Gift baskets are great gifts for Mother’s Day. You can fill them up with all of her favorite things to show her how much she means to you. The Mother’s Day gift baskets do not have to be extravagant; they just need to be filled with the things your mother would love.

If your mom were into crafts, a basket with craft supplies would surely delight her for Mother’s Day. You can include tools and patterns for the crafts she enjoys along with a gift card to a craft store such as Michael’s or Joann’s. For a scrapbooking basket be sure to include decorative papers, ribbons, acid free markers, or stickers. Knitting baskets can include various knitting needles and colorful yarns. Threads, fabrics, and new shears are great additions to a sewing basket for Mother’s Day.

A pamper me basket is another great choice for Mother’s Day. Be sure to include her favorite lotion, a bottle of her favorite perfume or maybe one she has wanted to get, a box of her favorite tea, or maybe a gift card to a local spa. If your mom likes to read, add a new book or a subscription to her favorite magazine. No pamper me basket is complete without chocolate, be sure to add a few gourmet truffles to the mix. The Mother’s Day pamper me basket should include anything that is all about your mom and what makes her relax and feel pampered.

A cooking basket is another great choice but could be a little harder to do. You can include a new pot or pan, her favorite chef’s newest cookbook, gourmet ingredients that she uses, or other new kitchen gadgets she may not have. Kitchen appliances could also be included such as a bread machine, pasta maker, or indoor grill. If your mom cooks in bulk or has a garden a Food Saver would be a great addition to her Mother’s Day basket.
