Whether it’s Mother’s Day, her birthday, Christmas, Easter,
or any random Tuesday, you should always be looking to get your mother or other important women in your life a really great gift to say "thanks" for all I do she does.
Chances are she
will work tirelessly to make sure there’s food on the table, the house is
clean, you’re ready for work/school, as well as be there for when you start
complaining about being tired and stressed.
Maybe it’s about time you showed
some appreciation and splashed some cash and now with internet shopping you
don’t even have to spend hours in those strangely perfumed shops on the high
street that actually sound like restaurants (you know the one I mean).
So without further ado, here are some great gifts across a
wide price range for the most special women in your life.
Friendship Light
These are delightful and not that expensive, either. At just
over a tenner these multi-coloured, hand-blown glass candle
holders make excellent presents. You can find them on Amazon or in candle
shops up and down the country. They are perfect for long summer nights in the
garden where your mum can put her feet up and sip on a nice gin and tonic.
Spa Days
It’s a classic gift idea, but one that will always be a safe
bet. Your mum or wife will really thank you when you gift her (and maybe a mum
friend of hers…) a day out to the spa where they can be pampered for as long as
possible.
She’ll forget about the lunches she needs to pack or the rugby boots
she needs to scrub as she soaks her feet and gets massaged by a chiselled fella
called Juan. Plus, spa days come in all shapes
and sizes and so it doesn’t mean they have to cost the Earth.
Diamond Ring
Now before you tell me to shut up, hear me out. Diamonds are
very expensive and maybe a little pointless in the grand scheme of life,
however what if I told you that there are companies like Heart in Diamond that will make you a diamond ring from hair that
your provide them. That’s right, you could trim your children’s hair and hand
it over to them where they will forge you a diamond ring that will last until
the sands of time run out. A beautiful and poetic idea, that is certain to get
you major brownie points!
House Work
No, I don’t mean buy her a fancy mop! If you can’t afford
much right now, offer to do an entire week of house work or cook all the meals
for her.
It’s a free alternative and it will show her how much you really care
and give her a well-deserved break. Although, having said this, you should
already be pulling your weight around the house when it comes to chores…
There you go; a small selection of ideas on what to get me your
wonderful mum the next time you’re feeling generous.
