Moms. Grandmas. Aunts. Sisters. We celebrate Mother’s Day to honor and thank the many women who have shaped our lives in indescribable ways. Now’s the time to do what we often take for granted: shower her with the same love. Here are 9 Mother’s Day gifts that do just that, putting the photos she loves front and center.
1. Photo Book
This Mother’s Day, compile all her memories into a photo book — especially photos of her grandkids — for a timeless gift. Include little nods to the wonderful life she leads with scanned memorabilia, like snippets from her vows, ticket stubs from concerts, and postcards from travels.
Top tip: Have each family member write a special message for Mom, and then scan them onto a computer. Pair each handwritten note with a photo of its author for a keepsake she’ll treasure.
2. Metal Prints
All moms love home décor, so why not make it extra personal? Refresh her walls with metal photo prints – display them on staircase walls or cluster them above the fireplace. Take it up a notch by creating a triptych of generational portraits: grandmother, mother, daughter, spread across three metal prints.
3. Photo Blankets
Wrap Mom, a mom-to-be, grandma or whoever means “Mom” to you in a personalized photo blanket. Whether it’s her favorite family vacations, childhood memories, pictures of the grandkids, or all of the above, a personalized blanket is a gift that celebrates Mom’s story using the photos that matter.
Idea #1: Make a personalized woven blanket for the design-obsessed mom in your life. This beautifully textured piece is the perfect throw for couches, beds and loungers!
Idea #2: Delight a pet mom by spotlighting the favorite child pup.
4. Magic Mugs
Moms on the go love a cup of tea. Make your mom’s morning routine even more brew-tiful with a magic mug. These mugs feature a heat-sensitive coating that reveals a hidden photo or message when a hot drink is poured in.
Top tip: Make a magic mug featuring the kids’ drawings – mom, grandma, or any doting auntie will appreciate their beautiful scribbles.
5. Eternal Roses
A gift that’s as beautiful as she is. Our eternal roses are uniquely preserved to maintain their beauty for years to come. Whenever mom looks at it, she will think of you. The perfect gift for moms who want to decorate their homes with a touch of elegance.
6. Sherpa Blanket
A sherpa photo blanket is the perfect gift to remind new moms that they’re loved and appreciated too. While we traditionally give blankets to keep the baby warm and cozy, let’s not forget that mom deserves some comfort and rest too. What’s more, you can personalize your blanket with a heartfelt message to let her know she’s doing an amazing job.
Top tip: Upload photos of the baby – think first week pictures, scans of their footprints, or a cuddly moment with Mom.
7. Canvas Prints
Has she jet-setted around the world, ticked off all the continents, seen the seven wonders? For the travel mom in your life, preserve her favorite adventures on canvas prints. And for the mom who loves all things home, create the gallery wall of her dreams with sets of canvas prints. She’ll simply adore reliving her story: school days, the moment she said “I do”, the kids’ birthdays & more.
Top tip: Mix and match prints of all sizes to create visual interest – our most-loved 48 x 36″ canvas makes for a wonderful centerpiece.
8. Luxury Layflat Photo Books
Tell Mom’s story in a luxury photo book, featuring an Italian fabric cover, a glass-like acrylic front and pages that open completely flat. Add a sweet dedication note, upload black & white photos from your mother’s or grandmother’s past, and include captions about those anecdotal stories they love to share during family gatherings.
Top tip: Honor the many roles she played in addition to “mom” by including her accomplishments.
9. Rose Dome
A unique take on a classic Mother’s Day gift. A real, eternal rose is preserved in a flawless glass dome, ready to delight. Mom, Auntie, or your sister — absolutely everyone will appreciate such a sweet sign of love.
