Gifts for Her

May is a chocka month for birthdays – and there’s so much to choose from! Maybe it’s because I’m still recovering from my lack of sweet stuff over Lent that I’ve become obsessed with baking and can’t stop finding presents relating to food.

And because I have so many birthday gifts to buy next month I’ve got to buy cheap gifts and stick to my budget of pressies under £10.

There are 4 Fijit Friends. Sage, Logan, Serafina and Willa. They’re cute, plastic, active toys that’ll more than likely become your childs best friend – and you won’t have to worry about them letting off stink bombs in the house.

These all-singing, all-dancing and all-giggling toys are like mini robots and you can have your very own Fijit from Amazon.co.uk for £41.25.

I’ve been experiencing a recent spate of being late for meetings, buses and even my own deadlines. Last night the light bulb went off in my head and I realised that I’ve become too dependent on my mobile phone (which lives in my handbag) to tell the time. What I actually need to do is start wearing a watch again.

And on my quest to find one I stumbled upon the Watch A Gift website. Despite the puntastic name it actually has some really funky watches sitting comfortably amongst some classic examples too.

This Zebra Bangle Watch for £14.99 is my favourite and would make a great present for my niece this Christmas.

Betty Boop is one of my all-time favourite iconic figures. She’s cute and sassy with a retro hairstyle and a stylish wardrobe. What’s not to like about her?

So imagine my delight at discovering a whole new range of Betty Boop gifts and collectables at thebrilliantgiftshop.co.uk. They’ve got a great collection of prints, ornaments, toiletries and a whole heap of other Gifts for Her ideas.

The Trolley Dolly looks like one of the most useful things I’ve ever seen! It’s perfect for those without a car or who want to reduce the number of plastic bags they use. It looks great too with a retro cream & chocolate brown disco dot design.

I never though I’d get so excited about a shopping bag but it’s definitely on my birthday wish list!

It’s the kind of shopping bag a superhero would use! You can buy the Trolley Dolly Shopper for £27.95 from Prezzy Box.

I’m a sucker for personalised gifts. They just seem to add that little extra bit of sentimentality to a present. Especially a Mother’s Day gift. Anyway, last chance to order something online in time for mum’s day on Sunday. Hurry!

For just £9.95 this Personalised Cup Cake Latte Mug could be on its way to your mum ready to put a smile on her face and a slug of caffeine in her body.

If you’re not sure what to get Mum on 3rd April for Mother’s Day, it’s always safe to stick to something useful. But I’ve just happened to find a pressie that’s pretty, practical and personalised!

This silver engraved Photo Keyring can be bought from Getting Personal for under £20 too so it should be within most people’s budget, but if it’s a bit on the pricey side for you why not club together with brothers and sisters to get it as a joint pressie.

This has to be one of the most unusual gift ideas I’ve ever seen so I just had to post it for everyone to see.

A pedicure session sounds like a heavenly, relaxing spa treatment until you discover that it’s actually a shoal of itty bitty fish nibbling away at all the dead skin on your tootsies. But at only £25 for a Fish Pedicure it’s a unique gift that won’t break the bank.

Whilst flowers may be a traditional Mother’s Day gift, there’s nothing ordinary about this Lemon Tree. And it’ll produce delicious lemons in the summer months – ideal for adding to a Gin and Tonic whilst relaxing on a hot, sunny day.

Buy a Lemon Tree online for £39.99 – it’ll make a really unusual but interesting present for your mum!

Mother’s Day falls late this year giving us all plenty of time to find the ideal gift to let your Mum know how much you appreciate her! Psst by the way, it’s on 3rd April.

Each week I’ll be featuring a Mother’s Day gift idea to give you some inspiration. This week it’s a special pamper day from Red Letter Days. The ultimate treat at a bargain price.

What Christmas present do you get for the woman who has everything? How about a stylish keyring that doubles up as a personal alarm, or a pedometer for dog lovers, walkers or joggers.

You can now buy several multi-tasking fashion accessories thanks to a company called ila security.
