Somehow, time got away from you, and now Mother’s Day is right around the corner (this year it falls on Sunday, May 14). What now? Before you resort to promising an IOU and potentially letting your sweet mama down, consider this: There are plenty of easy yet thoughtful last-minute Mother’s Day gifts you can choose from. (And, no, you don't need to have the crafting skills or the time to make a DIY present at home.) These days, there are even tons of thoughtful virtual presents she'll absolutely love—think cooking classes or wine tastings you can do together for the perfect bonding opportunity. But if you have your heart set on having something delivered to her, fear not. There are countless online retailers that can send a Mother’s Day gift from a daughter or son in record time.

Tap your Amazon Prime subscription for that coveted complimentary one- or two-day delivery, or opt for rush shipping from a favorite like Anthropologie or Nordstrom for something unique and beautiful that she's sure to love. Whether she's a new mom, your beloved grandma, or you totally forgot to get something for your wife or partner, you can rest easy knowing that every item on this list will be at her doorstep (along with that heartfelt card) by May 14. (And pro tip: Just because you're working with a smaller shipping window doesn't mean you can't get her something unique and personalized.)
