Mom’s Christmas Wish List: What Mom Really Wants For Christmas

It’s funny, mom can mention all year what she wants or likes, but she still gets random presents for Christmas. I get it. Not all brains work like the mom brain. So, here you go. You’re welcome. Here is this mom’s Christmas wish list.

Picking the perfect Christmas gift is hard, especially for loved ones. You want them to enjoy their gift, and sometimes it’s just hard to know if they will or not.

What you need to know about most moms is that they have a hard time buying for themselves.

This means that buying a gift mom truly loves doesn’t have to be an unsolvable riddle. Consider her interests, and what she doesn’t have that relates to them.

Trust me, she would rather have something she can enjoy and use rather than receiving a gift she will store in the corner of a room.

There’s something for every mom on this list!

What Mom Really Wants For Christmas

Mom doesn’t want to receive a zillion gifts.

Mom’s only goal during Christmas is to create magic for her children and family. (Read about the pressure moms feel during Christmas here).

But you can add to the magic of Christmas by helping her feel noticed and appreciated.

You do not have to buy mom anything to help her feel noticed and appreciated. All it takes is a kind comment letting her know you see her and what she is doing.

This Mom’s Christmas Wish List

Black Combat Boots

Black combat boots can seriously be worn so many ways. They are a staple for any closet.

They don’t have to be combat boots though. Any boots that fits her style would be a great gift.

Birthday Board

After a while, there are too many birthdays and celebrations to keep up with mentally.

This birthday board adds a fun farmhouse vibe to any room and also helps mom stay organized.

Sports Mom Shirt

Does she have kiddos in sports? If so, one of her favorite things is supporting them while they are playing, and she is going to love a new t-shirt!

Chalkboard Menu

Does mom plan meals for the week?

A great gift idea would be a versatile hanging/standing chalkboard she can keep up with her menu on.

Ulta Beauty Gift Card

I promise, mom wants some kind of makeup, skin care product, or the like.

Instead of picking it out for her, let her do her own shopping and give her an Ulta gift card.

Ponytail Hat

See this Amazon product in the original post

It’s hard for women to find a good ball cap that they feel fits them right. A ponytail hat solves that problem!

Fedora Hat

See this Amazon product in the original post

Fedora hats are seriously in.

Yoga Pants With Pockets

See this Amazon product in the original post

If she’s ever had yoga pants with pockets, it’s hard to wear anything without them. If she’s never worn yoga pants with pockets, these will be a game changer!

Customized Gifts

Moms love sentimental keepsakes. Any customizable gift is going to be a great idea.

Candles (or anything that makes the house smell good)

This may seem like just a “filler” kind of gift, but most moms want smell good things.

You can’t go wrong with a good candle or 4.

Mom’s Christmas Wish List

Chances are, mom skipped out on a lot of the items she wanted throughout the year, simply because she felt guilty at the thought of spending money on herself.

Instead of spending countless minutes trying to find the ultimate gift that she may never use, try to remember some things she’s mentioned wanting or liking over the past few months.
