Say whatever you want about how hard your mom is to buy for, but don’t think you’re going to bow up to me with a challenge on it, unless you’re willing to take that conversation straight to a level 10, because I will win that one every single time.

Honestly. Try me.

My mother is the hardest woman ever to buy for because, for one, she doesn’t know herself what it is that she wants.

Everyone in my family starts grumbling a few months before any gift-giving time because my mom bills herself as being easy-going and “oh, y’all don’t need to get me anything,” but she’s not and we do.

This year I’m planning to be crowned The Favorite Child because I’ve found the PERFECT gifts for her, and there’s no way my brother has the gumption to come even close 😏.

In my search for finding the perfect gifts for my mom, I came across so many fun and amazing ideas, I have to share them with you.

Here’s the criteria of what I was looking for:

Creative T-shirts or home decor items with funny or snarky sayings on them
Personalized, one-of-a-kind items
High quality items that are somewhat unique

Here are 11 Mothers Day gifts that will blow your mom away, and move you up in popularity among your siblings.

Monogrammed Leather Cuff

How cute is this? It comes in all different colors of leather and the medallion is customizable, of course.

If it isn’t perfect for your mom, add it to your own wish list, or just go on ahead and grab it for yourself right now.

Handwriting necklace

I’m such a sucker for things like this: jewelry that captures the essence of someone I love.

The only thing more personal than your loved one’s handwriting is their body fluids, but we’re talking “gifts for mom,” so any gift involving “body fluids” just feels weird.

Hidden Message Handwriting Jewelry

If having your handwriting or your child’s handwriting immortalized for all eternity on a piece of metal isn’t enough for you (or your hard-to-please mother 🙄), maybe having the words tucked in the inside of the jewelry as a sweet special message will be enough to finally satisfy that woman.

“Things I Love About Mom” Book

Want to make sure things don’t go without being said? Write them all down in this little cutie!

My mom can’t remember shit these days, so I’m going to get this and write out to her all the things I love about her, in case she ever forgets, she just flip through it and see the proof.

Get the hell out of my kitchen towel

My mom hates when people are in her kitchen. She doesn’t even like us in there if we’re trying to help her.

She wants to do it all herself and then complain that nobody ever helps her. It’s part of her mystique.

With this banner disguised as a kitchen towel, she won’t ever have to say the words, she can just keep it posted at all times.

I love my asshole kids oven mitt

Perfect for every mom because we’ve all thought this, and if you say you haven’t, you’re either a damn liar, or you spat out unicorns and we have nothing in common.

Careful not to trip over my amazingness mug

This one’s great because, is there a job that is more thankless than being a mother?

The answer is no.

The least we can do is tell our mom how amazing she is, because - in all likelihood - she is.
