Mother’s Day: 5 Gifts that mums really really want this Mother’s Day that’s not just a bunch of flowers

Spring will soon be upon us which means as well as daffodils blooming, Mother’s day is just around the corner. This year Mother’s Day is on Sunday March 10, so with just over a week to go, it’s time to start planning what you are going to buy. 

The easiest and boring answer is a bunch of flowers. As a mother, I agree flowers are always well received but the more thoughtful and personal gifts mean so much more to us. And I’m not talking about handmade cards or pictures or finger paintings - yes we do love them. But on Mother’s Day we want real presents from real shops that are just for us. 

Whether your mum is a foodie or loves a glass of wine or just prefers to be pampered, we have all the gift ideas you need this Mother’s Day. Just don’t forget the card.
