With Mothers Day just around the corner on the 8th of May, and the cut off for online shopping gifts looming, here at The Modern Day Living we are bringing you our favourite last-minute gift ideas for mum. These gifts can range from budget-friendly to high-end and are sure to make your mother feel loved and appreciated this Mother’s Day.
- An experience
If buying a tangible gift for your mother is out of the question, an experience is the perfect mothers day present. Whether this is a voucher to a day spa where your mother can have some much needed alone and relaxation time – or a voucher to an art gallery or the movies where you can spend some time together – either way, your mother will appreciate the thought that has gone into the gift!
- Jewellery
Jewellery is always a winner for a gift for mum if you know her style. It is important to consider the type of jewellery she already wears so that you aren’t purchasing something that is going to clash with her standard rotation of jewellery. For example, if she wears gold jewellery all the time, we would not recommend getting her a silver piece. You can never go wrong with a high-quality pair of gold Huggies in our opinion!
- Flowers
If buying gifts is not standard practice within your family, a nice bunch of flowers is a great gesture to make sure your mother feels loved and appreciated on mothers day, without having to break your budget. If you’re wanting to give more than just flowers, opt for a new beautiful vase to gift along with the flowers.
- Self-care hamper
Mothers are often the glue that holds the family together – they are often the ones that ensure that everyone else in the family is okay and therefore, sometimes they may forget to care for themselves. This is why a self-care hamper is such a great idea for a mothers day present. Include gifts such as bath salts, high-quality tea, some face masks or even a pair of fluffy slippers – anything that your mother can use to help her relax and enjoy some time for herself.
- Framed photo
If you are wanting a personalised gift for your mother, a framed image of the family, or just you and her, is a fantastic idea. Print an image from a happy time, pop it in a frame and every time your mother looks at the image she’ll be taken back to a joyful memory. Level this present up with a personalised frame that may have a unique message engraved on the frame.
