Great Mother’s Day gift ideas for glorious grandmothers

Mother's Day is a sentimental celebration of the most influential mother figures we just couldn't live without. After all, where would we be without those who birth or raise us, and who help to construct our path and hold our hands for every step? As well as marvellous mums and superb step-mums, it is equally important to applaud our grandmothers, as their love and support through every stage of their grandchild's life is a shining light for so many. Whether she's Granny, Grandma, Nanny, Nana, Nan, or any other adorable nickname, she deserves to be spoilt rotten on a special day like Mother's Day. Whatever her style, hobbies, or guilty pleasures, we've rounded up some failsafe Mother's Day gift ideas for Grandma to treasure.

If she's a lover of treasurable trinkets, a great jewellery gift will never go amiss, and the perfect piece doesn't have to be extravagant to be cherished. A pretty pair of subtle studs make an easy token gift she'll love that will also please your pocket. Simple stud earrings come in many different shapes and sizes so you can select a pair to best suit Nan's style, and most studs are understated enough to easily slip into her everyday jewellery collection. If she's a fan of all things floral, our Birth Flower Pendant Necklace is ideal for grandmothers who love personal pieces and floral flourishes. The necklace comes in either silver or gold so you can ensure the chosen chain matches her other special jewellery pieces. Both big and small grandchildren can gift Nanny this necklace, with the ability to choose the pendant shape based on the birth flower for the month she was born.

Looking for a pretty piece that's even more personal? Our beautiful Meaningful Word Bangle features Nana's name along with a sweet, sentimental message to remind her how wonderful she is.

Most grandmothers love to receive gifts that a great deal of thought has gone into. Continuing down the sentimental route, a personal present is bound to be a big hit with a nana who is super proud of her brood of grandchildren. A candle is a failsafe option for bringing a little touch of joy to her space and can be made even more unique by adding her name or a special message to the label. Our Personalised Vintage Pink Nana Scented Soy Candle is 100% natural and vegan and features only the highest quality fragrance oils to fill Grandma's home with the most beautiful floral scents. Once she has finished burning her candle, the personalised glass can be easily cleaned out and reused as a sweet decoration. Smaller sentimental pieces are guaranteed to be equally as treasured, and an adorable engraved keyring is the perfect everyday accessory for a special nan to carry around with her, reminding her just how cherished she is.

If your grandmother loves to add a floral flourish to her home, you can't go wrong with gifting fancy flowers! While fresh florals are a pretty present Nan will no doubt be pleased with, dried flowers will last much longer, meaning she can admire her arrangement day after day. They're a more sustainable option too, so if she's passionate about giving the planet a helping hand, she'll appreciate that aspect being considered. Bright bouquets bursting with spring florals will have Nanny rushing to grab a stunning vase to display the bunch proudly on a shelf or mantel. If you feel she needs a brand-new vase to go with her beautiful blooms, our Small Ceramic Nana Bud Vase is great for adding even more sentiment to her space and allows her to exhibit her pretty posy with pride.

Some grandmothers are forever on the go and love to keep busy with their favourite tasks. Whether it's baking, knitting, crafting, or gardening, Nan will be thrilled to be gifted a thoughtful piece she can use time and time again. As Mother's Day is nestled in the heart of spring, it's the ideal time to gift her a great gardening accessory as she'll be getting ready to begin pottering! Wonderful watering cans and pretty, personalised plant markers will come in super handy when she's preparing her plants for more sunshine. If you have a grandma who's mad about cooking a feast, she'll love a quirky kitchen accessory like our Personalised Embroidered Birth Vegetable Grey Apron. Add her name and up to four embroidered birth vegetable emblems to represent yourself and other important family members to gift her a special piece she can wear each time she whips up her famous Sunday roast.

No two grandmothers are ever alike, so it's important to tailor your gift to the recipient and ensure she is overcome with pride for her grandchild the moment she tears off the paper! Special gifts don't have to be big to make a statement, and it's easier than you'd think to say it all with something small. Food and drink gifts are great for filling a fancy DIY hamper, or for surprising her when she was adamant she didn't want anything. After all, it's hard for a tipple-loving granny to resist a tasty bottle of gin or prosecco! For the more practical grandma who fills their days with endless useful objects to make life a little easier, a small but sweet home accessory is a foolproof option. If she's a fan of flicking through her favourite fiction, she'll be thrilled with an adorable reading accessory like our Personalised Birthstone Charm Ribbon Bookmark. You can choose her birthstone to make it unique to her, and the stunning velvet ribbon comes in a delightful colour to match, making it the ideal piece for brightening up her reading time!

If you're struggling to choose between several super gifts for your super special grandmother, a heavenly hamper is a guaranteed winner. A Build Your Own Hamper is a fantastic way to include everything you know she loves, from tasty treats to charming treasures.

However you choose to show gratitude to your grandmother, it's essential that she's aware of just how appreciated she is. She's often the backbone of the family, the maker of memories, and the supporter of your achievements, and on Mother's Day especially, she really does deserve to be in the centre of the spotlight.
