We get it—shopping for mom is hard. Mother’s Day falls on May 11 this year, and picking out the perfect present can be daunting.
As a new mom myself, I can confirm that some “me time” makes a great gift for young parents. But for moms with older children, grandmothers and mom-like figures entering life’s next chapter, there are so many options. Of course, you can’t go wrong with the classics, like a fresh flower delivery or a quality gift basket. But if you want something more personal, try a gift that’s as pretty as it is practical.
I scoured the internet and found a bunch of beautiful gift options at Coldwater Creek. The brand is known for its quality-crafted home goods and apparel made with simple, artisan designs. It’s the perfect place to shop for any mom who loves a charming, nature-inspired aesthetic. From adorable strawberry-shaped bowls for the baker to floral ceramic mugs for the coffee lover, she’ll adore these hand-picked Mother’s Day gifts.
Strawberries, cherries, lemons, oh my! Fruity designs are in this summer, and these hand-painted measuring cups make a sweet, fun gift for any baking enthusiast. Each ceramic cup is shaped like a strawberry and holds wet and dry ingredients. The set includes four total with measurements of one cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup and 1/4 cup.
Pair the measuring cups above with this multi-hued strawberry bowl. The fair-trade stoneware bowl is perfect for fruit and summer salads. It’s another hand-painted item from Coldwater Creek and makes a great gift for the mom who likes to enjoy a shared meal out on the patio.
If you’re shopping for someone who loves weekend trips to the farmers market, this durable reusable bag will hold all their fresh finds. Each bag has a fun floral print and rolls into a convenient matching zip pouch. An attached carabiner ensures the bag is nearby when needed. Plus, it’s machine washable, in case there’s a leak or spill.
These decorative towels feature fresh-picked designs. Each embroidered towel is embellished with French knots, creating raised, touchable florals. The pretty, lightweight towels are durable and will last mom many summer parties to come.
If the mom in your life loves to host whimsical garden dinners, these floral napkin rings will be the perfect addition to her outdoor table. Each one is handmade by women artisans in Nepal with New Zealand wool. The wool is super soft, felted and finished with eco-friendly dyes.
Splurge a little on mom this Mother’s Day with a mini leather crossbody by Frye. This trendy bag is made of brown, supple leather and includes plenty of pockets for the ultimate organizer. The adjustable strap means it can be worn crossbody or on the shoulder, and the magnetic closure makes getting into it on the go super easy.
If you’re not strawberry-ed out (and you don’t think mom will be either), this set of strawberry-shaped candles might catch your eye. These adorable, handmade candles are perfect for celebrations and backyard parties. They’re unscented and measure about two inches tall—just a little bigger than your typical strawberry!
Give her the gift of fashionable sun protection with this hand-crocheted hat. It’s wide enough to relax by the pool on summer vacation and light enough to work in the garden. It’s finished with a black linen bow and a sweatband inside the brim to help beat the heat on those especially warm days.
These bright, bold coasters are handmade from recycled saris, so each set will be a unique, one-of-a-kind mix of patterns. They’re lightweight and cotton-filled, so they won’t scratch surfaces either. This set of four coasters will add a fun pop of color to any table setting or backyard tea time.
What coffee lover doesn’t appreciate a hand-painted ceramic mug? Each of these Coldwater Creek mugs has an organic shape and a different flower design. Plus, each is finished with a flower thumb rest on the handle for added style and comfort. Mom will be able to set her Keurig to brew a full 12 ounces with this mug and still have room for cream—this mug holds 17 ounces of morning brew.
We love this stunning beehive wall planter, and so will the ultimate plant mom. It mounts to the wall via a keyhole hanger and will hold any six-inch plant or cutting from her garden. There’s no drainage hole, so mom could really use it to hold whatever she likes.
Quality slippers are a slam-dunk gift for any occasion. Thanks to their traction soles, these slide-on slippers are suitable for indoors or outdoors, and their fleece lining will keep feet warm and cozy year-round. There’s extra cushioning and built-in arch support, so mom doesn’t have to sacrifice support and comfort for style with these Nordic-inspired slippers.
Add a touch of magic to her backyard with these pot huggers. Each handmade topper is ready to perch on flowerpots or fences. Pops of gold add extra sparkle to each creature. There’s one dragonfly and one butterfly per set; each insect is about four by four inches.
Whether she’s wrapping it around her neck or her favorite handbag, a bright scarf is the perfect accessory for styling spring and summer ‘fits. This neckerchief is accented with florals and embroidery for a crafted look and feel. Its lightweight cotton will keep mom feeling cool and breezy, too.
