Gifts For Mom Who Has Everything
This list of gifts is filled with unique and meaningful presents for the special mom in your life that she is sure to love, even if she tells you she ‘has everything’.
Nothing frivolous or ‘fluff’ here, just thoughtful, experience-rich gifts that nurture what moms crave most – less stress, time alone, laughter with loved ones, health, something personalized.
Whether you’re shopping for a best friend, your own mom, your sister-in-law, or your co-worker bestie, you’re sure to find a meaningful gift that she will adore from this list.
1. Coupon For Brunch Or Happy Hour On You
This is one of my favorite simple and meaningful gifts for mom who has everything.
Nothing like quality, on-on-one time at their favorite brunch spot or a cool new bar in town to reconnect with someone they care about, decompress, and enjoy being themselves free from responsibility.
I like to give this gift in person so we can lock in a date to get together soon, then and there!
All too often we moms get caught up being so busy with day-to-day life, sick kids, family obligations and the like, that brunch or happy hour plans we talk about with loved ones, always gets pushed back.
Pair this coupon for brunch or happy hour with a nice card and decide on a date together! (or, if you are gifting this to your wife, take care of the children while she goes out with friends for brunch or happy hour!)
Treat her to a nice meal, great company, connection, and laughs – something that is sure to feel so needed and rejuvenating for any mom!

2. Artpix 3D Crystal Photo
I absolutely love how this gift truly touches the heart.
Gorgeously realistic, laser etched picture perfection!
This is one of those super special ‘keepsake’ type of gifts for mom who has everything because it’s personalized with one of their own photos.
Perfect for your own mother – maybe it’s a picture of you when you were a child, or you two together at a special time in life, or of her and a family member she loved who has since passed.
If it’s for your sister or a friend, you can choose a special photo of you two, maybe one they have never seen or one they have said is their absolute favorite.
I know some moms who have loved this 3D crystal photo so much that they many others made in different shapes, like a heart, of photos of all their family and friends!
This is a very thoughtful gift for any mom that is sure to feel very, very special to her!
3. Little Laughter Films Custom Home Video
This is an absolutely unforgettable, extra meaningful gift for mom who has everything because it takes all the random video snippets you have of or with them, and puts them together as a professional film, music and all!
How beautiful is that?!
I know I have endless videos in my phone and saved to my hard drive!
One of my girlfriends did this for me when my twins were born and it was very, very special. I watched it over and over, teared up, and was able to emotionally re-live the beauty of that special time with my newborns.
This gift is sure to wow, awe, and bring tears of joy to the mom in your life!
4. Let That Sh*t Go Book + Journal
I personally, don’t know one mom, my age (30s), younger or older, who doesn’t struggle with thoughts and feelings of self-doubt, confusion, and feeling stuck in one way or another.
That’s why this little journal is on my list of gifts for mom who has everything!
One thing you may not know about me unless you know me personally, as a friend, is that I like a good swear word now and again, especially when I am passionate about something! And this journal mixes talking about those heavy thoughts and feelings with a good swear word here and there, that will make you feel empowered and laugh at the same time!
What a recipe to soothe a weary mom’s soul!
If you have a mom friend or loved one in your life that has expressed some emotional struggles with you (and enjoys a well-placed swear word now and again), this could be a very fitting and meaningful gift that can truly help lift them out of their rut and propel them further into their innate greatness!
A unique and useful gift that will give the true gift of stress relief and radical authenticity that we all crave to live in our lives!

5. A Gift Certificate For a Massage
This is a wonderful and useful gift for mom who has everything because it will give her time away from responsibilities PLUS the deeply therapeutic experience of a healing massage!
Maybe she has a favorite place in town or you have a go-to spot you think she will love!
Groupon is a great place to always find good deals too, if you aren’t sure about a massage place and would like a nice price.
If you do end up going with groupon, be sure to read the reviews and give the business a call to ask about how the coupon works, so you can ensure quality for your friend/loved one.

These beautiful necklaces -from surgical steel to 18k gold – make wonderful gifts for moms who have everything, because it is the whole package that really ‘wows’ – the beautiful box, the heartfelt message card, and the moment shared while they open and read it!

7. Mom Truths Ladies Night Card Game
Think cards against humanity but for moms, with mom-specific humor only moms will get!
This card game is a great, simple and hilarious gift for the mom who loves game nights and get togethers, and a good laugh about the pains of parenting!
I love a good game night to get into a good mood and have some carefree laughs with friends, no matter what the week before threw at me, so I had to include this on my list of gifts for mom who has everything!

EVERYTHING you need to know to start potty training with more ease, confidence, and calm.
8. Brain Science Course To Achieve Peace & Fulfillment
Now, this one is super unique but I had to include it because I gifted it to a close friend of mine who was feeling scattered in her mind, but knew she was capable of greater things and wanted a more peaceful life – yet she felt her brain would just not let it happen. (I know I have felt this way before myself!)
Because I know her well, I knew another book (which I personally love!) just wouldn’t speak to her the same as a video course would, so enter Brain Academy!
Brain Academy ‘introduces you to your brain’ through brain science and helps you learn how it really works – neuroplasticity, procrastination, stress, habit formation – and to work with it and maximize it unlike ever before.
What my friend told me is that it is life-changing and fascinating, what she learned from this course.
She would text me every time she had a revelation from the course or was mind-blown. Haha, I loved getting those messages! She even said she binge-watched much of it!
5 out of 5 stars was her final review when I asked, and she said it’s because she understands so much more about her own brain now, feels more in control her thoughts, and less scattered in her mind.
This is why I had to include this course on my list of gifts for mom who has everything, because it goes beyond the surface and can truly change the life of a mom you care about, who may have shared their scattered mind struggles with you.
In my opinion, this is one of the greatest gifts we can give someone who is struggling – a vehicle to have more clarity about themselves and how to help themselves feel better and be who they want to be.
A very meaningful and potentially life-changing gift.
9. Instax FujiFilm Smartphone Instant Photo Printer
This tiny instant printer is powerful, creating clear, beautiful polaroid-like photos straight from your phone!
I absolutely love this little printer and I am sure a lot of other moms out there will too!
It comes solo or you can add a case onto it. Fujifilm is the creator, so you know you have quality and reliability.
This little on-demand printer makes a perfect gift for moms who have everything!
10. Bath Soaking Pillow
Ultimate bath time comfort!
If the mom you are shopping for loves baths and usually uses nothing or a rolled up towel as her neck support, this gift is sure to be happily-received and regularly used!
Bath bombs and steamers are a common gift for mom who has everything BUT this luxurious bath soaking pillow takes it a step further and is far less common!
11. Personalized Book About Them (mom, wife, or friend Options)
A personalized fill-in-the-blank book that is as unique as the special mom in your life!
AND, if you are not shopping for your own mom – not to worry! This publisher has a collection of books like this: Hey Friend, I Wrote A Book About You, I Wrote A Book About Us, and the original, I Wrote A Book About You, so no matter if you are shopping for your best friend, wife, sister-in-law, or close co-worker, there is a custom book for you!
It takes on average, less than an hour to fill in all the blanks of playful prompts to put your unique story onto paper.
This is one of those cool, meaningful, and unique gifts for mom who have everything, that is sure to delight her! (I think it would be so interesting to get a book from everyone in your family to see how they view you, what they feel about you, and hear all the different things they remember/love most, don’t you think!?)
12. $100 Gift Card For Babysitting Or Housekeeping Services
All moms could use more help with their kids, am I right?!
I love giving this gift card gift that yes, they could use on anything, BUT I pair with a card to say the intention is that it is for babysitting so mom and dad can step away for a date hike or dinner, or mom can spend half a day doing whatever she pleases, without the responsibility of mommying.
This is a simple and sweet gift for mom who has everything, as it plants the seed in her mind to make arrangements to get away and have some time to herself! (Something that most moms don’t prioritize enough!)
If the mom you are shopping for doesn’t have a go-to sitter, you can look at care.com, sittercity.com, and junecare.com (in CA only as of now) for help. Junecare is very unique, as it is all stay-at-home moms who are available and open to host other littles at their home!
If you don’t have a go-to housekeeper to refer her to, Groupon.com can be a great resource for local options! Just be sure to read the reviews and call directly to inquire about how everything works (if you are buying directly for your loved one. Otherwise, share these tips with them!)
Maybe you could even just buy her a ‘credit’ on one of those sites? Not sure! Otherwise, the gift card with some babysitting resources can make a wonderful, thoughtful gift
13. Promptly Journals (For Memories, Grief, Self Love)
These beautifully unique journals have prompts that make it easy for moms to capture childhood memories, Christmas memories, grieve through a loss, heal through infertility, and learn to practice more self love so they can have a more peaceful life.
No guesswork about what to write because of the built-in prompts (yay, once less thing for moms to think about!).
Moms can easily keep things organized and journaled for the meaningful, challenging, and beautiful times in life.
A perfect gift for mom who has everything!
14. How To Meet Yourself Book: Self-Discovery Work
If you’re anything like me, you are in this season of healing and self-learning, and are having deeper conversations with your group of friends and your family.
With that, comes discussions about the books, blogs, and podcasts you are consuming. You are sharing real feelings and the resources that are helping you feel heard and whole.
This book, How To Meet Yourself, is on my list of gifts for mom who has everything, because so many of us moms live in survival mode, unaware of how past experiences have shaped us and guide or behaviors – both positive and negative. We wonder – why am I like this? Why can’t I stop this? Why does this bother me…?
I actually gifted this book to my cousin, who had slowly begun to learn the toll as an adult, that their parents’ style of parenting had on them when they were growing up – and how different their childhood experiences were from those of their siblings.
This book is intereactive, clarifying, mind-blowing, helping lift people out of survival mode, understanding their triggers and wounds, and how to help themselves heal and become more authentic to their true essence – rather than just a bundle of trauma responses – so they can show up in life and live in a way that truly aligns with who they want to be.
One of those life-changing gifts for a friend or family member you care about, who has shared their challenges with you.
Pair The Book with my ‘Healing’ Hoodie For The Perfect Gift
Healing and knowing your true self looks good on you! 😉
What Do All Mothers Want Most?
When it comes to receiving gifts, here are 7 things mothers want most:
- Moms want to feel appreciated and respected.
- Moms want to feel like they have time to relax and take care of their own needs.
- Moms want to be able to take care of their home and family without feeling overwhelmed.
- Moms want to have meaningful conversations with their loved ones and children.
- Moms want to be able to connect with other moms to share experiences, feel heard, seen, understood, and a part of something.
- Moms want to have a work/life balance that allows them to enjoy quality time with their family – non rushed and present in the moment.
- Moms want to feel that their hard work and dedication to their family is recognized and celebrated.
What To Consider When Buying Gifts For Moms
With lives and schedules being busy and many moms homes being full of ‘stuff’, definitely take a few moments to consider how your gift can not add to the excess, and instead stand out and speak to their heart and soul and desires in life.
Here are things to consider when buying gifts for moms:
- Think about the recipient’s interests and personality – Choose a gift that speaks to the recipient’s current interests and personality.
- Consider their practical needs – Consider the practical needs of the recipient. If they’ve mentioned feeling overwhelmed by housework or need a regular babysitter, or are constantly feeling stressed and unfulfilled – use this information to find a gift that nurtures their deeper needs.
- Set a budget – Before you start shopping, set a budget for your gift. This will help you hone in on the perfect gift without overspending.
- Look for unique and meaningful items, not just something cool or cute. When gift shopping, try to look for unique items that the recipient won’t easily find elsewhere. This could be a unique piece of jewelry, a handmade item, or something else that speaks to the recipient’s current interests.
- Return policy – What if they don’t love it? Know that they can and how to exchange or return it.
- Clutter and responsibility for the clutter – Another scarf or bath set or bedtime mask might just add to the clutter and become another thing they have to add to their to-do list, ie: return or stack in the garage to declutter later. This is why you really want to take a few minutes to reflect on conversations, place in life, and current interests and challenges, to determine what a truly useful and special gift could be for the special mom in your life is.
