cry, and cringe through all the relatable moments this memoir has to offer.
For The Constantly Hand-Washing Mom
A gift that’s practical and perfect for the health conscious mama. This Burt’s Bees Hand Cream makes the perfect tiny gift that she can take with her on the go. Hand cream is a must-have these days with all the handwashing we’ve been doing, so really it’s a win-win and thoughtful gift.
For The Foodie Mom Who Doesn’t Like To Cook
It’s a safe assumption that any mom would appreciate less prep and clean-up when it comes to cooking dinner. Gobble lets you pick from an amazing selection of gourmet dishes, then ships them right to you (or your mom’s) door.
For The Busy Morning Mom
The Magic Bullet is a great gift for moms with busy morning schedules. She can make single servings fast— perfect to send to school with the kids or take for the morning commute to work.
For The Glamorous Mom

For The Mom Who Loves Homesteading
This whimsical cookbook not only provides recipes for delicious meals, but it also gives the deets on how to truly have a “hands-on home,” whether it’s cooking, preserving, home care, or personal care. What’s truly unique about this book is that everything is DIY — hence the “hands-on.” The Hands-On Home is absolutely gorgeous, and sorts everything by season, making it a treasured book in your home in addition to a reference guide.
For The Fitness-Loving Mom
Whether you get her a gift card to GNC, or you provide a physical gift — like a yoga mat, foam roller, or resistance bands — the fitness-minded mom will always think of you as she’s getting her health and fitness on. Don’t forget to remind her to hydrate with one of these awesome Hydromates.
For The Mom Who Loves A Hot Beverage In A Mug
For just $16.50 a month, the mom in your life can get brand new fresh coffee flavors delivered to her door to try from Bean Box. If mom is more of a tea person, there’s also a subscription for tea through Sips By for the same price.
