Mother's Day: 7 fun and eco-friendly gift ideas

Fête des Mères : 7 idées cadeau sympas et écoresponsables

Mother's Day is approaching, and it's the perfect opportunity to treat your mom. If you're looking for unusual gift ideas, we've selected 7 original and eco-friendly suggestions for you. Forget the traditional pasta necklace and discover our inspirations!

1. A bouquet of dried French flowers.

If you want to make the pleasure of a bouquet of flowers last longer, dried flowers are perfect for Mother's Day. They last from 6 months to several years. There may be a slight degradation in color over time, which in no way detracts from the beauty of the creation. There are many varieties of dried flowers. Think of Monsieur Marguerite for unique creations in dried flowers, 100% natural or naturally colored, and - importantly, French.

As you can see, our FLOWER 50x50cm furoshiki wraps bouquets very nicely.

2. Flowers to share with the bees

What better way to delight both your mom's eyes and the bees than with wildflowers? If she has a garden or balcony, opt for small bags of honey-producing seeds. A brand like "Grainette" offers a pack of 10 tubes of organic honey-producing seed bombs to brighten up your outdoor space while also supporting biodiversity.

3. An adventurer's accessory

For moms who love to go on adventures, a hiking pole is a great idea! We recommend "Guidetti," a specialized French brand that offers stylish walking poles made of cork and wood. Perfect for combining comfort and style during your hikes!

Suggestions: A pair of binoculars is also a great accessory to add to your explorations.

4. A book (the essential)

A book is always a welcome gift. Here's a mini selection to inspire your choices:

  • Somb , by Max Monnehay
  • The Enigma of Room 622 , by Joël Dicker
  • The Hill We Climb , by Amanda Gorman
  • Belle Greene , by Alexandra Lapierre
  • The Queen's Game , by Walter Tevis
  • Burning was the gaze of Picasso , by Eugène Ebodé

And why not accompany your book with reusable Paké gift packaging , Petit Terra design ?

5. Serenity with yoga accessories

Giving someone a moment of well-being is always a thoughtful gesture. We recommend the eco-friendly yoga mats from the French brand "Yogamatata." Made of cork and natural rubber, these mats are non-slip and suitable for all practices. For a complete gift, you can also add their organic herbal teas, made in France.

6. A DIY gift

There's nothing like a homemade gift! Why not make a coffee grounds scrub, as suggested by La Ruche Qui Dit Oui? You can use recycled jars or opt for amber jars from "Little Pots," perfect for storing homemade cosmetics thanks to their UV filter.

7. An epicurean gift

For epicurean moms, why not give them a restaurant gift card? Choosing a restaurant on site can be difficult, so opt for a La Fourchette gift card and let them choose their own gourmet experience.

And of course, don't forget that the best gift is still a sincere “I love you”!
