Handcrafted Beauty – The Sherpa Mayalu Bracelet – A Meaningful Mother’s Day Gift
I love finding something that’s not just gorgeous but also has real meaning and the Mayalu Diamond Roll-On Bracelet (£6) from Sherpa Adventure Gear is exactly that.
This handcrafted beaded bracelet is beautifully made in Nepal, with a stunning brown and white swirl design that catches the light perfectly. It’s elasticated, so there are no fiddly clasps, just roll it onto your wrist effortlessly.
The craftsmanship is incredible, and it feels solid yet lightweight, making it a really comfortable everyday piece. Plus, there are several colour variants available, so you can pick one that suits your mum’s style best.

Since they’re battery-operated (3 x AAA batteries each), there’s no need to worry about open flames or dripping wax, offering peace of mind along with aesthetic appeal.

Everyday Elegance – The Dune London Dorry Tote Bag
If you’re looking for a gift that’s both practical and seriously stylish, the Dorry Tote Bag from Dune London is such a brilliant option. I’ve been using the Neutral colour version recently and it had it’s first outing on a recent trip to Manchester.
I loved how versatile the colour is, it goes with any outfit choice and the way the bag is laid out, with a main section and space either side helps you pack as much as you can in the bag.
It’s one of those bags that just works with everything. The top handles make it perfect to carry as a handbag, but when I needed hands-free moments (lugging bags, sipping coffee and browsing shops), the long crossbody strap was a lifesaver.
The zip on the main internal section and popper fastenings on the outer sections made me feel everything was secure and the gold hardware detailing helps to give the bag a premium finish and feel.
The Dorry bag is made from recycled synthetic material and comes in a range of colours but can recommend the Neutral tone It measures 25cm in height, 35cm in width and 15cm in depth, making it roomy enough for everyday use without being bulky.
It fastens securely with a zip closure, and the interior is fully lined with recycled synthetic fabric, a thoughtful eco-friendly touch that doesn’t compromise on quality.
At £89, I honestly think it’s a lovely gift, smart enough for the office but casual enough for day-to-day. It’s one of those bags your mum will use all the time and it’s stylish without trying too hard. I’m completely obsessed!
Deliciously Indulgent Brownie Bites – A Sweet Mother’s Day Treat
Oh my gosh, the Brownie Bites from Cutter & Squidge are AMAZING and your mum will LOVE THEM! I had the absolute best time taste-testing these and let me tell you, they are next-level good!
This Mother’s Day Brownie Box is such a fab idea because you get a mix of indulgent flavours, all nut-free and handmade with the best ingredients. Each bite is ridiculously rich, soft and packed with flavour – seriously, I could have eaten the whole box in one sitting (but I showed some restraint… kind of).
Here’s what’s inside:
- Classic Chocolate – That perfectly gooey, rich brownie topped with a chocolate fudge ganache and crispy pearls.
- Millionaire Shortbread – Chocolate brownie meets caramel and digestive crumb. So good.
- White Chocolate – Creamy white chocolate ganache with dark choc chips. Dreamy.

For Music-Loving Mums – The Edifier W320TN Earbuds Are a Game-Changer!
If your mum loves her music, podcasts or just a bit of peace and quiet, then the Edifier W320TN wireless earbuds (£99.990) are such a brilliant gift idea this Mother’s Day.
I’ve been using them recently and they’re really comfortable, crystal clear and the noise cancellation is next level. I tend to use earbuds for calls so that I can multi-task around the house at the same time – they are just seriously convenient.
The adaptive noise cancellation automatically adjusts, meaning whether your mum’s chilling with a playlist, listening to an audiobook, or taking a call, the sound is always spot on.
The open-fit, lightweight design means no annoying pressure in your ears either – so you can wear them for hours without discomfort. If your mum loves unwinding with music, podcasts, or just taking a break from the noise, these quick wellness breaks might be just what she needs.
And the battery life? It’s brilliant! You get 5.5 hours of playtime on a single charge (or 27 hours total with the charging case), so there isn’t the constantly faffing about with charging cables. Plus, they earbuds are smart, if you take them out of your ears, the music automatically pauses and plays when popped back in. No missed moments!
What really blew me away was the sound quality. Thanks to Hi-Res Audio Wireless and LDAC codec support, the bass is deep, the vocals are crisp and everything just sounds so rich and immersive. Even calls are super clear, with AI-powered noise filtering that cuts out background distractions.
If your mum loves her music or just wants some distraction-free me-time, these earbuds are such a perfect gift. The Ivory colour is stylish, practical and seriously impressive, your mum will really appreciate these!
The Ultimate Cadbury Chocolate Box – A Sweet Treat for Mother’s Day
Oh my goodness, I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I was to receive the Cadbury Chocolate Box from the Sweet Hamper Company.
As a self-confessed chocoholic, this was like a dream come true, a whole box filled with my favourite Cadbury treats! It’s the perfect gift for any mum who deserves her own secret stash of chocolatey goodness.
When I opened the box, I was greeted by a delightful assortment of Cadbury classics. There were Dairy Milk bars, Crunchies, Wispas, Twirls and so much more. Each piece nestled perfectly, just waiting to be devoured. I couldn’t help but feel a childlike giddiness at the sight of all that chocolate.
But the surprises didn’t end there. As I lifted the first layer, I discovered another layer of Cadbury delights hidden beneath! It was like finding buried treasure, just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, there was even more chocolate to enjoy. This thoughtful layering made the unboxing experience even more special and indulgent.
For any mum who loves chocolate as much as I do, this hamper is an absolute must-have. It’s a generous, beautifully presented collection of Cadbury favourites that will satisfy any sweet tooth. Plus, it’s a lovely way to show appreciation and bring a big smile to her face this Mother’s Day.
Smart, Stylish & Practical – The STM Goods BagPack for Busy Mums on the Go
I love a practical, lightweight and clever design, and the STM Goods BagPack (currenly £51.89) absolutely delivers! If your mum is always on the go, whether she’s commuting, travelling or just needs an extra bag for day-to-day adventures, this is a brilliant gift idea.
First off, it arrives zipped up inside one of its own pockets, which is honestly so handy as it packs away neatly when not in use, making it super easy to store.
Thankfully, STM has thought of everything because there are helpful instructions on the box to guide you on how to fold it back down again (which is so much easier than trying to guess, like I did on my first attempt!).
But the standout feature? The inflatable laptop airbag section! If your mum carries a laptop (up to 16”), this ingenious built-in air cushion provides extra protection when inflated.
It’s really easy to use! Just inflate when needed and deflate again when it’s not, keeping things light and minimal. Once you’re at your destination, the airbag can be rolled up and stowed away, so simple, yet so smart!
It’s super lightweight, surprisingly spacious and doesn’t add bulk like traditional backpacks. The water-resistant material is a huge bonus, offering extra protection against unexpected rain showers. Plus, it’s available in two stylish colours (Coffee and Black), so you can choose a look that suits her best.
Comfort and convenience are also covered, with two shoulder straps for easy carrying and a sturdy top handle, perfect for grabbing on the go.
