Mother’s Day is fast approaching, and you don’t want to be rushing around at the last minute and picking any old present for your mom.
Mother’s Day is the day we get to show our moms how much we love and appreciate them, so we want to give our moms a thoughtful gift.
Linen is such a versatile gift that will last a lifetime, plus it looks expensive when it’s actually very reasonably priced.
Linen throw
A lovely linen throw makes a great gift for your mom. Made from 100% pure linen and handcrafted, it makes a thoughtful gift. Linen gets softer the more you wash it, so it feels delicate against your skin.
It’s perfect for placing over the bed. Use it over the couch and wrap up in it when relaxing. Linen is breathable so it keeps you warm without overheating you.
Run your mom a nice bath
Surprise your mom with a nice bubble bath. Use her favorite products. Throw some petals and bath bombs or bath oil in, so she’ll come out as smooth as a peach. Light candles for a cozy glow and play some relaxing music. Then leave her a soft and luxurious linen bath towel beside the bath so that she can dry herself off.
Apron
If your mom loves cooking, then something for her kitchen is a great gift. A linen apron is a thoughtful and practical present. Linen is absorbent and quick drying, making it perfect to use around the kitchen. It’s easy to clean by throwing the apron in the washing machine. You don’t even need to iron it. Giving your mom less ironing is a gift in itself.
Use linen to wrap your present
Use linen to wrap your Mother’s Day gift. It is an unusual and creative way of making your gift look special. There is a wide range of colors to choose from. You could even place a sprig of lavender through the middle, so your present not only looks great, but smells good too.
Plus, your mom can reuse it for all kinds of things, like a napkin. She could use it for gift wrapping herself.
Linen is environmentally friendly, so it’s a good way of creating less waste.
In Britain 227,000 miles of wrapping paper is wasted. @nibsetc reminded people to wrap presents responsibly, saying, “Use a gift to wrap a gift – table linen, napkin, kitchen towel, handkerchief, scarf.”
If all of your presents come out looking like they’ve just been attacked instead of delicately wrapped, then Martha Stewart has a great tutorial for an easy way of wrapping your present in linen.
With so many linen products, you can choose one to suit your mom. It not only looks elegant, but it also looks expensive, gaining you brownie points. And of course, the joy on your mom’s face will be worth spending the time picking a gift she’ll love.
