Even though Mother’s Day is always on the second Sunday of May, sometimes the holiday manages to sneak up on you, and before you know it, you’re running to the closest drugstore and sifting through the leftover cards and picked-over gifts. If, despite your best efforts, time got away from you and you’ve realized that Mother’s Day is, in fact, just around the corner (FYI, this year it falls on May 12), don’t panic. You still have enough time to find a thoughtful gift that shows her just how much you appreciate all she does—even if you did get it at the eleventh hour.
If you’re scrambling for a last-minute Mother’s Day gift for your mom, grandmother, mother-in-law or any of the other mother figures in your life, we’ve got you covered with all the great gifts that don’t feel like an afterthought. From a book subscription and cozy slippers to the most gorgeous flowers and soothing self-care sets, these are the best Mother’s Day gifts for those of you that ended up procrastinating on the present front—oh, and don’t forget a Mother’s Day card!
Instead of a nondescript gift card, give her this six-book Book of the Month membership, so she can discover new reads—plus, these are all hardcovers. It’s perhaps the best way to send a subscription box, since she can individually select which book interests her.
Replace her tired old wire headphones with the latest Apple AirPod Maxes, which just so happen to be available with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
Flowers don’t have to be a tired cliché—that is, as long as you know what kind of bouquet to buy. Winston Flowers’ gorgeous peony-filled bouquet is a luxe gift she’ll adore, bringing warmth and a touch of spring into her home. Winston Flowers ships nationwide, but also has same-day flower delivery in New York and Boston.

Replace her old coffee maker with this sleek and compact Illy machine, with can make either a single or lungo espresso. If you want to add on a few extras, complete the set with branded coffee mugs and extra espresso blends, which would be the perfect complement to Mother’s Day brunch.
If she’s a Pilates enthusiast, you can’t go wrong with a subscription to the Pilates Class, which includes tons of at-home workouts and other self-care and wellness-focused offerings, like healthy recipes and meditations. While you could go for a monthly subscription, we think she deserves the full year, and will so appreciate it. If she’s a new mom or soon-to-be first time mom, consider the Birthing Class, from the same founders as the Pilates Class—it’s a new online platform focused on the prenatal and postnatal experience.
