Thoughtful Mother's Day Presents for Every Kind of Mum
Mother’s Day is a time to say “thank you” for the love, strength, and support our mums show us all year round. Whether you’re celebrating your mum, a mum figure, or someone who simply deserves a moment of peace and appreciation, choosing the perfect gift can make the day truly special.
At Heart & Home, we specialise in beautifully crafted Mothers Day presents that go beyond the usual. Our soy wax candle gift sets are lovingly made with rich, long-lasting fragrances and a touch of luxury, offering a heartfelt way to show you care.
The Origin of Mother's Day
Mother’s Day in the UK, traditionally known as Mothering Sunday, has its roots in the Christian calendar and dates back to the 16th century. Celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent, it was originally a time when people returned to their “mother church”—the main church or cathedral in their area—for a special service.
Over time, it evolved into a day to honour mothers and maternal figures, with families gathering and children often giving small tokens of appreciation. Unlike the U.S. version of Mother’s Day, which began in the early 20th century, the British tradition is deeply connected to religion and family reunions. You can learn more about its fascinating history from Wikipedia and BBC News.
