Holiday Gifts She’ll Love: 6 Personalized Ideas Under $50
When it comes to holiday shopping, I’m all about finding gifts that show the people I love just how well I know them. And let’s be real—finding something that makes Mom (yes, I’m looking at you, the glue that holds the family together!) feel special is a serious win.
This year, I’m leaning into gifts that aren’t just pretty but also have that “I see you and I love what I see” vibe.
From cozy, personalized blankets to faith-inspired jewelry that feels like a hug from above, I’ve found 6 perfect gift ideas for mom that blend comfort, meaning, and holiday cheer—all under $50.
Trust me, these are the gifts that’ll light up her face and make her feel truly loved.
Personalized Name Blanket
Celebrate the unique bond you share with your mom with this beautifully crafted Personalized Name Blanket. This cozy and heartfelt gift is a perfect way to show your love and appreciation for all the care she’s given you over the years.
I’m a firm believer that you can never have enough throw blankets. We strew them all over the house, and my kids are always stealing my favorites.
Engraved Scripture Cuff Bracelet
Gift her a gift that helps her take the Word of God with her wherever she goes with an engraved Scripture cuff bracelet.
I’d love to have a handful of cuffs to pick from each morning, arming myself with the truth of God’s Word to go with me throughout my day.
Custom Name Candle
Gift her a scented soy candle personalized with her name or a word that brings her joy, such as “Faith,” “Family,” or “Home,” with warm, holiday-inspired scents.
I love to light a candle in my kitchen in the evenings once dinner is cleaned up to signal “the kitchen is closed” to my family. I’d love a candle with that phrase on the label!
Personalized Recipe Cutting Board
Does she have a favorite family recipe? Give her a custom cutting board with that recipe engraved on it.
I’m not a huge fan of being in the kitchen, but I’d love to have my favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe on display for easy access and as a sentimental tribute to my late great-aunt who shared it with me.
Personalized Faith Journal
A personalized journal is the perfect gift to help her grow in her faith. She’ll love to write out her prayers and record her walk with the Lord.
A journal is always a welcome gift as I try to use mine daily during my quiet time. I love to take notes on the Scripture passage I’m studying, copy quotes from the devotional I’m reading, or write out my prayers to look back and remember what God has done.
Custom Mug Set
Pick a favorite quote, a special date, or tell her how you feel about her with a custom engraved mug set.
As an avid mug-aholic, I would love to receive a custom-engraved mug that speaks to my heart.
