Tea set

We all know how much mums love tea. We also know how much they love pretty dinner ware. So how about giving them the best of both worlds? Get her a tea set!

Lazada has amazing deals on different designs of tea sets that range from modern simplicity to traditional Chinese. They're also selling them at affordable prices and are complete with delivery!

Customised cutting board

Get her a custom cutting board and she will no longer be crying while cutting onions! Okay, we're kidding. But who's to say a customised cutting board won't make the meat chopping and onion cutting at least a little more enjoyable?

Photobook provides customised cutting board services where you can choose from over 30 designs or create your own custom layout. They also come with 9 different board sizes and all are made with sustainable hard wearing Acacia Wood.

Recipe organiser

Cooking is probably at the top of their to-do list everyday and it's uncommon to see mums experimenting with new recipes. Especially when they're always watching cooking shows! Getting a recipe organiser would be perfect. Plus, it's heartwarming to know that someone in the house understands their love for cooking!
