Celebrating Mother’s Day: Heartfelt Ways to Show You Care – Mother’s Day is more than just a date on the calendar—it’s a moment to pause and celebrate the incredible women who shape our lives. Whether it’s your mum, grandma, or another nurturing figure, these are the people who’ve cheered us on, offered quiet wisdom, and held us close through life’s ups and downs.
While no gift can truly capture the depth of our gratitude, a thoughtful gesture can go a long way. That’s why we’ve handpicked some truly special ideas—things that feel personal, meaningful, and guaranteed to make her smile.
A Touch of Sparkle: Meaningful Jewellery
Jewellery has a way of speaking to the heart—a keepsake she can wear every day as a reminder of your love. One piece that truly caught our eye this year is the Black Cat Necklace from Jana Reinhardt’s Cats & Dogs Collection. Handmade to order, this delicate design is available in polished or oxidised solid sterling silver—a beautiful blend of elegance and meaning.
In many cultures, black cats are symbols of protection and good fortune. In Japan, they’re believed to bring new journeys and prosperity, while African and Native American traditions see them as guardians of the home. With this in mind, this little kitty isn’t just jewellery—it’s a talisman for luck and love.
Jana Reinhardt’s commitment to animal welfare shines through in every piece. Since launching in 2006, the brand has aimed to spark conversation about how we treat other species—all while creating stunning, wearable art.
Fashion That Feels Like a Hug
If your mum loves fashion, why not treat her to something stylish and practical? Driftwood Designs’ thermal snoods strike the perfect balance. Designed by Welsh artist Lizzie Spikes, each snood features her signature illustrations—think calming blues, vibrant florals, and playful patterns—all printed in the Peak District.
Made from recycled microfibre, these snoods are soft, stretchy, and endlessly versatile. Mum can wear hers as a scarf, headband, beanie, or even a wristband—ideal for breezy spring walks or cosy evenings at home.
We’re especially fond of the Doves design, with its soothing blue tones and elegant white birds. It’s a little reminder of peace and love—perfect for someone who’s always bringing calm to the chaos.
Green Gifts That Keep on Giving
Flowers are lovely, but houseplants? They’re the gift that grows with love. Beards & Daisies makes it easy to send a little greenery her way, with everything from air-purifying Peace Lilies to trendy fiddle-leaf figs and vibrant Pink Anthuriums.
For a pop of colour that lasts, consider a bunch of dried Craspedia (aka Billy Balls). These sunshine-yellow blooms brighten any corner and never wilt.
In addition they have a beautiful selection of fresh bouquets, available as hand-tied arrangements or convenient letterbox flowers. With a variety of colours and stem choices.

And for an extra touch of skincare indulgence, consider the Magnitone BabyBare Micro-Sonic Compact Cleansing Brush.

Home Comforts with Heart
For something truly unique, consider a gift with a story. The Stitch Sainte Luce cooperative in Madagascar creates beautiful, handmade home accessories from recycled cotton—each piece embroidered by women whose craftsmanship provides vital income for their families.
It’s more than a gift—it’s a connection to women around the world, reminding us of the power of community and care.
The Best Gift of All? Time and Love
Of course, the most meaningful gift doesn’t come wrapped. It’s a heartfelt conversation, a home-cooked meal, or a long walk together. Whether you’re near or far, take a moment to remind the mother figures in your life just how much they mean to you.
Happy Mother’s Day—may it be filled with love, laughter, and moments to cherish.
