Shop these unique Mother’s Day gift ideas
Unless she’s vocal about what she wants, finding the perfect gift can feel overwhelming. But fear not – we’ve compiled a collection of unique and thoughtful gift ideas to make this Mother’s Day memorable.
Whether she’s a fan of movies, a supporter of worthy causes or in need of some pampering or a wardrobe refresh, our guide has something for everyone.
• Unique gifts: Transform her Mother’s Day into an unforgettable home cinema experience with a curated movie day, stock her freezer with ready-made gourmet lunches or build a simple grazing table for an at-home brunch. Personalised photo gifts from Big W and a quirky Cotton On card can add that special touch.
• Gifts doing good: For those who rally around social and environmental causes, consider a gift voucher from a conscious retailer that shares her values. The best part is that this is not just a gift – it’s a nod to her passions and principles.
• Pamper packs: Surprise her with a luxurious facial or a relaxing massage from Mandala Health Wellness or Massage Legendary, gifting her the peace and pampering she deserves.
• Winter fashion: Help her step into the season in style with a voucher for Sportsgirl, Dotti or Chique. A chic coat or a pair of stylish boots might just be the missing piece to her perfect winter wardrobe.
On the day: Create a day around what truly excites her
Mother’s Day should be about what she loves, whether that’s hanging out with the family or enjoying quiet time alone. Balancing her favourite things and people with an element of surprise is one way to make the day remarkable.
Things to do for Mother’s Day at home
Kick off the day with a lavish brunch in bed featuring some crowd favourites or her go-to treats: think berries, yogurt, toast and eggs paired with a freshly brewed cup of coffee. Then, arrange a relaxation station with cosy slippers, a selection of magazines, her favourite tea and some chocolate delights. Or, spend the afternoon watching a beloved family movie or flipping through old photo albums, reliving cherished moments together.
Things to do for Mother’s Day around Tweed City
If the outdoors calls to her, take a peaceful walk in your local park or walk barefoot in the waterline at a nearby beach, basking in the beauty of nature together. Then, visit Tweed City for a quick coffee break at Zarraffa's, a leisurely lunch Three Beans at or a family dinner at Eat Sushi or Grill'd. For an extra touch of luxury, book her in for a Xtremescreen movie experience at HOYTS or an afternoon of indulgence at Glo Beauty Studio.
