Five Gift Ideas for Mother's Day

The spring sunshine is here in the UK, with longer days approaching giving us time for walks in nature and more time with those we love. In this blog, I will share five gift ideas for Mother's Day. I will provide links to purchase these on my website and explain why each gift will be perfect for your mum each gift is under £50. I also offer gift wrapping on all my products, adding a personal touch to your gift.

Gift 1 – Small Vase

This handmade decorative vase  measuring 14 cm high and 9 cm wide combines two different pottery processes, throwing on the pottery wheel and coil building, adding to the vase’s beauty. The peaceful colours of the clay evoke elements of the British landscape.

This decorative vase makes a unique gift for any mum who loves to display nature in their home, either fresh spring flowers from their garden or a collection of dried grasses from a walk in the countryside. 

Gift 2 –Set of Two Spoons

This set of two unique spoons is designed to complement your mum's kitchen and dining room with the beauty of imperfection and the joy of creation. Each spoon is handmade and carefully shaped, reflecting the peaceful charm of the British landscape that inspired their design.

Whether your mum loves serving sauces, gravies, or other accompaniments, these versatile spoons add a touch of handcrafted beauty to any meal. It's a thoughtful way to show your appreciation for her taste and style.

Gift 3 – Olive Bowl

This pottery olive bowl is hand-made with coloured clay in a Japandi-style. This small bowl is 6 cm high and 10 cm wide at the rim. Available in three unique colours dark grey-blue, pale blue-grey and sandy beige. 

This olive bowl is perfect for summer barbeque, to serve a collection of different olives or dips. Restful sandy shores inspire the textural and tactile surface of the naked clay bowl. The peaceful British landscape inspires the soothing colours.

Gift 4 – 500 ml Gravy Jug

This Japandi-style jug is hand-made with coloured clay. The interior is glazed, leaving the exterior naked. Each jug has a complimentary coloured clay handle.

Each jug is carefully packaged so it will arrive safely. Each package will have an artist information card, including care instructions. Each of my items is unique, so the object your mum will receive will have a slight variation, either in colour, size or shape, from the objects in the photograph, but it will carry the same high standard of craftsmanship and aesthetic.

Gift 5 – 300 ml Coffee Cup

This Japandi-style coffee mug is hand-made with clay coloured with oxides. The coloured clay handle is designed to allow all hand sizes to enjoy. Available in three unique colours, including blue, grey and beige. 

This handmade ceramic tea cup is perfect for your mum's tea break. The restful colours inspired by the British landscape and the refined, tactile surface will remind her of walks on sandy stone beaches, creating a peaceful moment of me-time on a busy day.
