What are the best and also unique gifts for Mom? Mother’s Day is coming up and as a mother myself I feel as though I can expertly answer this question.
First, let me say I truly believe the best gifts are the most heartfelt ones.
But what if you want to actually buy unique gifts for moms or the special women in your life (sister, Grandmom, Aunt, Godmother, friend) and you don’t know where to start…
I have a variety of great gift ideas to share with you. Even better is that there are meaningful gifts for mom to fit a wide range of budgets.

What is the best gift for Mothers?
Last year my kids surprised me with homemade cards that had the sweetest, kindest words. I carry them in my purse each day and they are what I call priceless gifts.
Of course I would never turn down an opportunity to travel, especially on a romantic weekend getaway, some wanderlust inspired books, a new pair of Tieks, Frye boots, a cute and cozy scarf or even some beauty essentials.
But great gifts for Mom are the ones that really make her feel special.
