Every day should be Mother's Day if you think about it. But since she only gets one special day just for her (besides maybe her birthday), make sure you get her one of the best Mother's Day gifts you can find. And just because these best gifts for mom are heartfelt and meaningful, that doesn't mean they're expensive. There are plenty of affordable gifts under $50 that will make her feel like you put a lot of thought and money into your purchase.

And of course, it doesn't have to be a gift for your mom, necessarily. Most of these Mother's Day gift ideas, like delicious snacks and an at-home foot spa, are ideal presents no matter who she might have mothered or been a mother figure to. These could be gifts for your wife, gifts for your mother-in-law, or gifts for your grandma. There are practical ideas for home cooks, gifts for bakers, and a few delicious home scents to fill her house with fragrance (and a little love from you).

But if this idea is for your mom, just know that there are plenty of personalized picks that will let her know just how much you appreciate all that she has done for you. She'll absolutely love the heirloom-quality custom recipe binder to pass down to her family or the memory book to jot down little notes each day. Can you picture her smiling through her (happy) tears? Good, mission accomplished!

Here's a few more heartfelt ideas for Mom:
