Mother’s Day Gift Guide – Why Shop Small?
There’s no doubt small businesses have faced major challenges in recent years. I love finding ways to “shop small” because I feel like the products have passion and purpose.
This could be my favorite gift guide of all time. I can actually picture the ladies who would love these gifts…myself included! Let me know which ones speak to you too.

Trendy and Chic Apparel
Whether your mom is working from home or heading to brunch, you can find great clothing from small shops. Who doesn’t love a flowy summer dress or graphic sweatshirt? I especially love the chenille-lettered sweatshirt below and the flowy, linen dress.
Jewelry Gifts
What mother doesn’t love receiving unique jewelry for her special day? The clay earrings and personalized bracelet below offer a very trendy look at a reasonable price.
Gifts for Gardeners
I’ll admit I’ve been a “plant lady” ever since we created the vegetable garden of my dreams. I have added some of these gifts for gardeners to my wish list!
When I was creating this Mother’s Day gift guide, I knew I wanted to include some plant hangers. I recently shared a simple tutorial for a DIY macrame plant hanger, but I’m loving the color-blocked version below! The personalized planter for a grandmother is another favorite.
Nature Gifts for Mom
Somewhat related to gardening, these nature-inspired gifts will help Mom enjoy the great outdoors. You might also like to check out my Mother’s Day Gifts for Nature Lovers for more ideas.
Note: Some products may sell out due to small production runs, but these sellers have plenty of great substitutes in that event. Click on their shop names for details.
Crafty Gifts for Mom
You’ll be amazed at the number of craft kits you can buy from small businesses. My sister-in-law once told me that she wanted to learn hand-lettering (if she could choose just one thing). Ta-dah! The candle-making kits and embroidery starter bundles are trending as well.
I’m also a huge fan of the Microfleur Flower Press, which allows you to press fresh flowers in the microwave in under 10 minutes. This is perfect for making a wide variety of pressed flower crafts and DIY pressed flower wall art.

Gifts for Mom to Rest and Recharge
At the start of the day, this momma needs a little caffeine boost! At the end of the day, I’m ready to relax. Here are some gifts to help Mom start and finish the day in style. I absolutely love the idea of a personalized throw blanket!
