Mum’s the word, it’s Mother’s Day this weekend (in case you forgot). Before you rush headfirst into your nearest shopping centre, here’s our top picks of gifts to treat the special lady.
Donate to the Lady Musgrave Trust or attend their cocktail party
If you want to make a difference this Mother’s Day, why not donate to the Lady Musgrave Trust in honour of mum or take her out to a riverside soirée? The Lady Musgrave Trust’s annual cocktail party raises much needed funds to help the homeless women in Queensland get their lives, and the lives of their children, back on track. Expect great music, food and drinks overlooking Brisbane’s Story Bridge, and the chance to bid on some amazing items and experiences in our charity auction.
Get that bag (almost) everyone has from Zjoosh
Whether your mum’s about to embark on a European adventure or she simply needs a new accessory, Zjoosh is the place to go for a handbag. You’ve probably seen their cross body bags everywhere – and for good reason, as these versatile, vegan leather bags can hold a lot without ruining your ‘fit. If she’s already got one, just get a groovy new strap!
Pick up stunning flowers from Hermosa Hawthorne
The gift that keeps on giving, Hermosa Hawthorne has a bunch of florals on offer that aren’t just your ordinary bouquet. From weekly flower subscriptions to stunning bundles and even prime bottles of champagne, you’ll find it all – as long as you order by Friday, May 12!
Order Mum’s new favourite gin from Sunshine & Sons
Say “I love you” with a blush-hued bottle from Sunshine & Sons, hailing from the sunny coast and delivering the goods daily. Mum’s Rose Bouquet Gin intertwines flavours of pink rose petal, rose hip and rosella, available for a limited time only. Cheers to mums, gin, and all things pink!
Another round? Get the Pink on Pink Gin from Granddad Jack’s
We’re just be-gin-ing with alcohol gifts, so brace yourselves. This award-winning Queensland gin distillery has crafted a one-of-a-kind surprise that will leave mums across the country feeling extra special. Introducing Pink on Pink Gin, a limited edition masterpiece lovingly created by the talented head distiller and co-founder, Luke Ridden.
If that’s still not enough, grab a spiked gift pack from Seven Seasons
This Mother’s Day, treat your mum to something unique, premium and distinctly Australian. Sample your way through green ant gin, bush apple gin and native yam vodka. Bursting with flavour and encapsulating the unique essence of motherhood, these sips are the ultimate gift to show appreciation to all the extraordinary mums out there.
For a mixer, Mr Consistent has your back
If she’s not a regular mum, but a cool mum, snap up Mr Consistent’s cocktail mixer trio. And what goes best with an irresistible cocktail? Enjoy a little me-moment with a body oil, cleansing balm, serum and silicone blush included. The only other thing you need is to leave Mum alone while she indulges.
Buy absolutely anything from T2
I don’t know about you, but every mother I know is absolutely in love with everything from T2 – it’s the perfect go-to gift she can never have enough of. Add a touch of elegance to her everyday ritual with a blooming new teapot, steeply amazing teas and tea-inspired gifts. She’ll thank you (more than once).
Buy some mum-derful pyjamas from Peter Alexander
No two mums are alike, but we think you’ll find something she’ll love from Peter Alexander. Deck Mum out in the comfiest PJs around from head to toe, and since winter has certainly come early across Brisbane, she’s definitely going to need the full set.
There’s no excuse to forget this year!
