Anything you give your mom for Mother's Day is likely going to be a hit — this is the woman, after all, who wore the macaroni necklace you made in kindergarten and considered it haute couture. If you want to show her how far you have come in the gift-giving department, consider one of these 11 thoughtful presents. They are perfect for moms, grandmothers, aunts, stepmoms and any other maternal figure you want to celebrate.
Funko Pop! Yourself
Make mom famous with her very own Funko Pop!

You also choose an outfit — there is the option of a "#1 Mom" t-shirt — plus two accessories. Like the Pop! figures sold in stores, the figurine comes in a signature box that fits on any shelf.

Patricia Nash Renata Shoulder Bag
The Renata shoulder bag gets better over time
A solid, well-crafted leather handbag never goes out of style. The Renata shoulder bag fits the bill, made of distressed full-grain leather that is soft to the touch. Because the leather was vegetable-tanned to a deep Oceano blue, over time it will develop a patina, giving the bag its own one-of-a-kind look.
$229, Patricia Nash
