Mother Daughter Gift Keychain
This keychain is gorgeous and a great way of reminding your mom of your love for her!
I have two boys whom I adore and they are also absolutely sweet to me. Yet there are things which they won’t appreciate like going shopping and trying clothes.
I just brought my two-year-old out shopping the other day and I tried on some dressed. She went, “Wow. So pweetty!”
And even at this age, she notices when I put on accessories like necklaces and earrings and she will gush about them. I’m just so happy that I can share my girlish fancies with my little girl!

Hope Unfolding: Grace-Filled Truth For The Momma’s Heart
As a Christian mom, I cannot emphasize how much I have learned to depend on God’s grace and strength on my journey of motherhood since the days of my pregnancy.
Many times moms have high expectations of themselves and, all too often, we beat ourselves up for our self-labeled failures.
But the truth is, our kids hold such high regard of us regardless of what we do. More importantly, God’s grace is overflowing and we can always lean on Him for wisdom and love.
Here’s a beautiful book of hope and grace for your mother to remind her of how awesome she is in the eyes of her children and in the eyes of God.

Mom’s Daily Bread: 365 Scriptures to Encourage a Mother’s Heart
I used to struggle with having a consistent daily quiet time to read the bible and meditate on God’s Word.
But I have learned that setting aside pockets of time through the day is better than trying to set aside a full 30 minutes because it can be quite distracting when the kids are around.
Therefore, using the daily bread to get in touch with God’s Word on a daily basis has helped me settle into a consistent and manageable daily routine.
Would this book be the perfect Christmas gift for a mom to get her through each other refreshed with God’s life-giving Word?
Face Mask
As I hit my 30s, I have become more aware of my face care regime and have a greater desire to look youthful.
But I can hardly bring myself to go for facial treatments because of the lack of time and money, therefore, home facial treatments are important for me! And, I believe, for many other moms too!
I love using a mud mask because of the tightening effects and how clear my skin feels after use.
This Indian Healing Clay Mask might just be the best Christmas gift for your mom to keep her skin looking radiant and youthful! What’s more, it’s ranked among the top 10 items in Amazon’s Beauty and Grooming category!
You might also want to check out this highly popular Deep Sea Mud Mask which is suitable for all skin types. This mask will help to cleanse and soothe the skin.
Doesn’t this sound like a relaxing home-spa treat for your mom? And it’s a pocket-friendly gift too!
For moms who prefer the convenience of sheet masks, then the Dermal Korea Collagen Essence Full Face Facial Mask would be the perfect gift this Christmas.
The Vitamin E and collagen in the masks will help keep tired skin lively and healthy. A great way for busy moms to wind down at the end of the day!

Bath Bombs Gift Set
It’s hard to enjoy personal time often when you have three rowdy kids running around the house all the time.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t even poop in peace because my daughter wants to be in the bathroom with me!
After all the cooking, cleaning, and messing around with the kids, I really look forward to having a long bath at the end of the day when the kids are all in bed.
Therefore, this bath bombs gift set would be an awesome treat for the mother who deserves to be pampered. Treat your mother to a luxurious, relaxing bath this Christmas!

Arthritis Compression Gloves
The sad truth is, arthritis doesn’t only affect the elderly. Moms and dads can be at risk too if we are not careful about the way we carry our kids.
There’s actually such a condition called “Mommy’s hand” where the person experiences pain in the hand between the thumb and the forefinger. This can be due to the improper carrying of the baby (think how you lift the baby under their armpits) or over-straining your hands.
In fact, my husband actually suffered this condition a few months into being a new dad. The joke was that the dad, not the mom, had the “mommy’s hand”.
For severe conditions, the patient might even need surgery. However, if it’s a slight strain or as preventive measures, this pair of compression gloves might come in handy for the mom!
Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelet
This essential oil bracelet doesn’t only look gorgeous on your wrist, it will help you soothe and calm your senses too! What a brilliant invention!
For the mother is always so busy, whether at home or at the office, this essential oil diffuser bracelet would be a charm.
Most of us are aware of the benefits of essential oils. Instead of just having an essential oil diffuser at home, why not get a diffuser bracelet for your mother this Christmas?
One big step to being a calmer mom with the help of the soothing properties of essential oils!
“I Love You More” Mug
To be honest, I don’t’ really like giving or receiving mugs are gifts because I already have so many mugs at home and I think most people do too.
But this is one mug I would be very amused to receive!
This mug says “I love you more than my sibling does” which is adorably hilarious and would definitely out the smile on your mother’s face.
In fact, there are other funny mugs that you can choose from too —
“No matter what life throws at you, at least you don’t have ugly children.”
“Thank you for giving me life and thank you for not taking it back during my teen years.”
“Thank you for giving me life and thank you for not taking it back during my teen years.”
These mugs are definitely fun and cheap Christmas gifts for the mom with a great sense of humor! And also a great way for grown kids to bring a smile to your mother’s face every day especially if you no longer stay with your parents.

Fruit Infuser Water Bottle
I don’t always fancy drinking tap water even though I know we need to drink 8 glasses of water a day.
It most certainly helps if the water is lightly sweetened with a fruity taste! So this leak-proof fruit infuser water bottle is perfect!
Just cut several slices of fruit, place them into the infuser and you’d have refreshing fruit-infused water to drink on the go!
This is definitely a great companion for moms who are out and about often, for example chauffeuring the kids around.
The best part? You are keeping away from the sugars from fruit juice and still getting the vitamins and great-tasting water.
