Gifts for mom under $30
4 min read · Petal Charms
Moms often say they do not need anything. A small gift with a story still makes them smile.
Here are a few gentle ideas that fit under $30.
Her own birth flower
A birth flower necklace in her birth month is from $17. It is simple, and she can wear it every day.
Check the month before you order, since all sales are final.
A flower for each child
Choose the birth flower for each of her children. A birth flower charm comes as a pair for $7, so a few pairs add up gently.
You could give them together with a note about each month.
Make it feel personal
Add a card with a line about why she matters to you. Wrap the piece in tissue with a little twine.
For more ideas, see our Mother's Day guide.
Think about her style
Look at what she already wears every day. If her jewelry box is mostly gold, choose the gold tone. If it is mostly silver, choose the silver tone. The necklace comes in 15, 18 and 20 in, so it can sit a little higher or lower. Add a card with a few warm words, and the gift feels complete.
