Throughout the year, our mothers are there for us – with mani/pedi dates, our favorite home-cooked meal, or even by knowing exactly what to say to make us feel better. When it comes to Christmas gifts, we want to give our mothers something special to let her know that she is appreciated. But thinking of the perfect gift is never easy, so Her Campus has come up with this Gift Guide with some thoughtful and unique ideas for your mother!
1. If you’re mother loves to cook – this Gourmet Herb Indoor Garden would be perfect for her! She can grow her own fresh herbs to put into all her signature dishes.
Miracle-Gro AeroGarden 3-Pod Indoor Garden starting at $49.47. Find it on Amazon here.
2. Mothers love to show off her kids and all the special memories she cherishes. But it is impossible to frame every picture! Instead, get your mother a digital photo frame so she can display all her cherished photos – this one has 4GB of memory and a motion sensor!
NIX 12 inch Hi-Res Digital Photo Frame for $99.99. Find it on Amazon here.
3. A classic gift for your mother is always a good book! You can’t go wrong getting her any book on The New York Times Best Seller List – like the novel “Gone Girl” by Gillian Flynn.
Find it on Amazon here.
4. Mom’s do so much every day – work, clean, cook, shop, and so much more! What better way to help your mom relax than to get her a deluxe spa basket! Start with this fabulous collection of face masks from Korres. Add items like bath salts, a lavender candle, moisturizing lotion, nail polish, or even an eye mask!
Find it on Sephora for $36 here.
5. The most thoughtful gifts are always something you make yourself! So if you’re low on cash this holiday season or want to give your mother something extra special, craft this “Mom Jar”! Decorate a mason jar however you would like and fill it with handwritten notes saying why you love her and memories you’ve shared. You can always continue to fill the jar after you’ve already given it to her!
