5 Christmas gift ideas for your mum

5 Christmas gifts for mum that she'll love

Finding gifts for mum on Christmas is not an easy task. And even though mum will always tell us that she likes our present one way or the other, we would like to give her a Christmas present this year that she'll adore! So by opting for refurbished items for mum's Christmas gifts this year, you’ll help reduce your footprint on the environment and save money – and still make your present extra special!

1. A new-ish smartphone for Christmas

Is your mom into tech? Are the photos she sends you starting to look a bit vintage? Or maybe her phone is so old that you wonder how she can still call you on it? 😬 A newer smartphone can be the ideal gift for Christmas this year! 

On Back Market, you can easily find THE smartphone that corresponds to her needs. If she has an older iPhone, why not give her a refurbished iPhone 11 for Christmas? Or why not a refurbished Samsung smartphone that you can find at a very low price? 

It doesn’t have to be the latest smartphone if she won’t benefit from all the latest features. Most moms would prefer a phone that works simply – and that you gave her thoughtfully. 💜

2. A smartwatch for connectivity and fitness

If your mom is a connected woman, combine business with pleasure by gifting her a smartwatch this Christmas! It’s a good idea especially if she isn’t a connected woman and tends to forget her phone. 😅 Now there aren’t any excuses for not answering our calls the first time, mum!

Available from several brands for various purposes, there’s a smartwatch for everyone. If they have an iPhone, the Apple Watch is probably the best bet. Likewise, Samsung Galaxy watches are great for Samsung smartphone users. Or if your mom is very into fitness, pick up a Fitbit or Garmin watch instead. 

In any case, as long as you consider how your mom would likely use the watch, she’s sure to enjoy it daily. To go the extra mile, you can even get a little engraving! All good Christmas gift ideas for mum should be a little personalized! 😉

3. The gift of music with a Bluetooth speaker

If your mum's living room still has a stereo from the Jurassic era, it's time for you to bring her into the 21st century! While home theatre systems can be expensive, even little speakers will be sure to elevate her singing throughout the house.

A Bluetooth speaker can be the perfect gift if your mother loves music but struggles with complicated equipment. They’re easily portable for carrying throughout the house, most have great sound quality, and they’re usually ultra-easy to use.

4. A hair straightener for an at-home salon

Your mom loves her hair, but she doesn't necessarily love making time (or spending money) to go to the hair salon? This could be a great Christmas gift for mum from daughters who probably have a similar type of hair!

A hair straightener quickly detangles, smoothens and straightens hair. Since they’re so lightweight and easy to use, Mum will be able to achieve her favourite hairstyles without anyone's help.

5. A food processor for easy cooking

Cooking a passion for your mum or dad (you can very well make a joint gift)? Unless your parents like spending hours in the kitchen, consider the food processor! 

Available with all kinds of chefs in mind, you’ll need to pick the one that’ll be most useful. From a Thermomix to the Cookéo pastry robot, you will find our refurbished food processors suitable for all uses and all budgets.
