Five unique gift ideas for mum

A book of heartfelt messages

Skip the text this year and put your Mother’s Day message in a book she’ll keep forever. Not only will it be an unexpected gift, but also a gift that will warm her heart on both the good days and the not-so-good days.

A Photobox photo book is *perfect* for adding loads of special snaps and sharing some love in the captions. We recommend the Little Moments Photo Book for this gift idea, since its compact size means mum can take it with her on days out or trips away for a little pick-me-up on the go. Available in 24, 36 and 48 pages, you’ll be able to fill it with poems and quotes as well as warm wishes from the people she loves most.

A mug full of goodies

Sweets, body lotions, vouchers for massages from you… take these classic Mother’s Day treats and pop them all in a mug, a unique gift that will be enjoyed by both tea and coffee drinkers alike.

Our Photo Mug is a great way to add a personal touch to this mini hamper for mum. Simply add her favourite snap, and we’ll print it on quality white ceramic and send it to your door whilst you’re gathering the goodies to put inside. Just imagine her surprise when she receives gifts she can enjoy on Mother’s Day as well as a gift she can enjoy every morning (she deserves to be spoiled like that).

A bookmark made for her

Many mums love a good novel to cosy up with. If that sounds like your mum too, a bookmark is a nice and simple gift idea that you know she’ll use every day.

Instead of picking up a standard bookmark, why not tailor one to your mum with a Photo Booth Strip? These prints are a unique way to turn a small gift into something *extra* special, and without breaking the bank too.

Each strip comes with space for four photos – maybe you’ll want to add the best pictures from the last family holiday, or a photo of each member of the family. Whatever you choose, we just know it’ll warm her heart whenever she goes to unwind.

A piece of personalised art

Home decor is a great way to give mum’s space a refresh. But we’re not talking about another ‘Live Laugh Love’ print, we’re talking about a piece that’s made just for your mum.

A Simple Canvas Print can help bring any photo you have in mind to life – maybe a picture of her favourite meal, a landscape shot of her favourite view, a cute old wedding photo, a hilarious snap of the family pet (the favourite child, really).

Be sure to add the hanging kit to your order so it’s ready to put on display when it arrives. For a cheeky surprise, you could bring mum into the room on Mother’s Day morning and ask if she notices anything different…

A puzzle to solve and frame

Mother’s Day is all about letting the motherly figure in your life relax, so cosy up at the table with some snacks and a jigsaw puzzle. She’ll be sure to appreciate the peaceful quality time, and you can also glue it together and frame it at the end for some unique wall art.

To give your puzzle an extra fun touch, we recommend the Photo Jigsaw Puzzle, ready to jumble up the pieces of her favourite family selfie, or maybe an image of her zodiac sign. For a cheeky challenge, upload a photo of a drawing done by the kids that she hasn’t seen before and let her discover their artistic style.
