9 gorgeous gift ideas for Mother’s Day

If you’re in need of inspiration, after a present that grabs her attention more than a card and chocolates, hunting down a lasting gift is a win-win.

Whether it’s decorative, practical or whimsical, it’s a thoughtful gesture and feels valued.

Moreover, it means your mum has something new to elevate her space, spark a scheme, or simply show off a treasured piece.

Here’s what’s caught our eye as a winning way to show your appreciation on March 15…

1. Dolce Lady Vase, £65, Joe Browns

Bring home la dolce vita (the sweet life) with this Italian-inspired statement vase. Blending classic chic with playful accessories such as retro frames and a tutti-frutti hairband, present this vase with a mixed bouquet of roses and gerbera daisies to make a big style impact. Bella!

2. The White Company Primrose Hill Luxury Fragrance Collection, from £15 to £40, The White Company

An exciting new collection, what could be lovelier than scent surrounding the home with top notes of heady, floral jasmine; hints of citrusy, honeyed neroli, topped with aromatic pink pepper? Cited as ‘a burst of florals from the florist on the corner,’ we’re in.

3. Cool Mum ½ Pint Mug, £26, Emma Bridgewater

The novelty of a mug with a message never wanes, and a witty way to remind her why she’s the best.

4. Laura Ashley Durford 3 Light Bar Pendant Matt Antique Brass And White Ceramic, £150, Där Lighting

If she’s a fan of Pantone Colour of the Year 2026 – Cloud Dancer (a ‘lofty white’), and loves a pale aesthetic, these chic ceramic shades make a focal point. Tailor-made for a kitchen island or dining table, they cast a warm, ambient glow.

5. Rebel Of Love Heart-Shaped Wall Mirror, £85, Rockett St George

If your mum rocks, has a rebellious streak and she’s into self-expression, this funky mirror fuses maximalist décor with a rock ’n’ roll vibe. Perfectly placed for a dressing area, bedroom or gallery wall.

6. Aeolian 3 Wick Silver Scented Candle, £12, Rowen Homes

With its hammered, metallic base and three wicks, this vanilla-scented wax candle makes a stylish addition to a coffee table or ladder shelf and whispers quiet luxury.

7. Yara Green Bubble Gin Glasses, Set of Two, £22.50; Yara Peach Bubble Wine Glasses, Set of Two, £22.50, Oliver Bonas

8. Ferro Round Lined Wicker Baskets, Set of 3, £99, Rowen Homes

Storage solutions may not sound sexy, but you can’t beat a wicker basket when it comes to gifting. Not only can you fill this attractive trio with some hamper-style goodies on the big day, but they’re ideal for organising and decluttering. With removeable cream liner and rope handles for carrying,

9. Orchard Birds Quilted Throw, £210, Sophie Allport

Featuring garden songbirds and autumnal foliage, a warm sense of nostalgia surrounds this cosy, quilted throw.
