For Family Movie Night
Urban Accents Popcorn Kernels and Popcorn Seasoning Variety Pack
Family movie nights aren’t complete without snacks. Grab your mom this variety pack of popcorn kernels and seasonings, so you can create your own tasty concoctions together.
Rather than burning through endless candles, dealing with broken wicks, or creating a possible fire hazard, gift your mom this candle warmer lamp. It’s flameless, smokeless, and can run for up to 10 hours. She can also use the 24-hour cycle feature, so she can automatically repeat her favorite settings for her ideal ambiance.
“Bathrobe” has been a standard Mother’s Day gift for a while, but this satin robe takes it to a whole new level. This AAPI-owned brand offers this robe in 20 colors and patterns, making it ideal for the diva mom to luxuriate in, regardless of their style. When it comes time to wash, a gentle cold cycle will do, followed by hanging the robe out to dry.
Get this for the mom who loves to relax — or the mom who needs to relax. The chair is constructed of sturdy, cotton canvas fabric that can hold up to 500 pounds and withstand the elements if you opt to mount it outdoors.
This is the Mother’s Day gift for the mom who loves plants but when a traditional vase just won’t do. The set has a vintage, science-lab/apothecary vibe, and Mom can use it as a regular vase or a terrarium with room for live cuttings to thrive.
These vibrant glass wind chimes bring some whimsy to a garden, porch, or yard with the tinkling of their sea shell glass. They’re available in 11 color configurations and patterns, from rainbow to patriotic red, white, and blue.
Warning: If your mom only cooks because someone has to feed the family, then kitchen supplies are not a Mother’s Day gift. But if she enjoys her time in the kitchen, it’s hard to do better than this sturdy, attractive, and versatile Dutch oven.

Does your mom love to layer her jewelry or does she prefer to keep it simple? Regardless, the Elisa Pendant Necklace can be her go-to piece! She can use it for everyday wear or as a timeless choice for elegant events. Choose from several birthstones from Kendra Scott’s repertoire based on your mom’s birthday, to add a personalized touch.
This necklace also comes in a pretty gift box and jewelry bag, making it the perfect one-stop Mother’s Day gift.
“I love gardening, but it’s getting harder to get out there with my knees/back/hip/etc.” If you’ve heard your mom say something like this, get her this bench-kneepad combo. The platform is made of comfy EVA foam. Deploy the legs and orient this Ohuhu with the platform on top so it works as a seat, or flip it over as a more pleasant place to kneel than the bare ground.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that watching birds is just so delightfully entertaining. This European-style bath with an oxidized bronze patina looks classy and can withstand just about any weather.

Sometimes, one word is all you need to sum someone up, and “Mama” is surely one of them, evoking feelings of comfort, love, warmth, fierceness, determination, dedication, and strength. We love the handwriting-like font on this cozy, cotton-blend sweatshirt.
Mother’s rings are a fairly traditional Mother’s Day gift, so you have a wide variety of choices to suit your mom’s style. We love these dainty, minimalist silver bands with customized engraving, though: The font is teeny-tiny and perfect for the mom who’s looking for a subtle but meaningful ode to her children.
Remind your mother of your bond with this sterling silver bangle. It’s adjustable and features a two-sided charm that says “Mom” on the front and “Bonded by love, connected for life” on the back. It’s also available in a gold finish.
