It’s less than two weeks until Mother’s Day! How has this sneaked up on me (and by me, I mean me, my husband and also my mum!)? I refused to give my husband any suggestions for gifts, however I decided to do a wishlist of goodies I’d love to receive.
I love looking at other people’s wish lists, I always try to get ideas for gifts from them, and if you’re the same why not take a look…
Mama Merch
Mama merch is the new “thing” and I love it.
A definite favourite of mine is mutha.hood. Not only is Gemma brilliant and hilarious on her insta-stories, the clothing and accessories she comes up with are just gorgeous. I got her Love Club pin for my birthday last year, and I’d be happy to receive ANY of her other items for Mother’s Day (my birthday, Christmas, because it’s snowy… you get the idea).

I’ve also recently come across This Mama Does who has just launched three brilliant t-shirts. I particularly love her “THIS IS NOT RELAXING” tee, which I’m sure all parents can relate to!
Beauty
I know nothing about beauty, so don’t get any ideas.
I did have a great eye cream which did make me feel/look more awake… but a certain tiny someone has hidden it and I have no idea where it’s gone! So a replacement would be great, like this night time balm from No7.
I don’t wear make up often, but my current mascara is on it’s way out and I’ve been recommended Maybelline Lash Sensational… a new mascara would be a nice treat!
Also, I have the driest hands at the moment which I think is the fault of the longest winter ever, so lots and lots of hand cream wouldn’t go amiss (the three tubes in my handbag just aren’t enough!).
Home
I’m not much of an interiors person, well actually that’s not quite true. There’s lots of things I like the look of, but either they wouldn’t go with our current style, or they wouldn’t go with my husband’s taste so I try to stick to simple items. Earlier this week I picked up a new plant pot in Wilko which seemed both inoffensive and pretty, and now I know it matches my kitchen there’s a larger version I have my eye on and it’s a bargain too!
The Dream
Us Mums (and I bet plenty of the Dads too) all have a dream gift they would like. To be honest, mine wouldn’t be any of the things on this wish list (though I’m not going to say no if one comes my way). It would be to have a long sleep, a leisurely morning, breakfast I can eat myself… and if I can’t have that? I’ll take a picture one of the children made any day!
Mums, what’s on your wish lists for this Mother’s Day? I’d love to know, leave me a comment below!
Great list. All I really want is a pub lunch with my boys and a good walk. Deffo not turning down any gifts though! #coolmumclub
Ooo a pub lunch, I haven’t been for one of those in a long time! That would be lovely!
A good pub lunch is one of my favourite things ever!
You are so right – I’d LOVE a motha.hood gift too! But I always stress that as long as I get a lay in and I don’t have to cook, happy days.
Whatever you recieve, have a fabulous day.
Thanks for sharing with #coolmumclub
Ooo yes, not cooking would be great too! ?
Lovely list… often, it’s the seemingly little things that make a big impact!!! Happy Mother’s day:)

A cuddle from the kids or a handmade card can go a long way can’t they!
Not to have to change any nappies (I’ve got two in them) #coolmumclub
That would be a dream! Any chance of it happening?
