8 Unique Mother’s Day Gift Ideas To Celebrate Mum

After everything your mum has done for you, she deserves one of our unique Mother’s Day gift ideas. These gifts will celebrate who she is and all that she has achieved.

There’s such a huge range of Mother’s Day gifts online that it can be difficult to know where to begin. And there’s no one ‘best’ gift for everyone; after all, no two mothers are the same!

So we’ve pulled together a list of unique Mother’s Day gifts personalised for all the different kinds of mums out there. Instead of giving her flowers and chocolates again, think carefully about who your mum really is, and what she enjoys. Use our suggestions to match her personality to the perfect gift to suit her.

Check out our unique Mother’s Day gifts. Do you recognise your mother in one of the below categories?

1. The Sporty Mum

Does Mum love nothing more than being active outdoors, golfing on Sundays or playing netball with the girls every week? If so, we’ve got some great unique Mother’s Day gift ideas for you.

• An acrylic print of sports imagery. Choose her favourite sport and create a piece of wall art that celebrates her unique love for the sport, whether that’s golf, tennis, swimming or bowls
• Find imagery of her playing sports, alone or with friends, and turn it into a photo mug or a photo cushion. Maybe it’s her favourite sports team, a yoga retreat with the girls, or a certificate of her sporting achievements. She will love the thought that has gone into her gift, and, best of all, it will be useful!

2. The Animal Lover

Do you find it hard to tear Mum away from nature documentaries, pet shops or the local zoo? For mums that love pets and animals in all shapes and sizes, we’ve got the perfect gift ideas.

• Create an epic photo collage of Mum’s favourite animals, and print it in acrylic to truly make it shine on her walls
• Create a single canvas print with an image of Mum’s most beloved pet
• Build a photo collage of Mum’s favourite pets. No matter how many pets she has, you can find a collage to fit them all in. You could even create a themed pet collage to honour her most loved pets

Got an active mum? An active mum loves hiking, vast landscapes and being out in nature.
