84 Last-Minute Mother's Day Gift Ideas You Can Still Get to Her in Time
Down to the wire? Shop our favorite gifts with fast shipping options and even same-day, in-store pick-up.
It's the same song and dance every year. Your mother — who fed you, clothed you, kept up with all of your activities and continues to answer the phone to hear every detail about your day — when asked what she wants for Mother's Day says, "Oh, I don't need anything."
Cue the palm sweats and panic that come with being on your own to find the perfect present. This woman deserves cards, bouquets of flowers, the royal treatment and then some. You can't just get her nothing.
Luckily, you have us, the shopping experts at HGTV, and finding thoughtful and affordable presents with fast shipping is our specialty. Here are 84 items (most with free two-day shipping) that would make great Mother's Day gifts and that can be delivered to her door before May 12. And if you're really out of time, several retailers in this list offer same-day, in-store pick-up! Mom will be so glad you ignored her advice, just this one time.
Mother's Day Gifts at Amazon
If Mom loves keeping up with the latest trends, then treat her to one of the season's hottest items from Amazon. Here, you'll find TikTok-famous lip balm, chic LEGO sets and gorgeous packing cubes for her next trip. We even spotted these nifty, changeable art frames for swapping out your kid's latest creations or a piece dedicated to Mom. And since Amazon Prime members automatically qualify for free two-day shipping, you can bet that your gift will arrive before May 12.
Mother's Day Gifts at Anthropologie
What do you get the Hostess with the Mostest, you ask? Literally anything from Anthropologie. These entertaining essentials — from cheeseboards to coasters to cards — all fit Mom's table, so you can definitely mix and match items. And if your mom loves Anthro's signature bistro series, you're in luck. There's now a "MOM" mug in this style. There's also a "MUM" mug if you're British — or if your kids watch "Peppa Pig."
Mother's Day Gifts at Brooklinen
Do you know what new moms really want for Mother's Day? Sleep. More specifically, eight uninterrupted hours cocooned in luxury bedding. Make her dreams come true by stocking up on new comforters, pillows, sheets and more at Brooklinen — one of our all-time favorite bedding brands.
Mother's Day Gifts at Caraway
We love Caraway cookware and bakeware and believe it's worth the investment, but we really love it when it's on sale! Right now, you can save big on select bundles for Mother's Day as well as discounts on other iconic pieces such as the tea kettle. Even better: Ground shipping is free and typically takes three to six days. But you can also select expedited shipping if you're in a pinch.
Mother's Day Gifts at Cozy Earth
There are very few gifts that top a good night's sleep. Help Mom get the rest she deserves with luxurious bedding, bath towels and loungewear from Cozy Earth. Treat her to total relaxation by pairing a sheet set with a piece from Cozy Earth's loungewear collection made from temperature-regulating viscose from bamboo fabric.
Mother's Day Gifts at Crate & Barrel
The Queen of the Kitchen deserves the best tools — and you'll find them at Crate & Barrel. Think Chantal Tea Kettles so she can serve herself or a crowd, plus Schmidt Brothers Knife Block Sets to help with dinner prep. You can ship the gift directly to Mom's door, or buy it online and pick it up in-store for her.
Mother's Day Gifts at Nordstrom
Nordstrom offers two-day shipping as well as in-store pick-up on thousands of items. And because it's Nordstrom, you can score name brands that may have longer shipping if you shopped directly such as Parachute or Liberty London. And if she's been waiting for Sephora to restock the viral Dior lip oil, Nordstrom has it with free two-day shipping!
Mother's Day Gifts at Pottery Barn
When in doubt, delight Mom with some self-care essentials from Pottery Barn. (And then give her a few hours alone to actually enjoy them.) Take your pick of fluffy robes, candles and even sentimental picture frames for her vanity. There are also several new collabs to shop, from exclusive Lily Pulitzer patio decor to LoveShackFancy trinkets. Pottery Barn also offers free in-store pickup.
Mother's Day Gifts at Target
For the Mom who craves quality time, we suggest planning an activity that you can do together, like painting and sipping something wonderful or making these pressed flower resin coasters. Target is also the best place for DIYing a gift basket. This cane beach bag would make the perfect container for a bundle of spa goodies. And this rattan bottle sling looks so much better than a wine-shaped paper bag. You can ship everything straight to the house or select in-store pickup and make the trip to Target together.
Mother's Day Gifts at Terrain
If Mom's happy place is in her garden or outside on the patio, then surprise her with something special from Terrain. You can peruse thousands of items (including fresh flowers and wreaths!) and get 10 percent off your first online order. If we had to guess, she'd probably love a new sun hat for those especially hot days or some new accessories for dining al fresco with family this summer.
Mother's Day Gifts at Walmart
For the mom who's always on the move, we suggest an outdoorsy or sporty gift from Walmart. They've rolled back the prices on hundreds of items, including Beach Cruiser bikes, golf clubs, yoga mats, hiking packs, treadmills and even rowing machines. Be sure to grab an insulated water bottle to help her stay hydrated and a set of AirPods so she can listen to music. Thousands of items have fast, two-day shipping or offer in-store pick-up. But if you have Walmart+ you can choose express delivery and even same-day delivery on select items. Right now, Walmart is offering a "mom hack" with a free 30-day trial of Walmart+ just in time for those last-minute Mother's Day gifts.
Mother's Day Gifts at Williams Sonoma
For the mom who loves to be fancy, Williams Sonoma is full of treats well beyond designer cookware and decor. There are virtual classes you can book online at Williams Sonoma as well as a bevy of special sweets, from cannoli kits to the latest collab with Bridgerton. Oh, yes. The collection is massive and features all kinds of eats perfect for the season premiere.
