Mother’s Day is a wonderful time to treat Mom (or yourself!) to something special. We asked Laura Ford, a designer at Cary Prince Organizing, to share what she’s giving this year.
“When shopping for gifts, I tend to buy things I want for myself—especially when I shop for my mom. I love gifts that are useful, reasonably priced, but also a bit luxurious. Here are my top 10 gift ideas for Mother’s Day.”
— Laura Ford
- Quince Silk Eye Mask
What could be more luxurious than a silk eye mask? This one from Quince is beautiful, well-priced, and oh so comfortable. The champagne color is especially elegant—I’m convinced I sleep better with it. - Away Clear Toiletry Bag
I’m always on the hunt for the perfect toiletry bag, and this one from Away hits all the marks. I love that it’s see-through so you can find everything easily. - A Potted Plant
Plants make such a thoughtful gift. I love visiting local spots like Urban Jungle and Merrihew’s Sunset Gardens—or Trader Joe’s, which has great Monsteras and succulents. For online shopping, The Sill is a wonderful option. - Framebridge Tortoise Table Frame
A beautifully framed family photo is always a hit. I love that you can send a digital file to Framebridge—they’ll print, frame, and ship it directly to Mom! This tortoise frame is especially pretty. - Taft’s Silk Pillowcase
These silk pillowcases are one of my go-to gifts (I have a few myself!). They’re high quality, affordable, and hold up well in the wash. - Vuori Halo Wide-Leg Pant
These Vuori pants are both luxurious and practical. Perfect for lounging or long walks, and super flattering. The matching crewneck is just as cute and comfy. - Buck Mason Crew
Buck Mason is my favorite for well-priced, stylish staples. This crewneck has a flattering waistline and is the perfect weight for spring. It pairs beautifully with jeans. - Aesop Eleos Hand Balm
This hand cream smells divine and keeps my hands super soft. Plus, the lavender-colored tube looks very chic on a nightstand. - Emu Mayberry Sheepskin Slippers
A gift from my best friend that I loved so much, I bought a second pair! Cozy, stylish, and perfect for lounging at home. - Down Dog Subscription
Another favorite gift—this one from my dad! As a 30-year yoga practitioner, I can say the sequencing is top-notch. I’ve also gotten hooked on their Pilates classes (and discovered muscles I didn’t know I had!).
Whether you’re shopping for Mom or treating yourself, I hope this list offers a little inspiration.
Happy Mother’s Day!
