Unique Gifts

To make treating Mum just a little easier, we’ve whipped up a comprehensive list of a dozen extra-special gifts (for every budget) that she’ll absolutely love this Mother’s Day

Gift Box 3 from FAID Store

Support local creatives and buy from FAID Store, a boutique in The Rocks that only stocks the work of Australian designers. Our pick is the beautiful gift box three, an elegant package featuring a Ryan & Co natural candle, a Hunter Made botanically dyed scarf and a Hunter Made gift card. $80

Noosa boulder opal and gold necklace from Jason Ree

If the lady in your life deserves a truly special gift, handmade artisanal jewellery from Jason Ree is a brilliant place to start. We love this 2.70ct boulder opal necklace which was inspired by the beautiful setting sun over Noosa Beach and features a kaleidoscope of shimmering colours. $1800

Silk Scunchies by Eloise Panetta

If the lucky lady you’re shopping for has a penchant for pastel, she’ll love Eloise Panetta’s gorgeous dyed silk products. Scrunchies are a good place to start - these luxurious hair ties are dyed using botanical inks and come in a range of designs. $50

The Balance set from The Ordinary

Not sure what to buy? Skincare is always a safe bet, especially from an iconic brand like The Ordinary. If you’d like to really impress her, check what potions she’s running low on and replace them. If you can’t do that subtly enough, grab the Balance Set which features a cleanser, masque, niacinamide solution and a moisturiser. It covers skincare essentials in a single box. From $70

The Lore Collector from Aesop

This gift pack includes a quartet of luxurious hand and body care products: a geranium leaf body cleanser, geranium leaf body balm, an aromatic hand balm and a hand wash that bursts with the smell of mandarin rind. It all comes in a charming recycled paper pulp case with short stories by Japanese poet Lafcadio Hearn thrown in for good measure. How cute is that? $140

The Relaxation Pack from Dux Collection

We bet the lady in your life works hard and deserves a moment every day to relax and indulge a little. That’s exactly what this luxurious pack from Dux Collection is all about, featuring a lavender rose geranium butter, tangerine oil bath scrub, rose geranium essential oil bath salts, a scented candle and much more. $160

Endota spa The Rocks

This 60-minute-long massage uses medium pressure over the entire body along with botanical oils to soothe tired muscles and revive the senses. Afterwards, that special lady will feel relaxed, balanced & rejuvenated (and you will most definitely be in the good books). From $120

Silk Pillow case from Hunting Hue

Silk pillowcases are proven to prevent wrinkles, prevent frizzy hair and help keep skin hydrated overnight. Hunting Hue sells one that your special lady will love, featuring a custom image of the ocean taken from above. $85

Aboriginal-made gifts at the MCA Store

Support local Indigenous artists and spoil her with an incredible gift made by members of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Our favourite is this beautiful green, red and black silk scarf featuring a unique design by Margaret Baragurra of the Yulparija people (of which only 12 were made). From $25

Design your own candy at Sticky

If that lady in your life’s got a sweet tooth, she’s going to love Sticky, makers of delicious traditional rock candy. Their ‘design your own candy’ product allows you to choose the colours and words on your bag of sweets and are perfect for showing Mum your appreciation or professing your love to your partner.
