Mother's Day is a time to celebrate the special women in our lives. With all the advertising guilting you into buying stuff to prove your love, it can be easy to forget about the clutter. I put together a list of clutter-free Mother's Day gift ideas that your mom will love.


From experiences to subscriptions, these gifts are sure to make your mom feel special without adding clutter to her home. So take a look and find the perfect gift for the woman who does it all.


A gift certificate for a massage or spa day. This is a great way for mom to relax and pamper herself.


A subscription to her favorite magazine or streaming service. This will give her hours of entertainment.


A gift basket filled with her favorite snacks and treats. This is a delicious and easy way to show her how much you care. In my family, we give “Food Bags” for birthdays and other celebrations - a grocery tote bag filled with snacks and drinks we know the recipient would love but that we don’t buy regularly.


A framed photo of the family. This is a sentimental gift that she will cherish for years to come.


A personalized photo book. Gather your favorite family photos and create a personalized photo book. This thoughtful gift will remind your mother of cherished memories.


A donation to her favorite charity. Make a donation to a charity that your mother supports in her name. This gift is perfect for mothers who value giving back.


A handwritten letter or card expressing your love and appreciation. This is a personal and heartfelt gift that she'll treasure forever.


A Yes Day with you. Based on the book Yes Day! by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld (and now a Netflix film with Jennifer Garner and Jenna Ortega), the original idea was a day when parents couldn’t say “no” to kids’ requests. Give this a twist and let your mom be the director of a Yes Day.


A weekend getaway. Plan a weekend getaway for your mother to a nearby city or a cozy bed and breakfast.


A homemade gift. This is a unique and personal gift that she'll love. Some ideas include a baked good, a piece of art, or a framed family photo.


A new experience, such as a cooking class, wine tasting, or concert. This is a gift that she will never forget.


A gift of your time. This could be anything from taking her out for a coffee to helping her with her chores. The most important thing is to spend time with her and tell her how much you appreciate her.


A plant. Give your mother a beautiful plant to brighten up her home. This gift is perfect for mothers with green thumbs.


A gift card to her favorite restaurant. Treat your mother to a delicious meal at her favorite restaurant by giving her a gift card.


A fitness class. Sign your mother up for a fitness class she's always wanted to try, such as yoga or Pilates.


Mother's Day is on Sunday, May 14th this year so you have plenty of time to plan for a meaningful gift. Don't wait until the last minute when you'll be forced to buy just another piece of clutter for your mom to have to deal with!
