The prettiest birthstone jewelry for Mother’s Day gifts, starting at $24
Finding thoughtful Mother’s Day gifts is no easy feat. Some moms assure you that they don’t want any gifts, but as much as they might try to convince you otherwise, almost every mom would like to receive something meaningful from their kids. So, do yourself (and your mom) a favor and pick out something special for her this year. A sentimental gift fitting for the woman who gave birth to you? Birthstone jewelry.
Birthstone jewelry is something your mom will wear for years, thinking of you each time she looks at the colorful baubles. Choose either you mom’s birthstone or your own, if you think she’d rather represent your birthday in her jewelry. Another option is finding baubles with multiple gemstones, representing both you and your family’s birthdays. Plus, some of the pricier options are the perfect Mother’s Day gifts to go in on with your siblings as a combined present. While some birthstone jewelry can look gaudy and bulky, we found delicate and elegant pieces.
