My Top 20 Mother’s Day Gifts
Mother’s Day is on Sunday May the 14th this year, so you only have a few more weeks to get organised.
If you have been wondering what on earth you are going to get your mum (or put on a wishlist for yourself), take a look at my top twenty gifts. I have hand-picked some amazing products to show you at a range of prices. They are either eco-friendly, recycled, natural, fair-trade, healthy or organic.
Let me know what you think!
♥ Prana Chai Gift Box
You have not really tasted chai tea until you have tried Prana’s chai tea. Trust me on this, I have tried a lot of chai tea! Prana Chai is hand made and blended in Melbourne from all natural ingredients and uses 100% Australian quality honey blended by hand with tea and whole spices. You make it on the stovetop by gently infusing it with your choice of milk and straining. Heaven!!
Their Mother’s Day gift box includes all you need to make a real chai – a cute little stainless steel stovetop pot, a strainer, a gorgeous Robert Gordon hug mug and a bag of Prana Chai tea. Plus a bonus gift until May 14th is a packet of Vanilla and Almond Porridge from The Wild (you can also make a chai porridge…. umm hello yes please).
Even better, the box is on sale with over$67 worth of goodies for just $42. Winning!
