We all want to give our mums the world when it comes to Christmas, and sometimes a box of chocolates just doesn’t feel like enough, or getting your mum the same eye cream that she always uses might seem like you’ve not put much effort in…click here for your guide to buying the ideal eye cream. Many of us are stretching a budgets more and more every year, so with that in mind – how do we find a gift that mum will really love?
Read on for a little inspiration.
New bedding
We’re always being told we don’t get enough sleep – and mum’s are always the first to say how tired they are. So, why not help her get a better night’s sleep with some gorgeous new bedding? You can treat her to some beautiful new bed linen or go a little further and revamp her whole bedspread. New pillows, new duvet, new blankets, throws and cushions galore. Because if anyone deserves a good night’s sleep – it’s your mum!
Pay for a cleaner
I have a feeling many mums would LOVE this! Reducing your mums to-do list will always be a winner, so if you reduce her cleaning and tidying responsibilities by hiring a cleaner for her then she’ll love you for it! It could be a one off, or maybe even a fortnightly thing. Or you could always let her decide.
Get the kids involved
If you’re looking for something really cheap and cheerful, then why not get the kids involved. You could write a poem together, about mum/grandma and frame it. It’ll be extra special and it’s something she can treasure for years to come.
Bake
If your mum taught your everything you know about baking then why not treat her to something you’ve created? You can bake anything for your mum as long as it’s baked with love. Cookies, a cake, brownies or muffins. You can present them in a beautiful box or a hand decorated jar. How cute!
Beauty voucher
Does your mum have a favourite salon that she always goes to? Well, why not get her a voucher to spend there and have a little TLC? Better yet, book both of you a treatment that you can enjoy together and spend some quality time. A massage, facial, manicure or pedicure – as long as you laugh and enjoy each other’s company – you’ll both love it.
Lessons
Is there something that your mum always wishes she’d learnt? Like dancing, cooking a certain type of food, or even learning a new language? Well for Christmas, why not give your mum the gift of learning? Head online and see what you can find or speak to local venues and see what they have coming up in the new year.
Something active
If your mum is on a fitness journey and needs a little encouragement then try something like a fitness tracker, or some new gym outfits that will really boost her confidence. You could even book her into some classes at her favourite gym. Yoga anyone?
