Christmas Gift Guide | Mum's

Personally I think Mum's like to pretend they're hard to buy gifts for so that you won't feel bad or whatever. But over the years I've found my mum relatively easy to buy for. I think it becomes easier the more you shop with them and things like that, it helps you learn their taste. My step dad always stresses this time of year as my mum also has her birthday near to Christmas so he see's that as double the presents = double the stress.

I hope this gift guide gives you some ideas. 

❅ Pajamas - The first thing I've put on this guide is pajamas. Who doesn't like receiving pj's for Christmas? Christmas is about relaxing just as much as it is everything else so i think pj's are a perfect gift. Plus they're cheap, you can pick up a pair in primark for around £5-£7! Also there's some super cute ones out there so don't feel like you have to stick to the plain ones like in the picture.
❅  Jewlerry - jewlerry! I know my mum loves a bit of sparkle. I don't think you can go wrong with a pretty necklace or ring.  Newlook has some pretty bits or there's Monsoon for a more grown up feel.
❅ Pretty scarf - I know a scarf is a bit of a random gift but trust me. Scarfs can be such pretty accesories that you can use all year round. They look great and are super easy to wrap. I love the ones in H&M at the moment.
❅ a Lush gift set - is the perfect pampering present. I don't think theres been a year go by that i haven't ended up buying my mum something bath related. I especially like Lush for the cute wrapping and obviously the contents but any bath or body set would be loved im sure.
❅ Perfume set - Everyone likes smelly's, especially mums. There is some gorgeous scents out there at the moment, even Lush have brought out a perfume range (definatley worth a look). I've also found that gift sets are much better value. You get a lot more for your money and the receiver gets a lot more too!
❅ A framed picture - every parent likes a good ol' family picture to take pride of place. Why not print a picture of you and your mum, which you can  do for as cheap as 15p in Tesco, and frame it. If you can't find any pictures a soppy quote will be just as loved i'm sure.
❅ Chocolate - Last but not least, chocolate! I think everyone loves chocolate lets be honest. You can even get it personalized at places like thorntons. Can't go wrong!
