‘God could not be everywhere, and therefore he made mothers’: Rudyard Kipling

Who is your life’s first best friend? Still thinking? Well, it isn’t hard at all…. It is definitely your MOM! Mom, Mamma or Ma, we call her with different names but one thing which always resonates with all moms is true unconditional love. We should celebrate each and every day with our sweet best friend mommy, but well, mothers rarely want any attention and they always shy away from receiving any credits. Selfless love is what she offered you always and will continue to shower on till eternity. That makes it super important to make Mother’s Day super special! 

So, if you are looking for Mother’s Day gift ideas, look no more. Why, because these ideas are nowhere fancy and gifts will be straight from your heart, something which all mommies love! So, let’s get working!

P.S.- These are totally unique mothers day gift DIY, and you won’t find it in any store! :P

1. Mom’s Own Kitchen Garden

If your mom loves cooking, then those sweet food memories is something super close to both you and her. You may have read all about mothers day gift plants, but let’s take this one step up. Get some nice plants like herbs, tomatoes etc. from a nursery near you. Set it all in the balcony or a garden if your house has one (Be sure you are secretive about it till you finish!), and then see the joy on your mom’s face. You can grow all these plants from seeds from fresh fruits or planting herbs but that might take some time, though if you decide to go for it, then grow it together with your mom! Some nice mommy daughter time is in store!

2. Clean Your Room

Now you must be wondering this is so stupid! But seriously if you are one messy person, nothing irritates moms more than the havoc you create in your room. The irritated mutterings when she picks up all the mess you created is something many of us relate with. So, surprise her with a spick and span room and the shock and awe on her face would be totally worth it. (To make it special, surprise her with a nice card with the card saying surprise is in your room, and once she reaches there she finds a beautiful bouquet of flowers waiting in a clean non-messy room.)

3. Holiday from All Household Chores

Mommies spend a lot of time in the kitchen making delicious food for you and the whole family. So, this mother’s day give her the much deserved holiday from kitchen and any other household stuff (In fact practice it once every month at minimum). Chip in for kitchen duties or if you are totally not confident, go in for a mothers day gift home delivery… that is scrumptious food from mom’s favorite restaurant.

4. Redeemable Coupons

Unique goofy ideas are what takes place when you add the secret ingredient i.e. your love. Irrespective of whether you are married or unmarried, moms are super close to us. So, present her with hand written coupons which she can redeem anytime. They can range right from ‘Doing laundry’ to ‘Taking care of plants’ right to ‘Me time break’ and ‘Day out with friends’, opportunities are endless with this gift! You know your mom the best, so give her coupons to redeem which she will love and enjoy.

5. Plan a Trip with your Mom

Time to relive your childhood? No, it’s time to lend wings to your mother’s dreams! There must surely be a place which she always wanted to visit, right? Just think about that bucket list of hers and surprise her with a trip to her dream place. What’s more you hop on it with her (as her official photographer :P) and what you will build is sweet and cherishable memories of a lifetime when you see that unmissable smile on your ma’s face!

6. Surprise Mom with a Handmade Card

No, it is not kiddish at all! You don’t need to be Picasso to make a card. Mommies love even little scribbles of their children. Remember how she used to be super proud of your drawing when you were like a toddler showing it off to every person who came home? (Though it hardly classified as a drawing!) Mothers day gifts and card should have some feelings attached! Surprise your mommy by making her a card from a very personal memory between both of you. Nowadays you can make anything by watching on YouTube or online. Little personal gestures are what will make her super happy.

We hope you loved these super personal and right from the heart ideas! So, time to celebrate a day dedicated to our mommies and don’t forget to pamper them to no limits!!!
