Personalised Mother's Day Gifts

When is Mother's Day in the UK?

Mothering Sunday is the fourth Sunday of Lent, so the date moves each year. It usually falls in March and occasionally early April. Allow 1–3 working days for making plus 2–3 working days for Royal Mail, and order a week or so ahead to be comfortable.

Keepsakes for Mum

A photo necklace lets her carry her family with her, in a heart or circle pendant that arrives in a gift pouch. To display at home, the crystal photo block makes a photo appear to float inside polished crystal, and the small size comes in a presentation box. A photo slate with hand-chipped edges and its own stand gives an older family photo a timeless feel.

Something she will use every day

• A 40oz tumbler with her name on soft florals, leopard print or pastel checks
• A photo mug with a pink, purple or other coloured handle
• A tote bag printed with the grandchildren's names
• A glass chopping board reading "Mum's Kitchen"

Gifts for new mums, nans and step-mums

Mother's Day is for every kind of mum. A first Mother's Day is lovely marked with a photo of the baby on a keyring or necklace. For nan, a set of four photo coasters can show four different grandchildren. See more in gifts for grandparents.

Wording ideas for Mum

• "Mum, our favourite person" with the children's names
• "Nanna's Tea" or "Grandma's Cuppa" on a mug
• Her name with a date that matters, such as the year she became a mum

Photo tips

Choose a sharp photo where faces fill most of the frame. Small pendants and keyrings work best with one or two people rather than a big group.
