MOTHER’S DAY GIFTS THAT YOUR MUM WILL LOVE AT 17 & CENTRAL
March means Mother’s Day and Mother’s Day means gifts. Make your mum, or the mother figure in your life, feel special with a thoughtful present that shows her just how much you appreciate her. Not sure what to buy? We’ve got some great gift ideas, all of which you can get from retailers at 17 & Central.
Home is where the heart is
Does your mum love to surround herself with nice things? How about treating her to an indulgent mug, some pretty plates or even a showstopper cake stand – perfect for hosting afternoon tea. Our new Home Style has some eye-catching pieces that are just right for entertaining or head to TK Maxx where you’ll find home accessories galore. If she likes to keep her home looking fresh with sweet seasonal touches, they’ve got gorgeous vases, photo frames, mirrors and loads of quirky ornaments, which are perfect for a spring reboot.
Baked with love
Celebrate your lovely mum with handmade cake. Lola’s Cupcakes has just released a new batch of seasonal cupcakes, which sound delicious and look almost too good to eat! Fill a box with delicately flavoured cupcakes, adorned with edible flowers. Choose from Lemon & Poppyseed, Vanilla Blossom or Blueberry & Earl Grey – or simply mix and match.
If you’re getting the family together for a Mother’s Day celebration and need a dessert, they do large cakes too – pop into the centre to order yours.
And if she’s not a fan of cupcakes, how about a special Mother’s Day Brownie Box? We’re talking rich, fudgy brownies, topped with silky white chocolate ganache, dried flowers and a special ‘mum’ plaque, and hand finished with tiny pearls for added elegance.
Make it personal
Make your mum feel loved with a present that’s been chosen just for her (and that no one else will use, because they know it’s hers). Card Factory has a huge Mother’s Day range, which includes lots of specially selected items you won’t find anywhere else and many that are adorned with the word ‘mum’. Our personal favourites include the Wonderful Mum Tea Rose & Velvet Body Lotion and Shower Gel Set, Forever Flower Rose Ornament, Busy Being Wonderful Tote Bag (which is only £2.99) and Beautiful Mum Eye Mask, Essential Oil & Candle Set, but if these don’t take your fancy, there are loads of other gifts to choose from, so pick something that fits your budget and feels right for your mum.
Charm candy
Make Mother’s Day meaningful with charms from Pandora that say it all. If she’s already got a charm bracelet then add a new charm that will make her think of you every time she wears it. We couldn’t resist the Heart and Mum Dangle charm, which is outlined with pink stones, the Mum Daisy Heart charm, which is engraved with the words ‘Mum, love you always’ and the Splittable Mother & Daughter Dangle charm. There are so many to choose from and engraving is always a lovely added extra.
Treat time
Gift mum some precious me time with an indulgent treatment at one of our three clinics – Ria London, Cleo Clinic and EverySkin. Maybe she’d like a manicure (or a pedicure now we’re heading into warmer weather), massage, lash lift or something more specialised like microneedling or laser treatment. Not sure which treatment’s right for your mum? Pop in for a gift voucher then she can choose. Also see below for details of our Mother’s Day competition, which includes a fabulous prize from Ria London.
Make a meal of it
Perhaps the best gift of all this Mother’s Day is to treat your mum, or the special female in your life, to a break from the cooking (and the dreaded clearing up afterwards). Bring her to CRATE and let her choose from our six, sensational street food vendors. Not only are there vegan and halal options, but the beauty of our food hall set-up is that you can both enjoy your favourite cuisine (even if you like different foods) without having to compromise. Or if you’re looking for something lighter, how about coffee and a bagel, or a cake from the brilliant Perky Blenders?
Finishing touches
Most mums love cards so don’t forget the all-important finishing touches. Asda, Lidl and Card Factory all have plenty of Mother’s Day cards so select one to suit your mum, whether that’s heartfelt or humorous.
When you’ve taken time to choose the perfect present, don’t forget to present it nicely. Card Factory, Asda and Waterstones have a stunning selection of wrapping paper, ribbon and gift bags.
Go the extra mile this year and make mum feel extra special with a Mother’s Day Balloon. Card Factory has some beautiful balloons that they’ll inflate while you wait – just imagine the smile on her face when you turn up holding one!!
