I know I alwaaaays say this, but isn't time flying - how is it Mother's Day next weekend? I feel like it was Christmas only last week yet here we are, mid-March, on the countdown to summer...
For today's post, I thought I'd compile a little Mother's Day gift guide to help inspire your shopping. I mean, after all that our Mums have done (and continue to do) for us, a scented candle or a bunch of flowers is the very least we can do, huh?
Jewellery
I don't know about you, but I NEVER go out and buy myself fancy jewellery for the sake of it. I mean, I'd love to, but I never find myself wandering around the shops of a weekend and deciding to drop £100 on a necklace. Maybe one day, eh? So, for now, nice jewellery is saved for birthdays and special occasions, and Mother's Day is just that. I was recently gifted the most beautiful necklace from Matthew Calvin and I cannnnnot get enough of it. Another firm favourite jewellery shop of mine is Pandora - I just love stacking up all of their minimalist rings. Other jewellery shops worth a browse this Mother's Day are: Daisy Jewellery, Wild Fawn Jewellery and Jewellery Box.
Toiletries
THE classic gift. Whether it be a shower gel and body lotion set, or a hand wash and hand cream set, toiletries are always a great go-to gift. I mean, what with the Coronavirus, a nice hand soap wouldn't go amiss right now. As I'm sure a lot of you will know, I'm currently embarking on a mission to be a little more sustainable and trying to reduce the number of disposable products I use. Linked to this, I was recently introduced to Friction Free Shaving* who are a razor subscription company. They produce high-quality razors, with recyclable blades, meaning no part of the razor is thrown into landfill! They've brought out a range of gift packs for Mother's Day, so if you're trying to think of something a little different but eco-conscious, definitely have a look!
Candles
Can you beat a new, cosy candle? I think not. Anything that makes a room smell delicious is a win in my books, so obviously I had to include candles in this gift guide. I was sent this Rituals* one a while ago and it's really nice, it smells just like a spa. Other favourite shops for candles include: Yankee Candle (obviously), Homesense and Anthropologie. I'm not sure what else there is to say about candles other than they smell great, add a nice touch of warmth to a room and Mums love a candle...
What have you bought your Mum for Mother's Day?
