10 original Mother’s Day gifts
It doesn’t have to be expensive to make a difference. Ten original ideas for Mother’s Day, from a line drawing of the family to a towel with “Mom” on it.
Your mum, your grandma or another woman you'd love to spoil: ten ideas that show you're thinking of her.
Embroidered gifts for mum
1. A line drawing of that one family photo
Every family has that photo that keeps coming out: the children as toddlers, or your favourite holiday. Louise turns it into a line drawing, Julie embroiders it in her favourite thread colour. For the mum who keeps the photo albums.
Line drawing on a sweater from €54.95. Is my photo suitable?
2. A heart each
Let everyone in the family draw their own heart. We embroider them side by side on a soft sweater: each heart stands for someone. Subtle, and yet it says it all.

3. Dog mum? Her pet on a hoodie
For the mum whose dog or cat is simply an extra child. Choose a portrait in colour or a minimalist line drawing.

4. 'Mama' or her portrait
The word MAMA, with a portrait in colour if you like. For the mum who likes it a little bigger.
Text from €49.95, colour photo from €74.95.
5. Her song as a Spotify code
We embroider the Spotify code of her favourite song. A quick scan with the Spotify app and the song plays. Handy if you can't be nearby on Mother's Day.

6. A towel with 'Mama'
Simple, but she thinks of you every time she uses it. Add 'mama of' and the child's name, or have 'Mama' embroidered in your handwriting, with a little heart.
See the towel with name.
7. Flowers that last
A bouquet wilts, her favourite flower on a sweater doesn't. We embroider it as a colour illustration. For the mum who always has fresh flowers on the table.

Other thoughtful ideas
8. A pampering moment just for her
Sometimes time for herself is the best gift. Combine a massage, a care set and a soft towel with her name into a small wellness package. That way she can see you put effort into it.
9. A photo book full of memories
Photos of lovely moments, with handwritten notes and little drawings in between. Work month by month, or by theme. For the mum who loves looking back.
10. A gift box you put together yourself
A box of little things that make her happy: a soft sweater, a scented candle, her favourite tea, a notebook. It's about the care you put into it.
Tip from our studio: For grandmas without a mobile phone, a monthly family newsletter on paper with photos and news is a lovely way to stay up to date. Combine it with something embroidered from the grandchildren.
