Moms are the most humble, generous, and kind beings in the universe. And for daughters, they are their first best friends. The bond between a mom and a daughter is one of the most special ones as for daughters, moms are their biggest support system. Valuing these bonds, daughters always tend to be inclined toward making their mom feel special by showcasing their love and appreciation in the form of presents. Particularly, on special events like their mom’s birthday, daughters feel like showering her with pretty and expensive gifts with whatever they have.
However, as said earlier, moms are quite humble and modest, which is why, at times, they are reluctant to receive any form of materialistic things especially when it comes to expensive gifts. They are not used to getting showered with so much love from their children; they always have the belief that it is their own responsibility to treat their kids, particularly daughters, with things they have always loved. But girls know how to fulfill their mom’s small and big wishes and they tend to keep an eye on the latter’s wishlist to know what to gift them on their birthdays. Nonetheless, if you are still clueless about what you want to buy for your mom on her big day, here is a list of the top 10 best birthday gift ideas for all budgets and all kinds of ladies.
1) Jewelry
Diamonds are a woman’s best friend, and every woman out there very well knows this. So, if you are a daughter who can splurge on luxurious gifts for your mom, there is nothing better than a timeless and classic piece of fine and subtle jewelry. Every woman loves to receive classy and fine ornaments like bracelets, pendants, or earrings. If you are looking for something dainty yet unique, you may look for elements such as moonstone jewelry, freshwater pearls, diamonds, etc. These are everlasting and she will always silently remember that you gifted her this whenever she dons it.
2) Personalized Gifts
Mothers are unique and no one can match them. Such ladies in our lives deserve gifts that are as unique as them and there can be nothing better than personalized souvenirs for moms. They can be customized for all budgets and types. From personalized mugs, cushions, and blankets, to wooden or glass engraved items, you will get a variety of options to choose from. These can also be customized with their picture, names, birth date, etc., or all of these. A personalized gift or an entire hamper reflects how much effort you have put into planning the day and getting it executed.
3) Birthflower Preservation
Many women, of all ages, love getting flowers as gifts. However, we all know that bouquets can be quite expensive and may not last as long. Plus they are not as unique as your mom. Besides, if your mom is not a plant person, that option also doesn’t work. In that case, if you want a combination of the above two along with the fact that your mom loves flowers and likes to preserve them forever, you may opt for a birthflower necklace or ring. These pieces come with flowers associated with the birth month and you can create personalized yet dainty jewelry for your mom with her birth flower preserved in it.
4) Coffee Maker
If your mom is someone who cannot imagine her day without her perfect cup of morning coffee, you can help make sure she receives one every single day so that her mood stays on point (because mom’s mood decides the mood of the entire house!). And for this, there can be no better option than investing in a decent coffee maker that can customize her warm or cold coffee just the way she likes it. There are several variations to choose from in different budgets, and these can be ‘smart’ly operated using their phone so they need not keep tinkering with the functionalities now and then. You may also instead look for a temperature control smart mug if your mom cannot avoid her coffee throughout the day and wants it warm and fresh every single time. That can be a budget-buy besides being portable if you cannot invest in a wholesome coffee machine.
5) Kitchen Essentials
If your mom loves to cook or bake, there is quite a great variety of options to gift her. From crockery and cutlery to electronics like blenders, whisks, etc., you can choose from a range of gifts for different budgets. Again there are many smart kitchen appliances such as instant pressure cookers which can help ease her work. The goal is to eventually reduce her burden so she can have her time to relax. These tools can also help working moms in multitasking and you never know, she may be eyeing on one such appliance for quite some time. Steal a glance into her wishlist and get her what she needs – that all moms expect from their daughters.
6) Beauty and Self-Care
As children, we have always interrupted our mom’s ‘me-time’ knowingly or unknowingly. But as we grow up, we realize how much our own space and time means to us and our moms also deserve it, sometimes way more than we do. No one can understand better than girls themselves how much a good beauty service or self-care product can make a woman feel. It could be either her favorite makeup product or a spa session at a luxury salon, make sure you give her a birthday which is entirely ‘her day’ to relax and rejuvenate. Even if you are looking for something light in your pocket, you may get her a nice hamper with some self-care products like bath bombs, shower essentials, or a nice set of makeup applicators. Know your mom’s niche and go out of the way to surprise her with her well-deserved ‘me-time’.
7) Fragrances
If you know your mom well, you know how much she is into good fragrances. Because every woman loves fragrances and has a favorite aroma, a daughter can very well understand and recognize her mom’s taste. It could be either perfumes, body mists, or EDPs, or it could be aromatic candles, wax tablets, aroma diffusers, or room fresheners. As women, we all love fresh and soothing fragrances of all forms. If you identify your mom’s liking in this genre, you may find some very good products as a female yourself. Gifting your mom some of these on her birthday will make her the happiest to have received such a thoughtful present. Or more so, you may get a luxurious gift set made of a combination of all of these to make your mom’s birthday one of the most special ones for her. And you never know, you may also get to use some of these if your mom shares them with you!
8) Nails
One of the most ‘in’ fashion trends in today’s times is getting your nails done. As women, we all know the pleasure of getting a fresh set of nails in your favorite color and art. However, oftentimes we tend to forget that our moms have stopped fulfilling their desires and satisfying their beauty pleasure while raising us. So, there can’t be a day better than her birthday to get her a special nail appointment at your favorite studio and spoil her with a beautiful new set. This will give her an all-new confidence, plus they will last quite some time. Moreover, if your mom is too busy for a nail appointment, you may even opt for stick-on nails that are easily available on Etsy or Amazon or can get a customized set made by your go-to nail tech. You can then spend some time with her pampering her with the nail set and also having a small gossiping session with her. This will make her feel pretty from the inside out and will have her getting compliments from all her friends
9) Clothes
It’s no news how much women are obsessed with buying and getting new clothes. Every woman loves the scent of brand-new clothes and daughters know the best how much their mom loves getting dressed up. You can relive the sentimental side of your mother-daughter bond by making her recall how she used to play dress-up with you when you were her baby girl and get her the prettiest outfits for her big day. It could be a beautiful ball gown or a subtle and pretty blouse – she will love it all. Plus you can make sure she has something fresh and new to don on her birthday for that office party or for her ladies’ day out. If you are low on the budget, you may even go creative with getting her a personalized bathrobe or a classy piece that she will keep treasuring and loving for quite a long time.
10) Tech Gifts
Not all moms are made for the kitchen or the beauty studios. Many of them are even in front of their Mac staring at it with geeky glasses on. For such nerdy moms, there are several tech-savvy gifts you can choose from and you’ll be sure she’s gonna love it. You may gift her the classy AirPods or a smartwatch or may look for other smart devices newly launched in the market. Gifting her one such piece will make her realize how much her daughter knows and understands her choices and habits, and she will be more than appreciative of your effort.
Wrapping up!
In conclusion, we can say that there is an array of different options to choose from when you want to express your gratitude and love towards your mom in the form of a present. Always remember that the gift should be resonating with your mom’s personality and wishes. Also ensure that each piece of gift should be a reflection of the love, affection, efforts, and unique bond that you share with your mom. It shouldn’t just be a materialistic present, but a gesture that determines the heartfelt sentiments of a daughter. Here’s to all the wonderful moms who deserve the world. Happy gifting!
