Mum's the Word! - Exclusive Mother's Day Products

On the 10th March, the UK and Ireland will celebrate Mothering Sunday, more commonly known as Mother’s Day. This is a date when mothers and maternal figures are recognised for their selfless dedication and are presented with an array of treats and the opportunity for a day of complete relaxation.

Although the modern celebration of Mother’s Day was only created in America in 1908, the tradition of dedicating a day solely to mothers existed many years before. Most historians agree that, in the UK and Ireland, Mother’s Day was originally celebrated as part of the 16th-century Christian practice of a person being obliged to visit their ‘mother church’ once a year on Laetare Sunday. This had the welcome result of allowing mothers to be reunited with their sons and daughters who, as apprentices and military personnel, had worked away from home for the rest of the year. The custom, when coupled with the American Mother’s Day influence, created a date when every mother could be honoured and respected.

A greetings card is an essential part of the Mother’s Day experience. Harrison’s Direct have an extensive range of beautifully-designed cards that are sure to bring delight to their recipients. Offering variety to the customer is incredibly important and so we supply a distinctive and diverse selection of Mother’s Day cards from the elegant and contemporary to the refined and traditional.

A beautiful item in the Harrison’s Direct range of wholesale greetings cards is our textured Happy Mother’s Day card, with its artistically-minimal grey board finished with attractive and quirky designs rendered in white foil. A sleek, brown envelope features softly-textured ribs to add to the tactile pleasure of this gorgeous gift, which is supplied in a case quantity of six and at a competitive price.

For more traditional tastes, our three-fold Mother’s Day card is ideal. With a deeply-embossed foil caption and a design-shaped cut, this beautiful card features a design of pink roses surrounding a heartfelt sentiment presented in an elegant, swirling font. Again supplied in cases of six, these cards are proven best-sellers and appeal to a broad range of customers.

Although its official title is ‘Mother’s Day’, the celebration extends to include all maternal figures. Especially important is to honour the matriarch of the family: the grandmother. Many customers will be seeking a special gift for this important lady and the Harrison’s Direct ‘Nan’ candle in its attractive ceramic pot will be a definite best-seller.

A gift that is presented in an attractive wrap or bag will exude a special quality. We have a range of suitable choices available including our exclusive hand-painted gift bags. Available in a choice of size and design, these beautiful products are guaranteed to give any gift lots of extra pizazz and panache.

We would like to wish a Happy Mother’s Day to all of our customers. Please enjoy browsing our range and do not hesitate to get in touch with us; our customer-focused philosophy relies on your input.
