Moms do everything, especially during the holidays, so it’s important to show your appreciation.
Whether your mom is an avid traveler, a homemaker, who likes to make her space cozy, or likes to host parties, we’ve found something she’ll really benefit from, from tote bags, to candle subscriptions and cheese boards. And if your sister, friend or cousin is a new mom, we’ve found practical gifts she’ll appreciate too. Shop 15 gifts for moms below from Amazon, Nordstrom, Lululemon, Uncommon Goods, and more.
Gifts for Mom: The Homebody
- Vellabox candle subscription, starting at $12 per month
- Barefoot Dreams blankets, starting at $79
- Book of the Month subscription, starting at $60
- Eberjey pajamas, starting at $103
If your mom likes to stay at home this time of year, she’ll love cuddling up on the couch with Barefoot Dreams blankets, which have earned the seal of approval from celebrities like Chrissy Teigen, Kate Hudson and Jennifer Garner. For bookworms, give them a subscription to Book of the Month, which delivers a book of their choice by mail for just $13 to $18 a month.
Vellabox
Another great gift that keeps on giving is Vellabox, a candle subscription that you can customize based on your mom’s favorite scents. Not only will they receive a seasonal candle each month from a different artisan in pretty canvas bags, but the boxes will also contain a lifestyle item like hand cream or a wick trimmer.
All candles come in elegant brown jars, so they will fit into the aesthetic of any home, and your mom will be excited every time the package arrives on her doorstep. Subscriptions start as low as $12 per month, which is cheaper than many individual candles you can buy.
