Pampering and Personal Touches for Every Mum
While you can’t go wrong with a gorgeous flower bouquet from Rae Blossom, Alison McCarrick explained that her store also carries a variety of additional gifts sure to put a smile on your loved one’s face.
“We have body scrubs and soaks, jewellery, handbags and clothing,” she said. “But if you’re after something more unique, our workshop gift cards are a great option and our ready-to-go hampers are also popular for a quick gift on the run.”
What mum wouldn’t want a little ‘me time’ for Mother’s Day? The Candle Pitt offers a collection of locally hand-crafted pieces designed to help Mum escape and unwind.
“My most popular items are hand-poured candles and wax melts,” said owner Bec Martin.
“I also make soaps, reed diffusers, room sprays, shower steamers, and most recently, bath teas.”
With all-natural and vegan-friendly options, these gift choices will help Mum relax while also pampering her skin.
From flowers to fine jewellery and everything in between, show Mum how much you care while sharing the love with the local artists and shop owners that make our 4017 community so vibrant and unique.
