No matter who “Mom” is to you — whether they gave birth to you, raised you, or adopted you as their own — they all deserve a little extra love.

In order to get the gift ideas going, we asked you what makes a great gift or experience for moms in Austin. Our guide with 5 local Mother’s Day gift ideas showcases your suggestions + where you can find them around the Capital City. ❤️

“You don’t have to get me anything this year.”

If the mother figure in your life has never been one for extravagant gifts or celebrations, show them you’re thinking about them by picking up a bouquet of their favorite flowers from Good Juju Flower Farm . A hand-crafted card from Paper Place would also be a great opportunity to express how you feel about their impact in your life. Sometimes a thoughtful word (or newsletter) can be the greatest gift to someone, in our humble opinion.

Drinks on us, Mom

Here’s a toast to all the Austin mother figures out there. Take them out for Mother’s Day Tea and champagne at Hotel Granduca Austin or go wine tasting at Fall Creek Vineyards in Driftwood. If mom prefers to enjoy their spirits at home, treat them to a gift-wrapped speciality wine from The Austin Wine Merchant .

If Mom’s imaginary best friend is Joanna Gaines

Gift Mom a sparkling clean house by booking a local, professional cleaning service (with great reviews) on Thumbtack. And for the mom whose garden is their pride and joy, have flowering trees, shrubs + hydrangeas delivered right to their door. Or if Mom just wants to pretend HGTV came to visit, book a getaway in a beautiful vacation house — bonus points if it’s to come visit you right here in Austin . We have all the heart eyes for this home .

Kick back and relax, we’ve got Mom covered

Okay, maybe you just want to lounge around at home with Mom. Give the gift of relaxation with a “Best Mom Ever” care package from Bon Vivant Gift Boxes, or a eucalyptus + lavender candle from Slow North. You could also gift them some helping hands by sending Maidsway a local deep clean home service — to come in and help pick up the place.

Mom reps ATX the best

Know a mom who represents ATX unlike any other? Give them the ultimate gift of hometown pride with a branded shirt or hat from the 6AM Shop so they can strut their stuff around town repping their city. How does Mom take their coffee or tea in the morning? Maybe black, maybe with a dash of cream, but definitely in an Austin branded ceramic mug .
