Why This Breakfast in Bed Gift for Mum Is Special
Frequently Asked Questions
What's a cosy Mother's Day gift for winding down — is the Mother's Special Day Spoil Kit a good choice?
Yes, it's an easy evening routine for Mum. It includes lavender chamomile tea, a lavender sleep balm for the temples, a lavender sachet, a jar of lavender fridge magnets, a bookmark and a mini dried flower.
What makes the Mother's Special Day Spoil Kit different from other lavender gift kits?
The tea in this kit is made with culinary English lavender we grow ourselves on our family farm in Newstead, Waikato. It uses Lavandula angustifolia 'Pacific Blue', the Sleep Balm is made with our own steam-distilled lavender oil, and the sachet and mini dried flower come from the same spray-free fields.
What occasions suit this lavender Mother's Day gift kit?
Mother's Day is the main one, and it also suits Mum's birthday, a thinking-of-you moment or a thank-you.
Does this gift set arrive ready to give?
Yes — it arrives gift-boxed, ready to send straight to the recipient: just enter their address as the shipping address. To include a personal message, add one of our greeting cards to your order and write your message in the Gift message or special instructions box in your cart — we'll handwrite it on the card. Receipts are emailed to you, so no price or invoice goes in the parcel.
How does Mum use this lavender Mother's Day gift kit?
About an hour before bed, brew a cup of lavender chamomile tea. Rub a little sleep balm onto the temples or pulse points, and tuck the sachet into a drawer or pillowcase.
Does this lavender Mother's Day gift kit contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk?
The Lavender Sleep Balm contains beeswax and coconut oil, and the tea contains chamomile, which some people with daisy-family allergies avoid. None of the items contain nuts or milk. Full ingredient lists are on each product's own page.
Where does the lavender in this gift set come from?
The sleep balm is made with Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super') essential oil grown and steam-distilled on our family farm in Newstead, Waikato, and the sachet and dried flower hold lavender from the same fields. The tea uses our culinary English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Pacific Blue').
