Friday Favourites: Mothers Day Gifts


Mothers Day is early this year, due to it being Easter weekend when we would usually celebrate our with our Mum's in the UK. Here are some Ideas for great gifts to give to your Mum.

Why not pop to Boots and pick up a selection of your Mum's favorite bath products, posh bath salts, body lotion, lush soaps and arrange them all in a box or basket with some nice tissue paper. Wrap with cellophane and a pretty ribbon. the perfect gift for a relaxing mothers day.

Is your Mum a whiz in the Kitchen, why not make her a lovely Vintage style Apron. Head to your local fabric store and choose some pretty fabric and a pattern and get stitching.

A really cute gift that keeps on giving is a Coupon book H gave me one for Christmas and I loved it. 
Think of a few things that don't cost a thing like breakfast in bed and a few things that do like a meal at her favourite restaurant and print them out voucher style, she can cash them in when ever she wants.

How about a Magazine Subscription to her favourite monthly read?

I am spending Mothers day with Steve's Mum this year, as we were with My family last weekend because of Birthday fun. We are popping over for a low key lunch. What are you treating your Mums to this year? We would love to hear what you guys are doing for your Mums.

Love it: Pinterest Inspiration


I have been feeling a bit ill this week, so surfing the net for ideas and inspiration helps to keep my spirits up {that and my lovely husband feeding me with jam on toast} one of my best pick me up site is of course Pinterest. This week I have been pinning some lovely things that have inspired me with ideas to use in my shop.

Link for the week: Small Craft room Ideas from Craftaholics Anonymous

I am looking to set-up a craft area in my new-ish house.  Moving a few months ago it hasn't been a priority as settling in and getting things done has taken over, rather than making my craft space look pretty!  So I am going to take a few tips from the article on Craftaholics Anonymous

I will take a photo when I am done and share it with you, perhaps you could share your spaces with us back?

It's always good to see what other people are up to and have a chat with like minded people.  You can talk to us on the facebook page, via twitter or even in the comments.  Tell us what your up to or what you would like to see.  If anyone has an idea for a guest post too, it would be lovely to hear from you! email liveit.loveit.makeit@gmail.com
