You can’t go past beautiful flowers for a gorgie Mother’s Day pressie. We love this Sushi Rose on Saucer from Hybrid Botanical Stylist.

5: Stoneleigh Marlborough Pinot Noir rosé If your mum appreciates good vino, she’ll love the Stoneleigh Marlborough Pinot Noir Rosé. So what exactly is the wine like? Senior Stoneleigh Winemaker, Jamie Marfell says, “This fragrant and delicate rosé has been crafted from selected parcels of Marlborough Pinot Noir grapes to give the wine freshness, richness and balance.” Mmm… Delish!

6: Electorlux Energica vacuum If your mum is a clean freak, she’ll love the Energica from Electrolux. Far more exciting than the standard old vacuum, this puppy is a bagless, lightweight and upright cleaner with canister performance. It’s great for easy, compact use but with a 1600w max motor is still super powerful. When it comes to vacuums, this is top of the line! RRP$379 from Electrolux stockists.

If your mum has a sweet tooth, give her a delish treat with some scrummy baking.
