It’s almost that time of year again, Mother’s Day, one of my favourite days as it’s all about us mums! I also love it as it’s a great opportunity to say thank you to my mum too.

My favourite place for gift inspiration has to be Etsy. Not only do they have a variety of unique and wonderful presents, they are also becoming the first major online shopping destination to offset 100% of carbon emissions generated by shipping.

Every time you receive a package from Etsy, they invest in emission reduction projects to help keep the Earth beautiful, clean and green. This ultimately means you can shop from Etsy guilt free, knowing that wherever your package has come from, Etsy are balancing out the carbon emissions. As I’m making a concerted effort to be more environmentally friendly a gift from Etsy would be the ideal gift for Mothers Day for me and I am sure many will agree.

To help you with some ideas I have put together the ultimate Etsy Mother’s Day Gift Guide:

Red Flower art print from £20 (free delivery)

For any mum who loves bright vibrant artwork, this print will add colour to your home. There’s a choice of three prints from the artist’s floral drawings. What’s more, each print is signed and dated, making this a real collectors piece.

The Little Book of Mum’s recipes £8.99 (free delivery)

This is such a perfect personalised gift and is ideal for any mum who loves to cook. Made out of moleskin, there are lots of different options to choose from including sizes A5 or A6 and also the colour and font.

Vintage Locket from £35 (free delivery)

This beautiful locket has an ornate clasp that opens out to reveal space for four different pictures, instead of the usual two. Perfect to include all the family. The locket is solid brass and the fine chain and clasps are high quality gold plated brass. There is a choice of four different lengths and there’s even the option to have it personalised inside with your own photographs transferred onto the metal of the pendant itself, for a really soft and unique vintage effect.

3 Stained Glass mini heart sun catchers £15 (free delivery)

These little sun catchers are a perfect gift for the garden or to hang in a bright window to let in some extra sunshine. Herat shaped to show how much you love your mum and hand made using the copper foil technique. A lovely little gift for Mothers Day and at just £15, a bargain too!

Brass triangle earrings £16.50 (free delivery)

These beautiful earrings would make any mum’s day. Very stylish and inspired by Kailash, a beautiful snow capped peak in the Himalayas and a sacred mountain for Hindus, Buddhists and Jains. According to Hindus, its summit is the home of Lord Shiva and considered the centre of the world. So if your mum is the centre of your world and she also likes stylish jewellery, this is the perfect gift!

This super cute Window Box has a trio of bright sunshine Sunflowers. The front of the window box can be engraved with a choice of lovely messages, including Happy Mothers Day, making it the perfect gift.

Farmhouse style bath caddy with bath gift set £30 (free delivery)

This is my idea of heaven and what mum wouldn’t like a gift that fundamentally allows her some well deserved ‘me’ time. This bath caddy is made out of beautiful solid wood and is engraved. There’s space for your drink, a tablet, phone or kindle and there’s tea light recesses sunk into the wood and two matching solid wood corner tea light holders. What’s more it comes with a pampering gift set, making this the ultimate gift for relaxation. The gift set includes a bath bomb, 6 scented tea lights, soap, body mop, pumice stone, exfoliating glove, body and face scrub mitts and a face flannel.

Kimono Dressing Gown £59.95 (plus £2.95 delivery)

This 100% cotton kimono-style hand-printed dressing gown, is a luxurious gift to spoil your mum. A beautiful design, it’s easy to see why the dressing gown gets so many amazing reviews on Etsy.
