While taking your mum out for Mother’s Day is lovely, the reality can mean busy crowds and scrambling for a nice table. Why not treat mum to a cosy night in instead? We have all the essentials for you right here…
A little treat
Start the evening off with an indulgent treat, something that really makes mum feel special. Chocolates, patisserie, or cake all make fantastic options, or if your mum doesn’t happen to have a sweet tooth, luxury cheeses or charcuterie could be an excellent alternative. We recommend handmade biscuits from Ingenious Gifts, beautifully finished off in a pretty floral design and declaring ‘Mum you’re blooming lovely’, they are sure to be a hit.

Rest and relax
Mums do a lot! So what better way to let her take a break than a relaxing bath? Bath salts, bubble bath, or bath bombs are an excellent way to turn a simple bath into a luxurious experience, but if you’re looking for something a little more special, consider a bath light. A completely water safe orb such as this one from Dobbies Garden Centre can create a vibe unlike any other, switching between six different relaxing colours.

Perfect pampering
There are few better feelings than getting out of a relaxing bath and trying out some brand- new skincare products, so finding a luxurious moisturiser or serum for an extra special gift is a must. This antioxidant and CBD moisturiser by Mission C contains aloe vera, shea butter, and lavender, as well as its main component of high strength CBD. This powerful combination will sooth aches and leave mum eased and comfortable.

Bundle up
You can’t have a cosy night in without being wrapped up in some way, whether that’s in some super-soft pyjamas, a fuzzy blanket, or a toasty dressing down. The ivory heart print jacquard dressing gown from Roman makes an excellent Mother’s Day gift, with its adorable yet understated heart design and soft material. It also has a hood in case we’re in for a particularly cold March.

Bring on the bubbles
No special day is complete without a glass of fizz, and Mother’s Day is no exception! If your mum is tee-total, consider sparkling apple juice, or a non-alcoholic prosecco as an alternative. For mums who are fond of a tipple however, you can’t go wrong with a glass or two of champagne. We particularly recommend the Moët & Chandon Brut Imperial Champagne. Who could say no to a producer which used to be the sole champagne provider for the court of Louis XV, way back in the eighteenth century?
