It’s almost Mother’s Day!! The perfect time to get spoiled or spoil your sweet mom (or both!). To help out all of those anyone buying you a gift, here is my annual Mother’s Day Gift guide for 2024!
I’m in the camp of it’s better to ask for what you want than be disappointed your loved ones didn’t read your mind. Send this post to the gift-givers in your life and tell them exactly what you want!
And also, don’t be ashamed to buy a little something for yourself AND ask for these items. 😉
Treat yourself, mamas. You deserve it!
As usual, a lot of the items in this guide are ones I know, love and have personally. A few others are ones that are on my wishlist or I know the moms in my life would love!
You can shop in two ways: look through this quick table, or read more below to check out my thoughts on each product to get a bit more insight.

Plants are a mom’s best friend! It’s one dependent that can’t talk back, only needs to be fed once a week and does what it’s supposed to do (clean the air, look pretty, reduce stress) without being asked!
Pick up a snake plant from The Sill for the newbie plant mom, a subscription box from Horti for the mama who is looking to create a jungle in your home (at a reasonable pace) or a fiddle leaf fig for a more experienced plant mom!
