In addition to the Mother’s Day holiday, there’s also Christmas to consider, and a birthday you have to get creative for. Three different gifts in a year can make it hard to find something she’ll truly adore, and therefore, you may not be interested in going for broke as you look for something nice to give.
Knowing that struggle (I actually have no idea what I would like in order to share ideas with my husband — mama, here), I pulled together a roundup of lifestyle items that are great gifts for moms. Get them as the accompaniment to another small gift, grab a few options for a cool gift bag, or get one thing on here that you think is worthy of being the main event on Mother’s Day. From glassware to sleep items, plant mom essentials, and cozy creations, there’s something for every kind of mother. For less.

be rooted Greenhouse 500-Piece Puzzle
For the mom who loves a challenge (and fab representation), a colorful puzzle from this Black-owned brand is a must.
Salt may sound like an odd gift, but this is nowhere near your Morton’s. Foodie mama will love to try Smoked Salt & Pepper, Black Garlic Salt, and Black Truffle Parmesan Seasoning.
Help her swap out those cotton pillowcases for two moisture-wicking, thermal-regulating options that are buttery smooth (and said to be softer than Egyptian cotton).
For the book-loving mama, help her create a calm atmosphere for reading time with this candle, blending the scent of wood, musk and rose. Litotes is a Black-owned brand by the way!
May is for moms and better sleep—Mother’s Day and Sleep Awareness Month are the perfect reminder that every mama deserves more Zzzs. Help your fave get that with this weighted sleep mask.

Verve Culture Moroccan Beldi Glassware Set of 6
If you can’t book that trip to Morocco for your favorite mama, help her enjoy an aspect of the culture with these gorgeous Beldi glasses, known for being the perfect glassware for tea.
Whether she wants to use this handwoven gem (made in Ghana) as an art piece or simply to fan herself, it will look fabulous anywhere (in hand or on an empty wall).
