Mother’s Day is the one day of the year that Mothers have an excuse to kick back, relax and be spoilt by their children. It’s a wonderful excuse (not that you should have one) to pamper your Mum and show her how much you appreciate her.
My son Little K’s birthday falls on the same day as Mother’s Day this year. He’s going to be three and although I can’t expect breakfast in bed or a ‘day off’ as such, they always make fantastic cards and little gifts at his nursery. These home-made gifts made with love are always the best gifts to get for your mother. But if you’re reading this then you’re probably not a toddler and making a hand-printed gift for your Mum may be a little odd…
So as with all of my gift ideas blog posts, I’ve trawled the online shops and selected some fabulous Mother’s Day gifts for the home. I’ve chosen gifts for the home in particular, because if your mum is as house proud as I am – it’s always lovely to get something new for the home!
This lavender Yankee Candle would make a wonderful Mother’s Day gift. Lavender has a wonderful calming effect and is the perfect soothing scent for your Mother’s bedroom. Yankee Candle kindly sent me a sample to try out and as I suffer with insomnia on occasion, I was eager to see if burning this candle before bed time would help improve sleep quality.
I placed the candle on the chest of drawers in my bedroom and not only does it look great, but the lavender fragrance is divine!
Give your Mum an excuse to bake more lovely cakes with the fab personalised cake tin (so no need to worry if your Mum isn’t called Kate…). But you’ll need to order in advance as they’ll need time to put your Mum’s name on this gift!
1. Retro-style radio from Ancestral Collections £49 | 2. Copper and glass photo frames from Anthropologie £14-18 | 3. Personalised cake tin from Handpicked Collection £39.95 | 4. Set of three ceramic heart-shaped bowls from Oliver Bonas £15
Or why not treat your mum to a stylish day out in London? Here are some great offers that I’ve found:
- Afternoon Tea on the Thames with City Cruises – JUST £22.50
- City Cruises Mother’s Day Lunch – JUST £39
- Bateaux London Sunday Jazz Cruise – JUST £43.20
Hope you all have a wonderful Mother’s Day!
