Mother’s Day is approaching and for many that means a panic to buy expensive flowers (that only look alright!) and boxes of overpriced chocolates. That’s why we have taken the time to point out a few gifts your mum may really enjoy this Mother’s Day – they are a bit unusual to the norm but we think you’ll like them!
A DNA testing kit: I mean you have to make sure she’s your mum right? Well really, even for adopted children and foster kids, this would make an interesting and unique gift for a mother who is interested in exploring her ancestry and heritage.
It can be a fun and educational activity for her to learn more about her genetic makeup and family history. Ancestry is the best known one on the planet because it’s easy to use. We traced right back to the 1600s! No kings and queens yet……
A Personalised Linked Circles Necklace: Get the names of those most important carved into a personalised necklace.
If your mum likes a bit of bling, this one she’ll love to wear – no tears at the sentimentality, just joy at wearing those closest, near to her heart!
Silver necklace – personalised circles with names of your choice
Klass Himilayan Salt Lamp: These lamps are still very much popular in the world of mum-who-wants-to-chillax. This lamp is especially cool because it comes in a basket, adding to the style and it’s also ‘dimmable’ so your mum can brighten or dim to her preference. Just keep it away from the pets!
KPUY Succulent Pots: These pots are cute, they’re ceramic and they’ll last longer than a bunch of flowers.
Arriving in a pack of three with a little bamboo tray stand your mum is going to absolutely adore these planters.
Fill them with succulents of your choice and the plants will need even less care than you do! Aloe Vera would be our pick so she can use the gel once it’s grown.
Nix digital photo frame: Your mum may not be the best with tech but I’m sure she will love being able to change photos with the seasons, showing the latest pics you’ve taken or your old baby photos, this digital frame can help your mum share all the pics she loves.
Nice and easy to use, either through the app or even through email!
MEGREZ Cookbook Stand: Tonnes of people get their mum cook books but we all know cooking gets messy. So set her up with a cook book stand, that way she can cook along and keep things clean and tidy.
This one has metal arms in place to hold the pages and folds completely flat.
A kitty tea infuser: For the mum that loves tea and kitties, this silicone tea infuser is a bit different to most, with a cat hanging on the side of the cup as the loose leaf tea brews.
A great way to your mum’s heart is by providing her with the purrrfect cuppa!
The Dreamland Revive Me Neck Wrap: Whether she’s feeling cold or just wants to relax, this little product may look kind of weird but it feels sooooo good.
Covering you in warmth, relieving tension and able to be chucked in the washer and tumble dryer, it’s a winner!
Bubble Slippers: These look absolutely nuts I know, but walk in them and you’re walking on air. They’re so comfy. The badges you see are part of the product, you get sent a whole load of cute pics, slogans and icons so you can really personalise your shoe!
We hope this has helped you find a better gift than petrol flowers and pricey Milk Tray this year but no matter if you got your mum a gift or not, make sure you have a chat, on the phone, face time or in person – let her know she’s special!
