1. Temperature controlled mug
If your mother-in-law is a big coffee drinker, a temperature controlled mug may be just what she needs. This one is lightweight, sleek, and comes with its own charger.
2. Perfume sampler
A Replica fragrance sampler would be the perfect gift for all the fragrance fiends out there. Replica somehow distills some of the most iconic and comforting scents (such as a wood fire, fresh sheets, or a bubble bath) into a high quality fragrance you can wear.
3. Monogrammed serving board
Monograms always seem to go over well with mother-in-laws. This serving board is doubly great because it’s a low tech, functional gift your mother-in-law can get use out of.
4. Yeti wine cup
Whether it’s for wine, coffee, or tea, an insulated cup makes a great choice for a mother-in-law. We particularly love the Yeti ones because of how many color options they have.

If you’re looking to splurge on a beauty queen of a mother-in-law, the Shark FlexStyle might be a great option for you. It comes with multiple attachments, so it works for any style she’s after.

If you have a tea drinker on your hands, consider this stylish electric kettle. We love it because it’s functional but not embarrassing to have out on your counter. The copper color is our preference, but they have other colors available as well.

There’s something about teak wood that feels high end. This option from Teakhaus is sustainably harvest and only a few inches smaller than their large option, which is an America’s Test Kitchen Winner.

A facial steamer is a luxurious option for this Christmas. This one comes in sleek packaging and has reservoirs for essential oils should she want to use them.

Personalized items are always fun to both give and receive. A family blanket is a sweet way to celebrate your in laws in a comfy, casual way. Etsy has multiple options, but we love the simplicity of this one.

Give the gift of relaxation this Christmas with a SpaFinder gift card! Just be sure to check their registry of spas they partner with to ensure there’s one close to your mother-in-law.
16. Cashmere scarf
Naadam is back again, this time with a beautiful teal cashmere scarf to keep the cold days at bay. This is a nice option if your mother-in-law runs cold or just likes to have different options for different outfits. If teal isn’t her style, Naadam offer other colors for you to consider!

A fingerprint necklace makes for a heartwarming gift, particularly if it’s of a grandchild’s print. There’s multiple options available on Etsy, but we love the organic edges of this option.

A mother-in-law who loves to travel would probably love this LED lit travel mirror. It can magnify up to 10x and has multiple lighting level options so it works for any situation. Plus its slim design makes it easy to pack, its a travel essential for sure.
19. Wine of the Month Membership
A prepaid yearlong membership to the Wine of the Month Club is a perfect option for the wine-loving mother-in-law who has it all. They have multiple packages to pick from and you can specify if they’ll get reds, whites, or both, how many shipments, and even how many bottles per shipment.
20. Portable sanitizer
Is your mother-in-law a clean freak (we mean that in the best way possible)? If so, she’ll probably be a big fan of this sleek portable LED sanitizer. It’s lightweight, thin, and fits in purses and drawers, so it’s even great for on the go sanitizing.
