Leather earrings from Studio Lowen, Cornwall

Studio Lowen is a busy studio in West Cornwall aiming to spark joy with its personalised leather accessories, leather earrings, homewares and gifts, all created with carefully sourced materials.

We’re obsessed with the range of handmade earrings made using leather offcuts. They’re incredibly lightweight and come in a range of colours and shapes. Got a mum who likes to make a statement? The Steren (meaning ‘star’ in Cornish) style comes in silver or gold and makes a beautiful, thoughtful gift for a style-conscious mum.

Perfumer’s Candle from Ffern, Somerset

You’ll have heard of Ffern’s FOMO-inducing seasonal releases of ultra-limited-edition perfumes (and if not, where have you been?), but did you know the Somerset company has announced its first foray into candles?

Three years in the making, the Ffern Perfumer’s Candle is a completely natural candle that changes with the seasons, housed in an innovative recycled steel vessel. The premier release, Spring 25, has been unveiled just in time for Mother’s Day.

The plant-based wax, hand-poured in the UK, is scented with 100 per cent natural oils, with key notes of violet leaf, lavender and Sicilian lemon echoing this season’s Ffern perfume but adapted for the home. The double-walled vessel is made from electric-forged recycled stainless steel, with enamel artwork by Cory Feder set into the lid.⁠

The Spring 25 Perfumer’s Candle has been made in strictly limited numbers and is currently available to Ffern ledger members and in Ffern’s Beak Street shop in Soho, London.

Perfumer’s Candle, £89

The Abbey Tea Bar

Afternoon tea and a handcial at Abbey Hotel Bath

Treat mum to an afternoon of indulgence and relaxation on Mother’s Day with afternoon tea and a handcial at the beautiful Abbey Hotel Bath.

The vibrant, boutique hotel is collaborating with wellness gurus TEMPLESPA for this Mother’s Day special. At The Abbey Tea Bar, guests will tuck into a sumptuous afternoon tea of freshly baked scones, delicate finger sandwiches and decadent sweet treats, plus a choice of fine teas (or glass of Champagne for those who want to add some sparkle to the proceedings).

Meanwhile, a TEMPLESPA therapist will be on hand to treat mums to the brand’s signature hand treatment: a handcial. The indulgent hand ritual leaves hardworking hands feeling utterly pampered and is the perfect way to say thank you to a special woman.

Book your spaces for this Mother’s Day event on March 30, 2025.

Afternoon tea and handcial, £35 per person

Fudge by post from Meg’s Cottage Fudge, Wiltshire

Gift mum a slice of nostalgia with this traditional Bradford on Avon-made fudge in flavours such as vanilla, salted, honey, ginger, coffee and coconut.

This ‘proper’ fudge is made using only natural ingredients, with no colourings. There’s no soft squidginess here; this is traditional fudge like grannie used to make. It’s solid and snappy before giving way with a crumble and melting into a creamy finish.

The award-winning fudge is made fresh each week by the small team and is a delicious gift for sweet-toothed mums. This letterbox-sized fudge and card gift set is ideal if you need to send your gift by post: choose two flavours and a pretty handwritten card for a personal touch.

A cheese hamper from Sharpham Dairy, Devon

Treat mum like a Queen Brie with this hamper from one of our favourite cheese producers in the South West.

The hamper aims to provide a much-deserved moment of pure indulgence. Handmade, hand-cut (and heart-shaped) Sharpham Brie is accompanied by local Sandridge Barton wine and artisan Sourdough Crackers.

Sharpham works hard to ensure the cheese is perfectly ripe before dispatch, meaning your cheese will be deliciously oozy on arrival. Preorder before March 25 for delivery in time for Mother’s Day.

Queen Brie Mother’s Day hamper, £28
