Mother’s Day is one of my favourite celebrations throughout the year. My mum is my rock. She is a best friend as well as a mother and I admire her so much for all she has gone through and all she continues to go through, always with a smile on her face and always putting her family first.
I have put together this gift guide with lots of lovely products included, to give you inspiration this Mother’s Day. If you need more Mother’s Day ideas, check out the gift guide at Bosca.com.
All products featured have kindly been gifted to myself for inclusion in the guide. Words and images are my own.
Living DNA
I have always been really interested in finding out more about family and genes and the 3-in-1 DNA Test kit from Living DNA provides you with a range of information about yourself, your family and your ancestors. The kit is really simple to use, with a cheek swab and Freepost return envelope provided. Results take around 10-12 weeks after your kit is returned. This gift is perfect for anybody interested in finding out more about their family.

Specialising in gifts for all occasions, The Gift Experience have lots of inspiration for Mother’s Day presents, but this Day I Became a Mum original newspaper caught my eye. It is such a lovely keepsake, and one that I am looking forward to sharing with my mum. It comes in a beautiful gift box, all wrapped up and presented with a certificate of authenticity, which can be personalised.
Rainbow Knit
I fell in love with this bright, colourful cashmere rainbow jumper from Kit and Kaboodal ever since I received it and I have already had so many compliments from others since sharing photos of me wearing it on Instagram. It is so comfy and cosy, brightens up a simple pair of jeans, and looks lovely.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil’s benefits have been advertised for quite a while now but I hadn’t tried it out before. Since receiving the organic coconut oil from Coconut Merchant, I have become a total convert. The packaging is totally chic, and this wonder solid oil has countless uses making it a really versatile and useful gift.
