Best Lego Gifts For Mother’s Day – Save On Flower And Art Building Sets At Amazon


Flowers are one of the most common Mother's Day gifts, but instead of buying a fresh bouquet of roses or tulips this weekend, what if you built a bouquet of pretty flowers with the special woman on your shopping list? Lego's Icons line has spawned all sorts of cool building kits, including a collection of pretty flowers that are both fun to put together and worthy of display.

Ahead of Mother's Day, which is this Sunday, May 12, we put together a list of Lego flowers and art that would make great gifts. Almost all of the Lego sets on this list are available for under $50, including gorgeous wildflower bouquets and a collection of potted plants. It's possible to get a great Lego gift for as little as $10 thanks to the discounts at Amazon ahead of Mother's Day. With Amazon Prime, you can still get these eye-catching Lego gifts delivered before Sunday (as of May 8).

Quick look: Best Mother's Day Lego gifts

Even if you know the recipient doesn't want to build Lego sets, these could still make for thoughtful gifts, as you could build the flowers beforehand and present them in a vase that hopefully will remain in one piece for years to come. Or you could gift her the unbuilt set and make a Mother's Day activity of it. Of course, there's also the chance Mom will want to put together the Lego kit on her own. We can't say we'd blame her. Piecing together Lego flowers is relaxing and fun.

In addition to the Lego flower sets, we included a few other artsy Lego sets that could be of interest to both experienced Lego enthusiasts and moms who simply appreciate a thoughtful and beautiful gift.

If you're looking for a Mother's Day gift that is practical, fun, and has a good chance of being used daily, you can save big on a wide variety budget-friendly tech during this week's Amazon device sale. From Echo Show displays that can become smart home hubs to the high-end Kindle Scribe for big readers in your life, Amazon devices are discounted to some of the lowest prices we've seen.


Lego Icons Tiny Plants Creative Building Set (758 pieces)


$40 ($50)

One of the best Lego floral sets is the Lego Icons Creative Building Set, which is ideal for moms who love to garden or display plants around their house. All nine miniature builds are set inside terracotta-inspired pots. If you plan on building these yourself and are shopping on budget for multiple people, you could give a few of the plants to each mom on your shopping list. This set is on sale for $40.


Lego Icons Wildflower Bouquet (939 pieces)


$48 ($60)

This large-scale project includes close to 1,000 pieces and builds a bouquet of colorful wildflowers when complete. It can be displayed solo or placed in a vase for a more realistic presentation. You can even get a nice discount on this particular set right now.


Lego Icons Succulents (771 pieces)


$40 ($50)

This large gift set for Lego lovers lets you build nine unique succulents. Each one is individually contained within a black stand, allowing you to display them together or place them across various rooms. You can save $10 on this set at Amazon.


Lego Icons Bouquet of Roses (822 pieces)


$60

This 822-piece bouquet of roses is probably traditionally thought of as a Valentine's Day gift idea, but if your shopping for the mother of your children, you can't go wrong with red roses for Mother's Day either. This is a fairly intricate build that would be a fun activity on your next date night. Along with a dozen roses, it comes with four springs of baby's breath white flowers.


Lego Icons Orchid Artificial Plant (608 pieces)


$40 ($50)

Build an intricate orchid with this 608-piece set, complete with petals, pot, stems, and leaves. It's a sizable plant too, clocking in at over 15 inches tall. If the mom on your shopping list has a garden filled with orchids, this set is most likely your best bet. You can save $10 on this pretty orchid at Amazon.


Lego Icons Flower Bouquet (756 pieces)


$48 ($60)

When you finish building this set, you'll have a wide assortment of 15 flowers--including snapdragons, daisies, and poppies. Like some of the other sets on this list, you could gift a few flowers to each woman in your life, or you could arrange all 15 in a single vase.


Lego Cherry Blossoms (430 pieces)


$9.59 ($15)

It'll take some time to stick all the colorful flowers onto their stem, but building this Lego set is worth the effort. It includes two twigs adorned with cherry blossoms that measure over 14 inches long.


Lego Creator 3-in-1 Watering Can (420 pieces)


$24 ($30)

This adorable little Lego set is technically geared toward children, but all Lego sets are for everyone. The 420-piece kit lets the gardener in your life build a small watering can that serves as the vase for the artificial flowers and butterflies. The flowers and butterflies aren't meant to imitate their real counterparts. Instead, this set has the vibe of an animated movie.


Lego Lotus Flowers (220 pieces)


$12 ($13)

This affordable gift for Lego lovers features three flowers, all measuring over 12 inches long and great for displaying in a slim vase.


Lego Roses Building Kit (120 pieces)


$13.49 ($15)

Affordable and easy to build, this two-rose set is the perfect frugal gift idea. Consider using the money you save to pick up a nice vase.


Lego Sunflowers Building Kit (191 pieces)


$12 ($15)

Don't worry--these aren't as massive as real sunflowers. The kit includes two small sunflowers along with long green stems, making them easy to toss in a vase or atop a shelf.


Lego Super Mario Piranha Plant (540 pieces)


$59 ($60)

Modeled after the iconic Super Mario Bros. enemy, this Piranha Plant Lego set clocks in at 540-pieces and is fully posable. The green Warp Pipe acts as the pot, so you'll have yourself a potted Piranha Plant that's ready for display. The Lego Piranha is very cute, too. In fact, some might say it's beautiful (it is beautiful). If Mom is a Super Mario fan, she will obviously adore this lovable Piranha Plant.


Lego Icons Dried Flower Centerpiece (812 pieces)


$40 ($50)

If you've ever noticed decorations in the center of the kitchen or dining room table at family dinners, chances are the special woman on your shopping list will appreciate this gorgeous Lego floral centerpiece. This 812-piece set includes an artificial rose and gerbera complemented by smaller plants around them. This set would also look great as a wall decoration. Plus, it's on sale for $10 off at Amazon.


Lego Ideas The Insect Collection (1,111 pieces)


$80

For the mom who loves all the little insects that hang around her garden, the Lego Ideas Insect Collection is a very cool set that includes three builds: a Blue Morpho Butterfly, Hercules Beetle, and Chinese Mantis.


Lego Art The Fauna Collection (644 pieces)


$55 ($60)

If the woman on your shopping list likes looking up at birds while on walks or lounging on the back patio, Lego Art The Fauna Collection is a cute 644-piece building set featuring a pair of colorful Macaw Parrots. The only downside to these parrots is that they won't talk, which is indeed a bummer.


Lego Art Hokusai - The Great Wave (1,810 pieces)


$85 ($100)

We imagine she doesn't have any art hanging on her wall that is this cool. A recreation of The Great Wave off Kanagawa, a famous painting created in 1831 by Japanese artist Hokusai, this 1,810 piece set is stunning. Just be aware that this isn't for Lego novices, so it should be put together with an experienced builder.


Lego Ideas Tales of the Space Age (638 pieces)


$45 ($65)

Lego Ideas Tales of the Space Age is a perfect gift science fiction fans and those who simply have a general interest in space. The 638-piece build creates four postcards that can be displayed separately or together. Lego says it's inspired by sci-fi from the 1980s.


Lego Modern Art Abstract Wall Art (805 pieces)


$42 ($50)

This Lego set is the only one on this list that some people would actually hate to receive as a gift. Abstract art certainly isn't for everyone, and chances are the mom on your list sees a lot of abstract art created by her kids that she pretends is beautiful already. But hey, this set will be greatly appreciated by some. What's cool about this is that there's no right or wrong way to build it. Just like normal tubs of Lego bricks, your imagination is key. The difference here is that this 805-piece set comes with an assortment of odd pieces and shapes that you'll often see in abstract art.
