There’s no better time to show your love and appreciation for your Mother than Mother’s Day. Falling on the second Sunday of May each year, it is the day to shower your mother with gifts, quality time, hugs, or all of the above!
Flowers, or flower based gifts are a surefire present she will absolutely love. Of course, they are very diverse, which is what makes getting the perfect bouquet or gift package absolutely crucial. Not to fear, we’ve got you covered! Here is our guide to choosing the perfect Mother’s Day Gift.
Bouquets are of course a classic way to gift flowers to a loved one. Choosing the best bouquet for a Mother's Day gift specifically involves considering both the personal preferences of your mother and the symbolism of different flowers.
Traditional Mother's Day flowers include roses, which symbolise love and gratitude, and carnations, with pink carnations in particular representing a mother's undying love. Lilies can be included for their elegance and beauty, symbolising purity and admiration. If your mother enjoys fragrance, consider adding some fragrant blooms like lilacs or freesias.
In terms of colour scheme, softer colours like pinks and whites often express appreciation and affection like the Splendour Bouquet, while brighter hues like the Elegant Lady Bouquet can signify joy and celebration. Don’t forget to add on to your bouquet, whether it’s a scented candle, or box of chocolates for a more rounded gift.
If flowers aren’t your mother’s usual fancy, then hampers are a great alternative! Hampers are varied in their products, and this diversity ultimately will allow you to have a pick of more personalised mother's day gifts.
If your mother needs some rest and rejuvenation then hampers such as Relax and Unwind are ideal, with candles and hand creams included inside. Or, if she has a sweet tooth then the confectionary touch of the Little Cheeky hamper will satiate her taste buds! Many of these hampers include a small spray of preserved or artificial flowers, so she can have a lasting reminder of your thoughtful gift.
Flowers don’t have to be the only touch of nature to give your mother. House plants make excellent Mother's Day gift ideas due to their enduring nature, symbolising the lasting appreciation and love for a mother.
They enhance the home environment by complimenting any aesthetic and can boost mood and improve air quality. Many house plants are also low-maintenance, making them a suitable gift even for those who may not have a green thumb. Additionally, nurturing a plant can be a rewarding and relaxing activity, offering a sense of accomplishment as it flourishes. Plants such as the Peace Lily and Monstera are popular choices, and she will more than likely appreciate the beauty they bring.
Is your mother one for sentimentality? Then why not frame a photo of you two together, with a floral touch. Choose a deep set frame or shadow box to frame your photo in. Then using glue and scissors, place preserved flower sprigs across the border of the photo or blank space available. This will add extra beauty and texture to the frame, while also providing a nostalgic gift for her to cherish for a long time to come.
Wow your mother this Mother’s Day with a gift from the heart she will truly cherish. You can’t go wrong with flowers, and these floral orientated gift ideas are guaranteed to resonate with your mother.
