Here are some affordable gift ideas:
Coffee Cup
Whether it’s a gift for at work or for that life-sustaining cup of coffee before rushing out the door, any coffee (or tea or other hot beverage) loving mama will always appreciate a new coffee cup. As I was searching coffee cups for mom on Amazon, I found too many cute designs to choose from!
Coffee or Tea
A nice coffee or tea is a great gift to go along with the aforementioned coffee cup or on it’s own. You can go with a known favorite or pick out something new for her to try! A nice sampler is always a good option.
A Nice Planner
If you can spring for it, I ADORE my Inspired Year Planner. It is roomy, pretty, well organized, and will help any mom to keep on track with her goals. I realize that not everyone has $50 to spend on Christmas gifts though, so this one here is available for $13.49 from Amazon
Glossybox
To be honest, I probably never would have ordered a Glossybox before I worked with them on this review. Now that I have experienced the fun and pampering that comes in one of these pretty little boxes, I think that any lady would love being treated to one.
Cute Work Bag
If you are looking for more ideas, Nicole from The Professional Mom Project, also has a list of Top Gifts for Working Moms.
A Framed Photo for Her Desk
Motivational Desk Calendar
I personally love this “You are a badass” version..but not all offices would be a fan. There’s also the pretty Seize the Day option.
If the mom that you are shopping for is a teacher, I would probably recommend staying away from the badass calendar. Here are some more gift ideas for teacher moms.
Stress Relief Lotion and Body Wash
Or stress relief oil
An Hour Alone
I’m only half kidding on this one. If you are looking for a great gift that is 100% free, just offer to leave mom alone for a bit. You may even spring for a movie ticket and send her off for some mommy time.
