We’ve got you covered with our curated collection of art, craft and foodie experiences across Australia. From helping Mum create her own signature scent in Sydney to making one-of-a-kind resin art pieces in Brisbane, it’s never too late to find the perfect gift she’ll really want this Mother’s Day.

Ready to dive right in? Discover our 7 top picks for experience gifts for Mum to put a smile on her face.

1. Help Mum discover her signature scent in Sydney

Perfume making

Our first pick is an incredibly unique gift card for Mum that will not only allow you both to spend quality time together but also let her discover her signature scent. In this perfume making class at Kiss Ready Lips in Sydney, you and Mum will get the chance to blend custom fragrances while learning about the art of perfumery from experienced professionals. 

She’ll first get a science and history lesson on how fragrances work, pick her favourite scent from over 100 natural fragrances and take home two perfumes by the end of the class. Once armed with these newfound perfumery skills, she can continue to make it at home or come back to the studio for a re-fill! Whether you’re looking for Mother’s Day gifts for your mum or last-minute gift cards, a perfume making class might just be exactly what you’re looking for. With fragrant aromas wafting in the air like citrus, vanilla or lavender and her loved ones by her side, Mum is sure to love this gift from you.

2. Spend quality time with Mum at a flower arrangement class in Melbourne

If you want to take Mother’s Day flowers to the next level, surprise Mum with this digital gift card and help her learn how to make her own floral arrangement instead! Step inside this floristry studio in Melbourne and be guided by the lovely teacher and founder, Jemima at Bloomin’ Marvellous! She’ll guide you both through the step-by-step process of creating a gorgeous flower arrangement using a selection of seasonal blooms. Mum will get plenty of time to handpick flowers, arrange and design them and take home her own unique handmade arrangement. 

The best part? She’ll also get to sip on some sparkling champagne and spend quality time with you. After all, time is often the most precious gift for Mum, where she’ll absolutely love these few hours with you, playing with florals and chatting with you over her fav drink. So if your mother has a thing for blooming blossoms, gift this class to Mum this Mother’s Day and make her day extra special. 

3. Treat her to the ultimate skincare day in Brisbane

Does your Mum love a spa day (like we all do?) Then get her this e-gift card to a skincare making class in Brisbane! As the perfect combination of relaxation and self-care, this workshop will leave your mother feeling pampered and glowing as she learns about natural skincare products and how they can enhance her beauty routine.

Here, your teacher Sarah will help Mum learn to make these natural skincare products, from an exfoliating bath salt/scrub to a calming body oil and much more! She’ll get to take home these skincare products and treat her skin to the best spa day ever at home! Light up a candle, turn on her favourite music and let the skincare speak for itself. This experience is a truly wonderful Mother's Day gift and a well-deserved pampering session that she'll undoubtedly appreciate.

4. Find her creative flow at a resin art class in Perth

Resin art

Help Mum explore her artistic side at a resin art class in Perth! Channel her inner artist and create stunning pieces of artwork under the guidance of experienced teachers at Collective Obsessions. All materials and equipment are supplied, so she can have fun mixing and pouring her favourite pigments, colours and inks to create these stunning abstract designs. Even if Mum is a complete beginner to resin art, no problem! This class is open to all levels of experience, where she can create all sorts of resin art homewares that will add a pop of colour to her living space. With this resin art class, you’ll find one of the most unique Mother’s Day gift ideas in Australia that will allow your mum to unleash her creativity while creating something beautiful she can cherish forever.

5. Learn how to create glass art in Adelaide

Glass art

For those of you in Adelaide, we have the perfect last-minute Mother's Day gift idea—a glass art workshop by Joy Levins. Spend a lovely Sunday afternoon together and and enjoy the mindful process of glass making with Mum! In this particular class, you’ll be making a botanical leaf sculpture using glass. Your teacher will have already cut the glass for you, so it’s about piecing the artwork together. If your Mum loves a good puzzle or two, she’ll certainly adore getting this gift card.

6. Make silver or gold rings to match each other in Canberra

If you're looking for an unforgettable Mother's Day gift in Canberra, gift Mum this jewellery making class with blonde. Here, you and Mum will learn how to make beautiful rings to last forever. Your expert jeweller will guide you step-by-step through the process, from designing the ring to hammering the metal into shape and finally polishing it to perfection. For a fun idea, make matching silver or gold rings with Mum! Engrave these rings with each other’s initials, a quote that speaks to your relationship or perhaps with 'mother' and 'daughter'/'son'. Whatever Mum chooses, you'll both have a bespoke piece of jewellery, handcrafted by each other, that you can wear as a symbol of your bond.

7. Spoil Mum with a candle making class in Tasmania

Candle making

There's something incredibly soothing about a candle—the gentle flicker of the flame, the soft glow it casts and the calming aroma it emits. So for this Mother's Day, treat your mum to the same experience at a relaxing candle making class in Tasmania! In this class, your giftee will be taught by the team at Little Creation Co. how to mix fragrances and waxes and pour them into beautiful jars or moulds. She’ll also learn about colour theory and scent blending so that she can create candles that look as good as they smell. Your mum will love being able to choose her favourite fragrances and colours for her custom creations!

The best part is at the end of this fun-filled session, Mum will leave with several hand-poured candles that she can burn at home or give away as gifts. It’s like receiving multiple presents in one package!

Mother’s Day doesn’t have to be stressful this year even if you’re shopping at the last minute. With our range of exciting workshops and classes across Australia paired with the convenience of gift card options, you will surely find something special for your beloved mother.

Even if you may not know which workshop would be perfect for your mum, you can opt for a e-gift card. These gift card ideas for Mum are always appreciated as they provide flexibility and choice—two things every last-minute shopper loves. From e-gift cards to physical ones, these are practical gifts for your mum that let her choose what she wants when she wants it.

After all, there's no better way to say 'I love you' than by giving experiences filled with fun memories and new skills! So go ahead and make this Mother's Day unforgettable with our top picks for last-minute gifts in Australia.
