All mothers are different but The Handpicked Collection has something to make each one feel special this Mother's Day.
Mums who loved to be spoiled will adore breakfast in bed served with the sweet Heart Toast Rack (£23.95) followed by a luxurious bath with the gorgeously scented Abahna Bath Salts (£22.50). The all natural ingredients and White Grapefruit & May Chang scent will turn every bath into a deeply pleasurable and rewarding ritual. To make her daily routine more pleasurable and clock watching fun, adorn a Clip Clock (£26.95) with family photos and hand written messages and art work from the kids or brighten up tea time with crumpets and cookies served on a Photo Tray (£27.95) displaying some lovely family memories.
The new mum will adore the Boasting Envelope (£19.95) filled with photos of her new bundle of joy or why not make baby's bath time even more special with the Maman Bébé Soap (£13.95) – a beautiful boxed set of provençal soap one for mum and one for baby. Remind her just how gorgeous she is with a Yummy Mummy Mug (£7.95), guaranteed to bring a smile to her face.
The kitchen is the heart of the house so give the mother who loves to cook a few accessories to brighten up the simplest of chores. The retro-styled Mummy Teatowel (£9.95) will look great all year but make sure on the day she gets a night off from the drying up, whilst the funky Bengt Ek Design Triple Timer (£39.95) allows for a perfectly cooked roast as well as being enviably smart.
If your mum is the traditional kind who hasn't quite got to grips with email, indulge her love of letter writing by giving her a set of Contemporary Note Cards (£14.95) in stiff ivory card and if she loves childhood memories the Cherry Cake and Ginger Beer cookbook (£16.95) features recipes from classic children's books such as Milly Molly Mandy and Swallows & Amazons.
So with Mother's Day shortly upon us, forget spending hours scouring the shops or trawling online. Whether your mother loves deserves some pampering, loves gardening, is a proud grandparent or still caught up with the school-run, The Handpicked Collection has got it all wrapped up.
