Whether she's carrying this tote at the farmers market or using it on the boat, mom is sure to love this water-, stain- and abrasion-resistant bag made from Sunbrella performance fabric. You can also feel good about gifting this sustainabtote, since it's made from 93% recycled materials.
Estelle Display Lamp
Help mom display her favorite family photograph or small work of art in style with this easel-like lamp. We think this light would be absolutely beautiful positioned on a nightstand or desk.
VERANDA Simply Chic
If mom is a lover of design, she needs this coffee table book ASAP. We may be a bit biased, but Simply Chic offers a sophisticated look at 30 spectacular homes—from coastal landscapes to country retreats to dramatic city residences—and opens the door to timeless and elegant design.
Luxury Striped Twill Silk Square Scarf
A silk scarf offers a bit of French flair to any basic outfit. With this accessory, mom can instantly upgrade her white button down and jeans, or tie a twilly around her purse handle for a certain je nais se quois.
Saint-Tropez Candle
Transport mom to Saint-Tropez with this luxe candle that has notes of mint, thyme and basil. The spa-like scent and beautiful gold silk screen vessel will make this her new favorite.
Monogram Lori Tote
Upgrade mom's ancient beach bag to something infinitely more chic, like this hand-woven purse. It's roomy enough to hold her essentials (plus sunscreen, of course), it can be customized with up to three letters, and easily transitions from pool to cocktail hour.
Leather Mare Photo Album
If mom is sentimental, make her a photo album with all of her favorite family pictures and memories. This leather and marbled option is pretty enough to sit out on the coffee table year-round.
19th Century Antique French Confit Pot
If you want to bring mom flowers this Mother's Day, why not add a gorgeous antique vase as part of the gift? This is *technically* a confit pot, but we think it would be striking with an organic flower arrangement peeking out.
The Diana
Here at VERANDA, we have a soft spot for David Austin roses. After all, no one does the understated, yet elegant English rose quite like them. Now you can send some blooming magic to mom with this "Diana" arrangement, made entirely from David Austin’s Juliet, Edith and Beatrice roses in soft pinks and yellows.
Custom Block-Print Makeup Bag
We're obsessed with these block print makeup bags that effortlessly combine function and form. The fabric is hand block printed and constructed in India, and it's covered in high-quality vinyl on all sides to protect the fabric from water and stains. It's the absolute perfect gift for jet-setting moms.

Frame mom's favorite family photo in this chic turned walnut picture frame for a gift she'll treasure for years to come. With beautiful beading and smooth edge details, it's sure to add texture to any space.
Meyer Lemon Tree
Indulge mom's green thumb with a quick-shipping Meyer lemon tree from Amazon. It can be grown as a houseplant near a sunny window, or outdoors in Zones 9-11.
Rising Note Card
Mom taught you the importance of thank-you notes, so why not upgrade her stationery stash with these beautiful floral note cards from Papier? The design is inspired by illustrator Margaret Neilson Armstrong's Art Nouveau motifs from the Metropolitan Museum of Art—and we're obsessed with the ornate green backing.
Lune 8 in Stainless Steel
This minimalist watch from Nacre is a style chameleon, thanks to its white pearlized dial and vegetable-tanned Italian leather band. The eight cabochon pearls mark the various lunar phases, making it an instant conversation piece.
Crème de La Mer Face Cream
An icon for a reason, Crème de La Mer deserves a space on your mother's vanity, and we think she'll be more than willing to make room for it. The Miracle Broth formula practically makes one age in reverse and will give your mom baby-soft, glowing skin.
Le Marais Assorted Pastry Sampler
Give mom breakfast in bed with delicious pastries from the San Francisco bakery, Le Marais. Make sure to leave out the patisseries the night before and then brush them in egg wash and bake them that morning for the most delicious breakfast treat.
The Tisane
It's hard to shop for those who are new moms who have so much going on they cannot even tell you what they want. Consider a thoughtfully composed gift focused on her healing. Steep one teaspoon of this delightful combination of rosehips, nettle and milky oat tops in boiling hot water for 5-8 minutes and allow the relaxing, immunity-boosting combination to soothe her stress away.
Scallop Rattan Tray
Want to add a little something special to mom's everyday decor? A tray is a subtle detail that adds an extra layer to that pile of books or folded linens that makes you feel like you're at a luxurious hotel.
