Finding the perfect Mother’s Day gift can be tricky. Especially for those mums who are adamant that they ‘don’t want any presents’ this year! Our solution? Think outside the box 😉
Mums are notoriously humble. They never want to make a fuss! So how do you show appreciation for that special lady in your life, when all she wants is a low-key Mother’s Day (sans gifts)?
‘Experience’ gifts are a great way to go. Spend some quality time with your mum. Make some memories. We guarantee these five last minute gift ideas will make her smile!
1. Organise a cheesy family photo
It’s all well and good to have a professionally-made portrait, but the best family photos are the silly ones that show your true character!
Make a few phone calls, get the gang together, set up the tripod (or the selfie stick) and take some shots mum will be proud to tag on her Facebook 😉
2. Set up a high-tea at home
If mum likes to keep things casual, how about a high-tea at home? Pick up her favourite sweets (or bake them yourself!) and enjoy an hour or two in each other’s company. Trust us, mums love deep and meaningful chats over tea and biscuits.

3. Get crafty!
Remember when finger painting with mum was the best day ever? Get those feel-good vibes back by doing a little DIY project together.
Make a terrarium or an autumn candle holder – it’s easy peasy and you’ll end up with a Mother’s Day gift that’s handmade and you’ll both treasure.
4. Have a movie marathon
Even more casual is setting up a home cinema for mum! Make sure you’ve got all her favourite films on hand (including musicals and classics!) plus plenty of popcorn and snacks. All that’s left is to cosy up together in the blanket.
