Finding the perfect Mother’s Day gift is like shopping for your first home: you know what you want but don’t know where to find it. You need something that’s going to be unique, memorable, and meaningful. And let’s face it: there are tons of gift ideas out there —but where do you start?
We’ve got you covered! We’ve done the research to find out what top-notch local small businesses are offering this Mother’s Day season.
So what are you waiting for? Check out our top 5 Mother’s Day gift ideas!
1. A Surprise Shopping Spree
A shopping spree is an excellent way to show appreciation because your mom can choose exactly what she wants. You can even make an afternoon of it and go to lunch after a fun morning of shopping.
One of my (Mal) top Mother’s Day memories included a shopping spree. My mom and I spent Mother’s Day with a teen mom with a special needs child. They had been at Children’s Hospital for months, and we surprised her with a fun day together! We brought a massive cart of gifts for her and the baby and then spoiled her with a shopping spree and lunch.
Where to go: Hit all the fun local shops in Yakima- Farmgirl Pickings, Fiddlesticks, Simply Crafted, Whimsical Details, Sundance, Love Couture, The Planted Home, Stems, Provisions Market.
2. A Relaxing Spa Gift
Most of the time, moms are too busy running their kids to soccer practice, planning birthday parties, or trying to get dinner ready— there’s no time for self-care. Spa gift cards give her time away from the stress of everyday life, and they’re also a great way to show her that you care about her well-being. A relaxing spa gift card is a gift that keeps on giving: she’ll be able to treat herself whenever she wants, and she’ll never forget who gave it to her! Even better, if you book a spa day to share in the relaxing together!
Where to go: Ummelina and A La Mode
3. Elegant Eternity Flowers
Our fondness for Eternity Flowers runs deep! We’ve used them for closing gifts and in the giveaway at our annual client appreciation party! These flowers simply brighten up a room and bring your space to life. What makes these flowers so unique? So many people love flowers but hate that they die so fast. But Eternity Flowers are real preserved flowers that last at least a year and smell amazing.
With many colors and arrangements to choose from, your mom will enjoy these flowers for a very long time!
Where to go: Venus et Fleur
4. A Thoughtful Custom Painting
We love anything custom because it shows you took the time to think about them and want to get them something unique. A thoughtful custom painting can be passed down and cherished for years.
The painting could be very personal, like a portrait of their grandkids or a particular pet. Other ideas could be a landscape from their favorite place to vacation or a quote or Bible verse with a profound meaning.

5. A New & Exciting Experience
From wine tasting and concerts to cooking classes, Yakima has some fantastic options to enjoy a new experience with your mom. You get to spend fun one-on-one time with her, and you may learn something new or pick up a new hobby along the way! Memories are precious gifts that you will both have forever.
