This year, I wanted to create a Mother’s Day gift guide filled with beautiful, thoughtful ideas that feel joyful to give—and even more joyful to receive. These beautiful Mother’s Day gift ideas are all under $50 and perfect for the moms, grandmas, sisters, friends, and mother figures who inspire us every day with their love and grace.
Whether you’re shopping for someone who loves to cook, keeps a charming home, lights a new candle every season, or finds delight in little details—this list was made with her in mind. And if that description sounds a little like you too, then treat yourself!
Everything I included is sweet, charming, and something I’d love to give or receive. I leaned into that cottage-meets-coastal style I always come back to—full of florals, woven textures, cheerful patterns, and little luxuries.
These beautiful Mother’s Day gift ideas are all under $50!

There’s something about giving a gift that speaks to who someone is—not just what they do. And that’s what I love most about this guide. These aren’t just pretty things. They’re “I thought of you” things.
I hope you found a little inspiration for the women you’re celebrating (or yourself!). Mother’s Day is such a lovely reminder to slow down and honor the women who make life more beautiful every day.
With love,
Desiree 🤍
