While the actual date of Mother’s Day changes every year I have it generally bookmarked in my mental calendar. It is not too hard as my Mom’s birthday is at the end of April and every year it comes soon after that. However my first year living in England I had a slight panic when people started talking about Mother’s Day in March – had I missed it? But no, it turns out in the United Kingdom (and much of the rest of the world) the holiday is celebrated much earlier than it is in the United States.
Thus while some of you will be waiting until May to pick out something wonderful for your mother’s here in England we need something by next weekend! That is right, Mother’s Day is Sunday, March 14th and in case it has snuck up on you I have put together a gift guide of some great options any mom is sure to love! My future mother-in-law loves flowers, gardening, and bath products so you will find a few of those included in my Mother’s Day Gift Ideas as Mark has put me in charge of her gift too! Take a look:

In case you need more suggestions for items that have quick shipping to the United Kingdom I would suggest ARRAN Sense of Scotland they have a huge range of products in different scents and you can custom make a gift box like the one below featuring the After the Rain Collection (Lime, Rose & Sandalwood) and the Glen Iorsa Collection (Lavender & Spearmint).

Do you have any great Mother’s Day Gift Ideas?

Kelly you saved me. I do live in the UK and have been a follower of yours for quite some time.
This box from Aaron that I can put together is certainly a winner. My mom is going to remember this for quite some time. Thanks for the suggestion.
Juliana says
That Aaran box would thrill anyone who is lucky enough to receive it.
Going to order right now.
Maureen says
I had no idea that the dates changed between countries. That’s nuts. The other holidays different in London?
Elizabeth says

Will check these out and try the link at the end.
Being one of your London followers this is especially interesting. Thanks Kelly.
