Mother's Day gift ideas

Mother's Day is approaching and you're looking for a gift idea that stands out from the crowd? We understand! Because a mum deserves better than a bunch of flowers bought in a rush on Sunday morning. At Petit Picotin, we've selected gifts that are useful, beautiful, durable… and personalised. Because a gift with her name or a word that reflects her is always 100x more meaningful.

Gift ideas for the globe-trotting mum

The weekend bag

This is THE gift she would never have thought to buy herself, but won't be able to live without. Neither too big nor too small, the weekend bag fits as carry-on luggage and easily holds three or four outfits, a toiletry bag and a pair of trainers. It is made from cotton twill woven in Portugal, a sturdy and durable fabric, and can be carried on the shoulder or crossbody depending on the mood. The finishing touch? It can be personalised with her name, a nickname, a word that represents her… a guaranteed rush of emotions when she opens the package.

The suitcase

For the well-travelled mum, Cerise the suitcase is an original and truly useful Mother's Day gift idea. Made from cotton in Portugal and personalised in Nantes, it is as much a trendy accessory as an indispensable travel companion. A gift that will travel to the four corners of the world with her.

The toiletry bag

We can't say it enough: a beautiful personalised toiletry bag is a sure-fire hit every time. Paulette, available in small and large versions at Petit Picotin, is made from linen on the outside and coated cotton on the inside. The result: it's elegant AND waterproof. You can fit everything inside, and the zip opening means you can find your things at a glance. Machine washable at 30°, it goes everywhere with mum without ever complaining.

Gift ideas for the trendy everyday mum

The tote bag

Practical, spacious and stylish, the Petit Picotin personalised tote bag is the ideal companion for all mums who juggle between work, errands and the kids' activities. You can fit absolutely everything in it and it remains beautiful in any situation. That's what we call a practical and clever gift.

The pouch

For the mum who always has 1001 little things to carry: keys, earphones, lip balm, charger… the Petit Picotin personalised pouch is perfect. Large or small, it slips into any bag, and with her name embroidered on it, it truly becomes hers. An original Mother's Day gift idea at a small price.

The gingham scarf

An accessory that's making a big comeback and that we love! The Petit Picotin gingham scarf is the finishing touch that elevates any look, tied in the hair, around the neck, on the handle of a bag or as a headband. Light, versatile and timeless, it's the kind of little gift you didn't expect but end up wearing absolutely all the time. Small budget, big impact guaranteed.

The laptop sleeve

For the hardworking mum, a personalised laptop sleeve is the gift that combines style and practicality. It protects her laptop, keeps her cables and belongings organised, and with a pretty embroidered name on it, it adds a personal touch to her working day. Original and useful: a double win.

Gift ideas for the mum who loves the beach and sunshine

The fouta

Mother's Day falls just before summer, the perfect opportunity to give her something to enjoy the lovely season. The personalised fouta is the ultimate beach accessory. Light, absorbent and ultra stylish, it can be worn as a towel, a sarong or a blanket depending on the mood. And with her name embroidered on it, there's no mistaking it for the one belonging to her sunbed neighbour. An original Mother's Day gift idea that already has a holiday feel.

The glasses case

Here's a gift we don't think of often enough, and yet! The personalised glasses case is both practical and pretty. No more finding your sunglasses scratched at the bottom of your beach bag. A discreet, useful and personalised gift — the perfect combination for an original idea.
