Mothers day is a special day to celebrate and be thankful for the amazing things that our mothers do in our life.
But where did it come from?
Mothering Sunday in the UK originated from the middle ages when people who had moved away from the place where they grew up came back and visited their mothers at home. This was typically on the fourth Sunday of the Christian festival of Lent. This means that the date of Mothering Sunday changes every year depending on when Lent falls that year.
In ways to celebrate your mother, a gift is a great idea to show your appreciation.
A scarf is the perfect accessory to add to any outfit when you want to make a statement or to just add that little extra.
This is a wonderful gift for any mother, especially the ones that say “oh you don’t have to get me anything”.
Respecting Mother’s day, there are many colours that are closely associated with mothers. Historically, green is a colour that represents the protective nature of mothers, while yellow alludes to their optimistic outlook towards life and for their children. Pink captures their compassionate and nurturing side and red focuses on their passion and empowerment drive.
These pashmina scarves are a practical and thoughtful choice for Mothering Sunday this year and would be perfect in combination with some lovely spring flowers.
