If you think about it, every day should be Mother's Day! But since she only gets one special day just for her (besides her birthday of course), make sure you get her one of the best Mother's Day gifts you can find. And just because these best gifts for mom are heartfelt and meaningful, that doesn't mean they're expensive. There are plenty of affordable gifts under $50 that will make her feel like you put a lot of thought and money into your purchase.

And of course, it doesn't have to be a gift for your mom, necessarily. Most of these ideas, like delicious teas and at-home spa baskets, are ideal gifts no matter who she might have mothered or been a mother figure to. These could be gifts for your wife, gifts for your mother-in-law, or gifts for your grandma. There are gifts for bakers, gifts for chocolate lovers, and a few delicious home scents to fill her house with fragrance (and a little love from you).

But if this idea is for your mom, just know that there are plenty of personalized picks that will let her know just how much you appreciate all that she has done for you. Whether it's a gift for mom from her daughter or a Mother's Day gift from kids of any age, she'll absolutely love the heirloom-quality custom recipe binder to pass down to her family or the memory book to jot down little notes each day. Can you picture her smiling through her (happy) tears? Good, mission accomplished!
