Whether you take the sentimental route or the more lavish path with your gift-giving, there is no better feeling than watching your loved one's face light up when they unwrap them, especially when the person unwrapping the gift is mum.

Mother's Day is a wonderful time of year when we get to celebrate and say special thanks to the women in our lives who have made us who we are. While a bouquet of flowers and a meaningful card are more than enough for many, we know there are people who love to make this day extra special. You can do this with a thoughtful and sometimes personal touch. Let's take a look at five brilliant, touching and creative gifts that will be sure to make your mum feel loved and appreciated this Mother's Day.

Personalised Jewellery

Let's start with a classic but incorporate a twist. Jewellery has been a go-to gifting option for both men and women for years. However, there are now so many ways in which we can make these rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets more special. Many jewellery stores now offer the option to personalise their ranges, be that with a message, initials or birthstones. Opting to gift personalised jewellery not only gives that special someone a beautiful keepsake but, when worn, reminds them of the special bond shared between you both.

A Luxury Spa Day

Every woman, be that a mum, sister, auntie or friend, will deserve and love a relaxing day of rejuvenation and treatments at a spa. Whether this is your very own 'spa at home' experience, with soothing background noise and essential oils or a trip to a professional therapist to help relieve tension and built-up stress, these massages will give Mum a chance to unwind and indulge in some much-needed self-care. With many options to choose from, including facials, hot stones or a manicure, a spa day is sure to make any mum feel appreciated, refreshed and loved this Mother's Day.

Canvas Wall Art

Mother's Day is a perfect chance to buy your mum some finishing touches to put around her house. Canvas wall art makes for a timeless, meaningful and beautiful addition to any home, be it stunning landscapes, customised typography or abstract art. You will be able to find the perfect canvas that represents your mum's personality, style, and interests and compliments her home. For a more personal touch, you may opt for a canvas piece that holds some sentimental value, such as a previous holiday spot, memorable moment or family tradition. This gift will hang proudly in her home, reminding her of your bond and how much she is appreciated.

Handwritten Letters

Sometimes, the best gifts are the simplest, and in this case, a handwritten letter could be the most meaningful, too. This is a gift that requires no wrapping or huge expense, just a little time, consideration and a pen & paper. With everyone so focused on social media, digital communication and materialistic items, a handwritten letter will stand out as a thoughtful and personal gesture kept for years to come. Take the time to write your loved one a heartfelt letter expressing your love and gratitude whilst reminiscing on the past, your memories together and the things she has done for you. This year, let Mum know just how much she means to you with words from the heart.

A Personalised Hamper

A personalised hamper is a great, fun, and thoughtful way of curating a selection of your mum's favourite things. She could be an avid reader, a lover of baking, or someone who enjoys self-care time; either way, the perfect hamper will exist. From books, coffee mugs and bookmarks to facemasks, haircare and bath bombs, you can fill these baskets with smaller items and gifts you know she will use and love. Take this one step further with personalisation. There are many ways to do this, from personalising the individual items or having a bespoke basket embellished with her name or initials. Whether you have a hamper full of sweet treats, scents or decorative items, your mum is sure to love this indulgent gesture. Get creative and give the gift that keeps on giving - show Mum how truly loved and valued she is!

Mother's Day is the perfect reason to show the special women in your life, whether that be a mother, grandmother, auntie or life-long friend, just how much they mean to you. Whether you choose to give the gift of a personalised hamper of their favourite snacks, brand new wall art for their home or customised jewellery and a handwritten note from the heart, the most important thing of all is to ensure they feel loved and appreciated and special on this wholesome day. This Mother's Day, celebrate Mum with a gift like no other and one she will hold dear for years to come.
