I have 37 years of experience buying mother’s day gifts but now I’m a mum myself, I also have a good idea of what every mum would like to be treated to. Lie ins, tea in bed, massage, facial and time out to read a book am I right?
Because she takes you out for lunch on a weekday, surprises you with your favourite rosè or agrees to be your babysitter on tap. Whatever the reason, like me you may want to spoil your Mum this year. That’s right, there’s only a couple of days left until Mother’s Day.
Are you struggling to find the perfect gift to surprise your Mum with this year?
Here are a few fancy gifts to choose from:
Heavenly Hampers from Fortnum & Mason
You really can’t beat Fortnums for gorgeous gifts. Their shop is packed to the brim with posh teas, condiments and sweet treats that will really make your Mum feel special. Surprise your Mum with a Fortnum & Mason hamper for maximum brownie points.
Five Dollar Shake Cards
One of my favourite things to do on Mother’s Day is to write some meaningful words in a card and Five Dollar Shake cards are quite simply stunning. Put some prettiness in the post for her if you can’t stretch to a lavish gift.
Jo Malone
Mother’s Day just got a lot easier thanks to the clever team at Jo Malone. You can buy one of their stunning colognes and present it to your Mum on a bed of flowers. Perfection.
The Dream Cloud Bouquet
Is it even Mother’s day without a stunning bouquet? Your London Florist are my go-to brand of flowers especially if you are shopping for a young mum or buying a mother’s day gift from a little person as they are the most amazing quality and they have the wow factor. What a thoughtful and luxurious gift!
Biscuiteers Edible Cards
Has your Mum got a sweet tooth? You can’t beat these cute cards made entirely from biscuits.
Lakrids by Bülow Chocolates
On a recent trip to Harvey Nichols, this brand caught my eye and they have the most amazing Love collection that’s perfect for Mother’s day. Gourmet Liquorice covered chocolate treats are just the perfect way to show you care! When you bite into the glossy ball of white chocolate-covered liquorice you’ll find an adorable heart-shaped design at the centre! There’s strawberry and cream and fruity caramel flavours but if you want to go all out, opt for the Love Selection Box!
Bettys
If in doubt, go to Bettys. This is my usual motto when searching for a gift for any occasion.
How will you spoil your Mum this Mother’s Day?
