Best Mother’s Day Gifts For Friends
Mom life can be hard but you know what makes it easier – having great friends beside you.
I have those mama friends that I can count on when I need to laugh, cry, ask for advice, or vent it out. They are there for me.
Since I rely on them so much, I love getting them something special for Mother’s Day, and other special days throughout the year to thank them.
And I know I am their person too because they send me gifts as well.
I hope you are blessed enough to have your own group of friends to see you through it all!
Want one more mama friend, leave me a comment below. With 4 kids, I love having as much support as I can get.
Traditional Mother's Day Gifts
1. Mother's Day Card
To be honest, I am completely thrilled when I get a card for anything.
It means someone took time out of their day to do something special for me.
Your friend will be just as happy as me to get a Mother’s Day card like this.
I love Snoopy!
2. Flowers
If nothing else on this list jumps out at you for the perfect Mother’s Day gift for your friend, go with flowers. It doesn’t even have to be a large number of flowers; it is the thought that counts.
So, support your local flower shop or even try Walmart.
3. Chocolates
Is anyone else out there a chocoholic besides me?
I love chocolates, and I mean good dark chocolates!
These chocolates are always a great treat and you can give them for all sorts of special occasions.
Mother's Day Gifts
Pampering
4. Shower Steamers
If your friend is like most moms out there, she doesn’t have a ton of time to spend on herself.
Multitasking is essential!
These shower steamers are a great way for her to get some pampering in while she is showering.
I like using them when I know I am going to shave my legs since that shower will take a bit longer. Really get the full effect.
5. Bath Bombs
Is your friend lucky enough to have time for baths? Or does she just love them so much?
6. Burt's Bees Gift Set
Most women want their skin to look its best with summer right around the corner.
This gift set will help with that since it includes a little something for every skin part of your body.
Burt’s Bees products are so good!
7. Nail Polish
Let your friend pamper herself even further with some amazing nail polish.
I love Essie so much that I have since gotten rid of all my other brands of polish.
However, you do have to be careful when choosing colors though. I like my polish to be opaque but I grabbed a sheer color by mistake.
Essie has a Gel Top Coat that helps to keep the polish longer and adds a nice shine.
8. Candle
Women love to have their homes smell wonderful and this line of candles has so many wonderful scents to choose from.

Drinks and Entertaining
9. Wine Tumbler
This wine tumbler is delightful. It is so great since it has a cover!
10. Electric Wine Opener
And if you want to go with a wine theme, your friend will be so excited with this electric wine opener along with a bottle of wine.
So good!
My aunt introduced it to me, and I reach for it over the manual opener I have every time.
11. Yeti Tumbler
The Yeti Tumbler is the best gift my husband brought home from his work. Literally didn’t know what I was missing.
I love this thing so much and use it for my coffee every single day. And your friend is going to love it too!
Bye bye to having to reheat my coffee.
You know it takes a mom forever to drink her coffee with kids running around.
That is unless your friend gets up at the butt crack of dawn. I do get up that early but I don't enjoy it!
There are so many colors to choose from that I know you will pick the right one for your friend.
12. Water Bottle
Last year, my friend was telling me how she was on the hunt for the perfect water bottle.
And I was like girl, I got you!
I got her this Hydro Flask water bottle but we both know that the Stanley Quencher is also dynamite.
13. Charcuterie Board
Is your friend the entertainer?
I have one friend who does a phenomenal job at putting out a massive and delicious spread of food at her parties.
This charcuterie board was the perfect gift for her last Christmas.
It will make the best addition when your friend hosts the next girls’ night.
Mother's Day Gifts
Relaxing
14. Tea Gift Set
Maybe your friend is a tea drinker.
She has to try this tea sampler pack.
My sister loves tea and said it was so nice to try some new flavors.
15. Coffee
Or maybe your friend is a coffee drinker, like me. Most women I know are coffee lovers!
Stock her up on her favorite flavor of coffee if you know it. If you don’t give her a supply of your favorite coffee.
16. Blanket
Now that you have her tea or coffee, grab this soft and comfy blanket from UGG.
Best part - it is machine washable!
I have this blanket and it is the one I reach for over all the others we have.
17. Book
Ok, coffee or tea – check, snuggly blanket – check, now top it off with a great book. Your mama friend is going to love this pairing of gifts.
Mother's Day Gifts
Getting Pretty
18. Jewelry
If your friend is anything like me, she likes to switch up her jewelry.
My favorite jewelry store is hands down Shane Co. They have the best quality and selection.
19. Trinket Dish
With all this new jewelry, your friend is going to need a beautiful place to store it when she isn’t wearing it.
This dish is beautiful and is small enough that it can fit on her vanity or dresser.
Believe me, she will think of you often when she puts on or takes off her jewelry.
20. Willow Tree Friendship Box
If your friend has any Willow Tree items, she might like this little box better to hold her jewelry.
I only have 1 Willow Tree figure but I am very impressed by the quality of it.
Mother's Day Gifts
Outside
21. Wind Chime
Since Mother's Day is in the spring, you can get something outdoorsy for your friend.
I have a wind chime and love listening to it.
My kids gave it to me for Mother’s Day a few years ago.
Your friend will enjoy the gentle music it creates as much as I do.
22. Garden Statues
Does your friend love to garden? You can help her add some whimsy to her flower garden by getting her a garden statue or 2.
I love the little girl and boy about to smooch, but I know my sister would love the gnome statue. They are both great options.
23. Picnic Blanket
Get your friend a picnic blanket so she can spend some time outside making memories with her kids.
Now that my kids are old enough to not wander off, we have been doing more picnics during the summer.
There are 6 of us, and the kids just keep on growing so we went with the biggest one.
You can choose other colors and sizes.
This blanket is amazing since it folds down to pretty small to carry.
24. Gift Card
If you think your friend has all of the gift ideas above, or you know they just don’t suit her, go for the gift card option.
These are my favorite places to get gift cards.
Favorite Coffee Shop
Amazon
Target
A Great Restaurant
