25 Cheerful Mother’s Day Recipes (Plus Last-Minute Gifts)

May 07, 2018

Mother’s Day is just six days away! I’ve rounded up my favorite spring-y recipes and sweet gifts that will delight Mom this Sunday. The recipes are organized by category (savory and sweet brunch options, salads and sides, main dishes and desserts).

Is your mom impossible to shop for like mine? Below, you’ll find gifts that are beautiful, thoughtful and functional. I hope they make your mama happy!

The product links are affiliate links; I own them all myself so I can vouch for their gift-worthiness. For more ideas (including more kitchen items), check out my shop.

Love Real Food: My cookbook! I might be biased, but I hear the book makes a wonderful Mother’s Day gift. It’s affordable, too.
Artifact Uprising Photos: This company makes the most beautiful photo prints and display options. You’ll have fun picking out photos for their easel calendar or photo display box.
OXO Electric Tea Kettle: Easily adjust the temperature so her tea turns out perfectly every time.
Osmia Natural Soaps and Body Oils: Osmia’s soaps are gorgeous and long-lasting. I get compliments every time I wear their scented body oils (Night is my favorite).
Voluspa Glass Jar Candle: I love these coconut wax-based candles. My favorite scents are Mokara or Baltic Amber, but you really can’t go wrong.
B Mat Yoga Mat: This eco-friendly yoga mat is the best. I never slip!
Linen Sheets: She’ll appreciate these linen sheets every day. They’re nice and cool, and OEKO-TEX certified.
Longchamp Tote Bag (also available in more colors): This chic bag is lightweight, easy to carry, holds a 15″ laptop, zips for security and fits nicely over a rolling suitcase handle.
Fujifilm Instax Instant Film Camera (plus film): This camera is a modern Polaroid. Snap your vacations, parties and everyday memories!
