Ree Drummond Tells Us Which Items From Her New Home Collection Make Great Mother's Day Gifts

Mother's Day will be here before you know it, and it's never too soon to shop for a meaningful gift for the most important woman in your life. At the very least, we owe our mothers and mother figures a moment of appreciation, ideally expressed through a thoughtful present that resonates with your admiration and gratitude. Even if you know Mama like the back of your hand, that doesn't make shopping for her easy. Fortunately, The Pioneer Woman has you covered.

"For me, it's the thought that counts," Ree Drummond tells Southern Living. "Sometimes it's as simple as a sweet little dish or mixing bowl—the fact that it came from my kids makes it extra special, and I love the simplicity of a single item." As a mother of five, Drummond cherishes the small gestures and sees the occasion as "a day for moms to be celebrated, whether that's through gifts, or a meal, or just a phone call."

And Drummond's new The Pioneer Woman collection is an excellent first step if you don't know where to start. “There's a fun mix of pieces for entertaining as well as cookware and gadgets,” she shares. However, she's most excited about the brand's latest "Painted Meadow" pattern for dinnerware and adds that "it is already shaping up to be a fan favorite."

So if you’re in need of some shopping inspiration, we asked Ree Drummond to take us through her exciting new kitchen collection and share some great gifting ideas that will show Mom you care. Shop Ree-approved Mother’s Day gifts below for every budget, from $6 jute placemats to a $69 all-in-one knife block set.

The Pioneer Woman Melamine 12-Piece Dinnerware Set

Drummond insists that the Fresh Floral Melamine Dinnerware Set is an ideal choice “for hosting the perfect spring brunch” outdoors. The set is dishwasher-safe and scratch-resistant, making it durable enough to tote from the kitchen to the patio then back again. Plus, the cheery floral pattern is all you need to spruce up a simple table setting.

The Pioneer Woman 14-Piece Stainless Steel Knife Block Set

If mom spends a reasonable amount of time cooking, Drummond says the stylish knife block kit “is a fantastic all-purpose set of great knives for prep.” It includes spring-loaded kitchen shears, six steak knives, a tourné knife, a paring knife, a chef knife, a utility knife, a bread knife, and a Nakikir knife that all fit in a sleek, compact wood storage block. You can grab the set in cream with a vibrant floral design or solid shades like off-white, gray, teal, and black.

The Pioneer Woman 12-Piece Ceramic Dinnerware Set

"The Painted Meadow dinnerware set is probably my favorite thing this season," Drummond admits. "Creating a pretty table is something that I've gotten more into lately, now that I have the time and the kids are grown. It's fun to layer and mix and match, and no two tables I set are ever alike!" The 12-piece set can comfortably accommodate four guests with salad plates, pasta bowls, and dinner plates, which are adorned in the brand's new charming pattern.

The Pioneer Woman Cowboy Rustic Brown Olive Wood Turner

If Mom enjoys cooking and baking, then Drummond suggests the Cowboy Rustic Turner as an "essential gift idea." The simple design is as stylish as it is functional, and the olive wood material is uber sturdy, so Mom can use it to serve a freshly baked casserole or mix up some heavy-duty baking ingredients.

The Pioneer Woman 10-Piece Melamine Mixing Bowl Set

You can't go wrong with a versatile mixing bowl set that not only includes lids, but also nests within itself for clutter-free storage. Drummond praises the 10-piece set for being "great to display on the countertop and to mix/bake." Mom will have no issue whipping up her famous homemade BBQ sauce and presenting it in the same gorgeous bowl.

The Pioneer Woman Stainless Steel Can Cooler Tumbler

"Big drink tumblers are everywhere now," notes Drummond. That's exactly why you should consider a stunning yet practical style that Mama can take on the go. The stainless steel construction will keep her beverage cold for up to 24 hours or warm for up to 12 hours, and the resealable lid can conveniently fit a straw for easy sipping.
