Gifts for mum from her daughter that she will keep
The best gifts for mum are the ones that say you noticed. Here are ideas that say it, from a personalised bookplate print to a scene every daughter of Little Women will know.
A library plate with her name on it
Mum's Library, Ex Libris is made for the mum with a shelf of books. It can be personalised with her name and the year, and it looks like a bookplate from a family library. It belongs in the room where she reads.
For the Little Women mum
Marmee Comes Home is the moment the March girls have been waiting for, and it is one of the best-loved scenes in Louisa May Alcott's novel. It is for the mum who read it to you.
How much to spend
- Under £10: a £7.99 download of a print she will love, with a card.
- Around £20: an unframed A4 print.
- £45 and over: a framed print, ready to hang.
Write the card
The card matters more than the gift. Say one specific thing: a book she read to you, a moment you remember. That is what she will keep.
