10 Mother's Day Gifts She'll Love

by Claire Green on

It's just one week before Mother's Day, and with restrictions still in place, it's going to be another annual celebration in lockdown. That shouldn't deter you from doing something special, though. You might not be able to head out for afternoon tea or a meal at your favourite eating spot, but with a little planning, you can still make the day memorable.

Short of time? We've pulled together an edit of our favourite gift ideas to give mum a treat she'll adore. They're all available online, but you'll have to get shopping this weekend to make sure they arrive on time!

box_of_mail_order_flowers

Bloom & Wild Flowers, from £23

This blooming fabulous brand has changed the way we look at mail order flowers. Long gone are the pitiful wilted bouquets of the past. Flowers are packed flat and can be posted through the letterbox, so your recipient doesn't even have to be home. They arrive in bud and burst into life over 48 hours. Delicate flowers are wrapped in recyclable petal protectors. You receive two lots of flower food, one to use immediately and one for a nutrition top-up a few days later. We adore the cute messages like 'shh, your flowers are sleeping' and the 'how-to' tips on arranging your flowers like a pro.

Bloom and Wild offer a range of Mother's Day options starting at just £23 for the Anna, a dreamy mix of powdery alstroemeria. You can add lovely little treats like Charbonnel champagne truffles, or Cowshed hand cream and delivery is free.  Send flowers here

Jo Malone Yellow Hibiscus Cologne 30ml, from £52

Let's face it, any gift from Jo Malone would be a hit this Mother's Day – what's not to love about the fabulous range of fragrances, candles and bath and body products?

We're rather taken by the Yellow Hibiscus cologne with its heady combination of hibiscus, rose and white musk. It's possibly because it conjures up tropical vibes, so it makes us think of long-forgotten vacations. Still, we also love the sumptuous gift-wrapping options that make it feel like an incredibly decadent treat.

Given the chance that seeing mum in person this year might be off the cards, we also love the innovative video messaging service that you can add free of charge at checkout. Shop here

bOX OF SHOWER STEAMERS

Shower Steamers by Cleverfy, £19.99

Spas might still be off-limits, but that doesn't mean you can't gift the gift of pampering. Cleverfy's box set of aromatherapy fizzies promise to deliver spa relaxation from the comfort of your own shower cubicle or wet room. They use only pure essential oils and nature-identical fragrance, and you get the real benefits of aromatherapy. Simply place a steamer in the corner of the shower unit and let the stress melt away!

Set includes 6 Shower Fizzies: Lavender, Eucalyptus, Vanilla, Watermelon, Grapefruit and Peppermint and costs £19.99 from Amazon.co.uk

 mother and daughter in bathrobe

Personalised Bathrobes and Dressing Gowns, from £99.95

Few gifts last until the next Mother's Day and beyond, so what better way than to envelop your mum in a warm embrace than with a Bown of London ladies dressing gown. We have the most extensive range of premium quality dressing gowns in the UK, including short bathrobes for women, hooded ladies' dressing gowns and classic white spa bathrobes.

We've recently added to our ladies' bathrobe collection with three stunning new styles.

Our Sunset ladies dressing gown comes in a refreshing palette of mint macaroon, cornflower blue, periwinkle, azure and old navy. In contrast, the new hooded ladies Patchwork bathrobe offers a sophisticated riot of colour in peachy terracotta, wild heather and lemon curd, coral, fuchsia, and strawberry with glade and jade greens, aqua, airforce blue and royal indigo.

Artisan is the third of our new arrivals and joins our designer ladies' dressing gown collection with its cosy, slouched good and sporty stripes. The berry smoothie colour palette has been selected to deliver arresting hues of hot pink, mulberry, sumptuous plum, redcurrant, coral and raspberry. Dusty rose, blush pink and blossom white temper the vibrant striped design, resulting in a heavyweight bathrobe full of energy and optimism.

If you hurry, you can add free personalisation to your dressing gown and have mums' initials monogrammed onto her bathrobe for a genuinely personalised and unforgettable gift.

ladies slippers

Porte & Paire Slippers, from £190

The perfect addition to her designer dressing gown is a pair of must-have slippers. We're not talking run of the mill High Street slippers here. We're talking Italian made slippers that could pass as daywear. Enter Porte & Paire's shearling-lined slides – chic enough for upscale home lounging (and perfect with your Bown of London ladies' bathrobe). Equally glam with track sets, knitted dresses and your WFH wardrobe, you'll feel at the top of your game for Va-Va Zooming and Stylish Skyping. The cross over design is elegant and on-trend, and the flexible soles promise comfort with class. They're exclusive to net-a-porter, so you'll be scoring some points on the unique gift front.

Smythson Piece of Cake Notebook, £89

Now here's a sweet treat that won't make her feel guilty for overindulging. We are big fans of anything Smythson, but this 'Piece of Cake' notebook takes the biscuit. The quality is enduring, and the packaging is as desirable as the products themselves.

The Chelsea notebook is one of Smythson's most popular scribblers and is crafted from Panama cross-grain leather with 144 leaves of signature, gilt-edged, pale blue Featherweight paper

 woman with yoga block and mobile phone

Fiit Yoga Subscription, from £19.99 per month

Health is at the forefront of everyone's minds as we continue to wend our way through the mire that is Covid_19. There are many ways to give the gift of health, and it doesn't always have to be concerned with just the physical. Show her you care this Mother's Day with something a little less esoteric that encourages her to nurture her own health and wellbeing.

Yoga is well known for its benefits, including stress-reduction, improved flexibility and general fitness. It's easily done at home with little or no additional equipment and great for all ages and abilities.

candle making kit

Candle Making Kit by Willow & Finn, £49

Mother's Day is all about taking a break and being pampered. Candles feature high on the pampering agenda, and though you could gift a ready-made designer candle, a kit gives two gifts for the price of one – experience and relaxation.

British candle maker Willow & Finn offer a fabulous candle making kit that ticks the eco-friendly and sustainability boxes, offering all you need to make clean, soy wax candles with essential oil blends.

The kit arrives in a smart recycled box with a magnetic lid for storing all your gear in between sessions.

box of assorted chocolates

Hotel Chocolat Mother's Day Sleekster, £22.95

There's no getting away from it. Chocolate is a classic Mother's Day gift, best when paired with a boxset and bathrobe and a Do Not Disturb sign. That is unless it's to replenish the fizz or pour another cup of Earl Grey!

If you're going to do chocolate, for heaven's sake, make it Hotel Chocolat. No, we don't have shares in this most decadent purveyor of Cocoa-based bounty, but we sure wish we did. This special edition gift box offers 15 delicious variants, including caramel cheesecake, fudge sundae, Eton mess, raspberry smoothie and billionaire's shortbread. Drool! Shop Hotel Chocolat
