Is there anyone in the world who deserves to be spoilt more than mum? We think not. And what better way to show mum how much you care, and score some serious brownie points than with a carefully thought out gift from the West.
We’ve scoured the internet and asked our nearest and dearest for their fave West Aussie gifts for mum. From lush skincare to a boozy treat or classic homewares, here’s our wrap of the best local gifts you can get your hands on this Mother’s Day.
Tartes By Amanda
Price: $60
Whenever we start to stress about gifts, Tartes By Amanda always somehow saves the day. Her mother's day exclusive is the classic sweet-savoury tart, with a handcrafted strawberry rose and edible gold leaf. Name a fancier way to say “cheers, mum”? For $60, you can pick up your pack of four, and eat three on the way home.
Bamboo Luxe Pyjamas
Price: $119
Let’s get serious. Is there anything better than slipping into a pair of ridiculously great jammies after a long day? The answer is no. Treat mum to these ultra soft bamboo pyjamas from Surrounded by Beauty and her evenings (or all day Sunday) is about to get a whole lot better. Crafted from nothing but the best, these hypoallergenic, temperature regulating pjs are about as good as it gets.
Etereo Perla Earrings
Price: $43
We love absolutely everything from Perth based jewellery company Etereo. These gold and pearl earrings are on-trend yet classic and will match just about any outfit mum dons for a special occasion. Pair it with a ring or constellation necklace and you’re set to be the fave child.
Gin And Glassware From Republic Of Fremantle
Price: $95
We all know mum deserves a damn fine gin and tonic so we say pick her up an oh-so pretty and locally distilled bottle from Republic Of Fremantle. This one comes paired with two stunning NUDE glasses for $95. But if you want to go all out, throw in extras like a fancy bottle of tonic, some dry vermouth (for the martini mammas) and a dried garnish to make mum her own little cocktail kit.
Bubbles and Bouquets by Heritage Wine
Price: $100-$145
Two of our go-to mum’s day gifts together at last—champagne and flowers. The heroes at The Heritage Wine store have partnered with the flower fairies at Floret Boutique to bring you the ultimate mothers day gift pack. A bottle of champagne and a bouquet of flowers are two tried and tested gifts that always get the mum tick of approval. Order the gift that will undoubtedly make you the favourite child here, to pick up on Saturday.
Aurelle Oil Burner
Price: $35
mum will love diffusing her favourite essential oils with this stunning, WA made oil burner. Mix a few drops with water into the top saucer and pop a tea light candle underneath to make the house smell dreamy. The best bit? You can run into La Luna if you’ve left it till the last minute.
A Boujee Massage
Price: Various
This one will always make the list because it never fails. While you can check out our wrap of the best spas in Perth, we’ve also got some sneaky tips. The very special Lush Skin and Body in Mount Hawthorn is offering an upgrade on all vouchers above $150 and Clear Mind Studio will gift you a free sauna or float for every $150 you spend on gift cards before Mother’s Day. Yes please. Or, gift mum a voucher to Greenhaus Studio so she can relax muscles that have been in a knot since that one dance concert in 2007.

For the kids out there who have exhausted every candle, hand cream and bouquet of flowers, it's time to end that cycle. Postale is the saving grace this Mother’s Day.

Alisha turns her incredible pieces into prints—our pick of the moment is Blushed which you can check out at Inglewood store Mandi at Home.
Bahru Paris Leather Tote Bag

Bahru creates leather pieces that are equally as stylish as they are functional. We absolutely love this tote bag and reckon mum will think it's the bee's knees of her bag collection. If you want to get in and feel the leather for yourself, head on over to one of our favourite gift and lifestyle stores Wildwood Living—just be warned, you may end up walking out with more than you planned.

Sodashi skincare is nothing short of luxurious and in our humble opinion, one of the nicest gifts you can receive.
