5 Mother’s Day gift ideas for the interior designer lover
With more time than ever being spent at home, this year’s Mother’s Day is perfect for an interior-orientated gift. However, few mothers want to be reminded of house chores. So, unless you’ve had a specific request for a retro Smeg blender or sleek Dyson vacuum – we strongly recommend spoiling mum with something a little less… domestic.
Here are our top picks for a stylish home (chocolates, wine and flowers are always a welcome addition).
Statement Vase
If a bouquet of flowers is on the cards, consider adding a statement vase to the gift repertoire. The flowers won’t last, but an eye-catching modern piece – such as this stunning Fenton & Fenton vase – will continue to make a statement wherever it is placed.
Wall Art
Have you stared at a blank wall or outdated art piece above the couch every time you’ve come over for coffee at mum’s? A unique art or photo print – such as a divine piece by Antoinette Ferwerda – may just be the brilliant gift idea that’ll have you both admiring it for years to come.
Scented Candle
Nothing completes a relaxing night in like a scented candle. Whether it’s a long soak in the bath or some quiet time on the couch with a good book, a great quality candle (one that’s stylish, smells fabulous and is non-toxic) will do wonders for setting the mood. The Celia Loves candle range is crafted right here in Melbourne and ticks all the boxes.
Hand Soap
Okay, so this one may be crossing the line into domestic territory, but now more than ever we are reminded of the importance of regular and thorough hand washing. So, it’s only fitting that hand soap make it onto this list. There are some ridiculously stylish options out there – like the cult favourite from Aesop – that will help keep germs at bay while elevating any kitchen counter.
Bed Sheets
Sleep – probably the one thing mums never get enough of. Why not help create an environment that will (hopefully) provide the most sumptuous and relaxing of sleeps with some gorgeous French flax linen sheets? These sheets from Bed Threads are our go-to (and perfect for any season).
