Mother’s Day (14^th March) is just around the corner, so independent businesses at Brewery Square are providing shoppers with a range of individual gift ideas via their online stores.

Charlotte Spracklen, centre manager at Brewery Square commented: “We know many people won’t be able to see their mum for Mother’s Day this year, so it’s more important than ever before to show her how valued and loved she is. Our independent retailers are offering some fantastic gift ideas to spoil any mum – from quirky decorative items to perfect pamper treats.”

Every mum deserves to feel special, so this “Pretty Woman” Make Up Bag (£11.95) from Loco Loves is perfect for putting a smile on her face. It features a pearlized pink cover with a beautiful floral lining and box shape design, ideal for storing all her favourite make up items.

Treat your mum to a unique flower display this Mother’s Day with a Pastel Hat Box Arrangement (£35.00) from Stems Florist. The enticing display features phlox, freesia, carnations, and other delicate favourites nestled in a hat box for a special finish.

Inspire mum to have a much-needed pampering session with this restorative Wanderflower Foot Therapy Set (£25.00) from Belle Modelle. It includes a eucalyptus and fresh mint foot scrub and foot lotion, along with a wooden brush with added pumice stone – the perfect set for soft and supple feet.

You can never go wrong with an aromatic candle, so why not go all out this year by treating mum to a Luxury Large White Glass Sandalwood Leather & Jasmine Candle (£36.55) from Woods Furniture? Its musky, earth-like fragrance combined with a sweet scent is enough to bring a sense of serenity to any room.

Dog lovers will enjoy this Surprised Basset Ornament (£40.00) from Avenue Interiors, which comes in a range of quirky colours to inject a bit of fun into a room. Choose from gold, silver, shocking pink, atomic orange, and electric blue.

Encourage mum to embrace her creative side with this Cushion in a Bag Kit (£15.00) from Margo & Mya. This unique kit is the perfect project for anyone with a sewing machine who wants to add a bespoke, beautiful piece of décor to their home.
