So what are you buying your mother?

[BitOutOfPractice]

I'm stuck completely for ideas for my lovely 80yo mom

Please inspire me!

[WeAllHaveWings]

Jigsaws. She’s housebound and still enjoys them (even though she needs to use a magnifying glass to see the pieces)

[Boopear]

Game of Thones S7 (as requested )

And afternoon tea voucher at posh local hotel and cashmere snood thing from Turtle Doves.

[SallyOMalley]

An annual subscription for her favourite magazine.

[secondhoneymoon]

Magazine subscription here too, also for 80+ year old. Plus a jigsaw, a book, DVD about lovely gardens. Calendar & diary at her request. Then stocking fillers, mainly practical things she'll use up

[secondhoneymoon]

Oh and some mini jams and chutneys so she gets a variety.

[Mildpanic]

Strictly Come Dancing tour tickets, she is mad about it.
Might also look into Joanna Lumley tour as she pretty much has all stuff she wants.

[stoptheclock1000]

A CD/tape/radio so she can play her old tapes! A marble angel and beauty salon vouchers

[dementedma]

So far Cashmere wrist warmers from TurtleDoves. Don't know what else....

Lovely personalised Tree Of Life broach
Personalised blanket scarf
Ferret Rocher

[AJPTaylor]

My mum, 78, fitbit Alta.

My mother is 87 and very active - I've in the past got her: tickets to a ballet, a manicure, a hair appointment (she goes every week), hand cream, face cream, lunch for two (with my father), framed photograph of my DD. I used to buy a piece of Lladro but she requested no more "things" a few years ago.

[MinkowskisButterfly]

A mug with the grankids mugs on it, a bottle of her favourite perfume and some chocolates.

[Stompythedinosaur]

I'm getting my mum the ancestry.com DNA testing kit, a photo calendar of the kids and a mini photo book of a holiday we took together last year. The kids will also make a decoration or something. And a copy of the kid's school photo in the size she wants.

[BitOutOfPractice]

Oh you marvellous people! Done brilliant ideas here and I so love the amazing variety of moms we have

[Aweektilltheseason]

Sadly lost mine too, very suddenly if I could go back I would have absolutely spoiled her rotten!! I was student and didn't earn much but I should have saved every penny to spoil her, she was devoted mother. I always appreciated her deeply but since seeing Mil in action... Wow... Spoil your mums!

[BitOutOfPractice]

Aww I will. I'm sure she knew she was loved and appreciated

[ColonelJackONeil]

Ferret Rocher
Is this a cute but slightly smelly choc with bite.

[Scoose]

My mum is ‘quirky’ I have bought her a massive spider necklace from tatty Devine and a Christie’s the jewellery archives book (she wanted both of these) also getting a little something else possibly Clarins shower mousse

[Scoose]

My mum is 58 and gets more eccentric with age 😂

[BitOutOfPractice]

I'd never even heard of wrist warmers or bee hotels before

[ItsAHardKn0ckLife1]

Etsy have lots of antique/vintage books for great prices! I want to get my mum a vintage copy of The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, which is her favourite

[annandale]

A glamorous walking stick from Emilyhannah and some bb cream to try. We have similar skin and it's really improved my life.

[wellhonestly]

I'm buying mine a watch that she'll be able to read the numbers on - I've noticed she's always squinting at her current watch as it has a shiny face and she can't always make out what the time is!

[IDoAllMyOwnStunts]

Tickets to The Nutcracker ballet.

[Abetes]

Birdbox and bird feeders.
