Mother’s Day will be here before we know it! As you start thinking about gift ideas for the special ladies in your life, I hope this post helps you brainstorm!

Please click on any of the photos below to find where that item is sold.

I tried to come up with unique and thoughtful ideas to show that you poured your heart into your gift. The special women in our lives are worth it!

For even more inspiration, please check out the post I wrote last year around this time: 50 Gift Ideas for the Ladies in Your Life

PERSONALIZED CARDS

If your family doesn’t do gifts for Mother’s Day, you can still do something extra special! We love to create unique photo cards for Mother’s Day (and other special occasions)! These cards are often less expensive than those you can buy in a store… and so much more meaningful! View the cards we’ve had made over the last several years here.

Find the card below here. There are plenty of other cards to choose from here.

SUGARBOO FRAME

This picture doesn’t do this large, rustic wall frame justice – Sugarboo frames are so beautiful in person!! I am such a huge fan! We have multiple versions in our home. There are various quotes, colors, and styles to choose from.

Find the frame below here.

PERSONALIZED STATIONERY

How cute is this personalized stationery?! This is the kind of thing every mom and grandmother would love to have but we typically don’t buy for ourselves!

Find the stationery below here. There are countless styles to choose from here.

PERSONALIZED PHOTO VASE

CUSTOMIZED PHOTO MUG

I love to give photo mugs as gifts. My husband has many up in the cupboard from over the years, and the “special ones” are always the first ones he grabs! Who wouldn’t want to start their day with their favorite cuties smiling back at them? :)

Find the mug below here.

PHOTO LUGGAGE TAGS

What a fun way to mark your luggage as “yours” so no one takes it by mistake! (This has happened to us TWICE – ugh! But we’ve gotten the right bag back both times – yay!) Such a practical, useful gift!

Find the luggage tag below here.

HEART COLLAGE PRINT (FRAMED OR UNFRAMED)

Isn’t this print so special?! I LOVE IT!! I have shared it many, many times on my blog because I just think it’s THAT fabulous. It comes in various sizes, framed (multiple options) or unframed. View a similar collage I had made for our own home here. That print would also make a wonderful gift – find it here where you can customize it any way you’d like!

Find the heart collage below here, and begin designing your own!

Create your own print like the one below here.

CUSTOM PHOTO CANVAS

Take any special picture and turn it into a beautiful wall canvas!! View an entire wall gallery I had made here. It makes me so happy each time I walk past it! I’m sure the lady in your life would be touched by a canvas she could hang somewhere in her home that features a picture she loves.

Create a canvas like the one below here. (The quality is outstanding!)

TRANSFER OLD MOVIES TO DVD

You will be Gift MVP forever with this idea!! Take all those old family movies that are trapped on outdated tapes and movie reels, and transfer them to DVD’s! It’s easier than you might think!! If you’re able to pull this off, I have a feeling there will be some tears shed as moments from the past can come alive once more!

Learn how you can transfer old movies here.
