How to Choose the Perfect Personal Mother’s Day Gift – A Curated Guide
Wondering how to choose the perfect personal Mother’s Day gift that truly shows you care? Explore our curated gift guide — a selection of meaningful gift ideas designed to honour every type of mum while caring for the planet and the people behind each piece.
Why personal gifts that show you carematter more than ever?
In today’s fast-paced world, where time feels like a luxury and distractions are everywhere, we often forget to slow down and really show that we care. Mother’s Day is a chance to pause and honour the women who care so much for others – but it has also become a day of over-consumption and mass-produced, impersonal gifts. From synthetic materials to excessive packaging, many traditional options come at the expense of the planet and the people behind the products.
But celebrating your mum shouldn’t come at the expense of your values. The most meaningful gifts are those that reflect who she is – and show you’ve taken the time to choose with intention. Whether your mum is nurturing, creative, infinitely flexible or full of warmth, there’s a thoughtful and personal gift that fits her perfectly.
This Mother’s Day, let’s move away from generic gifts and towards mindful giving – gifts that honour her, care for the planet and support the people who make them. Here’s your curated gift guide to discover how to choose the perfect personal Mother’s day gift for every kind of mum.
For the flexible mum – Big Lazy Spiral candles!
For the mum who always knows how to twist and turn through life with grace—celebrate her flexibility with our Big Lazy Spiral Candles. Their elegant 40cm twisted shape adds joy and sophistication to any table or space. Just like her, they bring beauty and energy wherever they go. The best part? These candles are made from plant-based wax, releasing fewer harmful chemicals than paraffin alternatives. A gift that looks good, feels good, and does good—for her and the planet.
For the multi-tasking wonder – the Multipurpose cloth
Your mum can do it all—so give her a gift that can, too. The Multipurpose Cloth is as versatile as she is. Whether she’s wrapping up in it on the sofa, laying it out for a picnic, or dressing the table for dinner, this cloth adapts to every moment. It’s made from recycled textile waste from the garment industry in Bangladesh and handwoven by women under fair conditions. A beautiful, practical gift that respects both people and the planet—just like she does.
For the mum with many layers - Pillar Layered Tall Candle
She’s full of depth, colour, and character—and refuses to be put in a box. The Pillar Layered Tall Candle Limestone is perfect for the mum with many sides to her story. With its softly stacked shape and soothing tones, this candle symbolises all the parts that make her whole. It’s beautiful on the outside, and meaningful at its core: for every candle sold, a tree is planted for farmers in Africa through Trees for the Future. A layered gift, for a layered woman
For the Culinary Queen – The Recycled Apron
If your mum creates magic in the kitchen, gift her an apron that’s just as thoughtful as her cooking. The Recycled Apron is made from leftover textiles from the garment industry in Bangladesh—proof that waste can be transformed into something wonderful. Durable, practical, and full of purpose, this apron is a tribute to every lovingly prepared meal and every moment shared around the table.
For the beautiful mums – Organic Candles
Celebrate her warmth, elegance, and natural beauty with the soft curves of our Organic Candles in Peach and Beige. These sculptural candles don’t just light up a room—they elevate it. Hand-poured by women in a WFTO fair trade certified workshop, they symbolise feminine strength, community, and care. Women supporting women—what better way to honour your beautiful mum?
For the best listener - Glassware from upcycled wine bottles
For the mum you can talk to for hours—over tea, wine, or just a good story. Our Upcycled Glassware, made from reclaimed wine bottles from the tourism industry in Zanzibar, is the perfect gift to celebrate those deep conversations and moments that matter. Durable, stylish, and sustainable, these glasses turn shared drinks into shared memories—with purpose.
For the hippie mum – Gradient Limestone Candles
For the dreamers, the boho souls, the spiritual guides, the mums who radiate light and colour. The retro look of the Gradient Limestone Candles is perfect for relaxing rituals, cosy corners, or re-decorating together on a sunny spring day. Made from plant-based wax, they bring beauty, good energy, and a touch of that hippie spirit to any home. A little candle, a big message: the world is better with her light in it.
