Are you looking for the perfect thoughtful gift for mom for Mother's Day? Help her splurge and take care of herself by honouring her love for reading. Here are eight thoughtful and varied gift ideas for book lovers, perfect for every budget, and perfect to make her feel appreciated and loved.
eReader
We’ll start with a ‘wow’ gift! Although an eReader is a bit of a splurge, because eBooks are sooo much cheaper, it quickly pays for itself (in addition to making reading on the go much easier). The new Kindle Paperwhite is the hottest item right now but you can browse other brands and price points too.
Photo bookmark
Moms always carry photos of their loved ones on their phones or in their wallets, but why not help her carry them in her books too? You can get creative and customize a beautiful bookmark. It could be funny, commemorative or inspiring… whatever you think mom will most enjoy.
Bookish jewelry box
Does mom need extra space to keep her jewelry organized? This charming book-shaped holder is a great way to keep jewelry organized while also making a cute display. You can pair it with a piece of bookish jewelry too.
Spring blossoms booknook
Is mom creative? This book nook is a great project that will bring fresh blooms and the spirit of spring indoors, adding a colourful touch to her bookcase (and a warm cozy glow in the evening).
Audible 30-day trial subscription
Is mom busy and always running around? Getting her a 30-day free trial membership to Audible would allow her to test out this service and see if she enjoys listening to audiobooks or podcasts on-the-go.
This offer ends on April 30 so jump on this one quickly!
Personalized metal bookmark
Why not create a one-of-a-kind custom bookmark for mom that will become a keepsake! You can pick from over 30 icons and customize it with her name.
Bookish decoration
You could also surprise mom with this beautiful intricate spring suncatcher featuring three books, vibrant flowers, and a cozy cup of tea. This bookish decoration is perfect for bringing sunshine into a book-lover’s home.
