If you’re thinking about making a gift for Mother’s Day, your creative juices are probably running up against the huge mental block that is the image of a crepe paper flower with a pipe cleaner stem that got slightly squished in your schoolbag when you were seven. And, we bet your mum still has it in a shoebox with some of the other little creations you ran home from school with, beaming with pride and the anticipation of your crafty Mother’s Day gift giving.
That feeling, the one you get when you make something for someone; planning what you’re going to make, searching around for all the different bits and bobs to make it, the whole idea then becoming a bit of a project that you’re pouring so much love and thought into, the making of the ‘thing’ and then that lovely moment when you present something you created with your head and your heart to someone special and you see their reaction (which we hope is a good one!).
These are proper ‘life moments’ and memory makers.
Creativity in craft gives you the opportunity to put so much love into whatever it is you’re making. Whether it’s the complex influsion process that stands behind our gin - every drop crafted slowly and carefully by our Gin Master Simon; his pride and passion in making the spirit is unrivalled – or a simple yet mouthwatering meal for friends, a cake with your children, a mix tape for an old friend or a present for someone who means the world to you.
When time, thought, care and energy has gone into the making process for something, we can’t help but feel that something a bit special has been added to our lives, that we’re the recipient of someone else’s love and good energy. We suppose that’s why as consumers, we’re moving away from the mass produced culture, seeking out ‘new and special’ and finding ways to add more meaning to our lives, and of course the lives of the people around us.
We think the best gifts are a mixture of things you can enjoy right at that very moment, and things you can keep forever as a reminder of that moment, so we got our crafty heads round the table and came up with the something we think is quite lovely as an idea for a Mother’s Day package.
You might do it exactly like this or you might add some of your ideas and put your own unique stamp on it.
For our Caorunn Mother’s Day Hamper we’re beautifully packaging the following items together with lots and lots of love:
