Still no gift? It doesn’t have to be a Mother’s Day Mayday!

There's still time...

Sophie White

Are you hitting the blind panic stage of unprepared yet? Thankfully we’ve still got time to cobble together a nice surprise for the mother before Sunday. Here’s a few suggestions.

Mother’s love

This adorable double heart necklace will be a heart-felt reminder of your love for her.

Necklace, €95, Willow and Clo at Brown Thomas

 

Mother’s milk  

Creme de la Mer is our go to luxury skincare products.

Luxury skincare gift, €260 at Brown Thomas

 

Mother’s hip

Let her rest up in style with cute throw pillows.

Pillow, €4 at Tiger

 

Mother’s Ruin

Champagne is slightly more upmarket than the traditional gin and she may even share it with you.

Champers, from €29.49 at Tesco

 

And when all else fails get the old bag a bag

Buying for the mother is difficult. It’s a rare gift that isn’t received without an accompanying demand for the gift receipt. A bag is a pretty safe option and you can always tuck the gift receipt into the inside pocket.
