I have been talking with the lovely Miles at Ligneus Products, to bring you an amazing new giveaway.
Who Are Ligneus
Ligneus Products are a family run wood manufacturing business, located in the Cotswolds. They are a wood manufacturing business, with the inspiration coming from the rustic natural beauty around them.
They offer a range of wooden products, which is continually expanding. Creating bespoke, branded and engraved products to customers specifications. Creating products for your home and garden.
I have always had a love of wood and wooden products. My Grandad was a Carpenter and had his own workshops. There was nothing I loved when I was younger and staying with my Grandparents, was spending time in his workshops watching him work and the smell of wood always transports me back to those happy memories.
Below is just a few of the products in their range, that I think you may love, or even a lovely gift for Mothers Day which is fast approaching.

I received a bunch of daffodils from our back garden one year from my little boy! I even saw him pick them and was intending to tell him off but when he presented them to me with a ‘Happy Mother’s Day Mam’ I couldn’t help but smile and say thank you!
A Card with ugly horse head on it.x
I once received an iron.
some dandelions from my son when he was small and a tena pad cos he said they make you wee the bed lol
A machine that re-seals plastic bags that produce come in for if you don’t want to use the whole bag.A little odd for a mother’s day gift.
A bun wrapper from my son. He’d made me a bun at nursery but had eaten it.
Tokens for housework assistance from my eldest. I don’t think they were ever cashed in!
3 years ago my boys bought me a hamster called Alan!
I got a gnome for the garden that wasn’t even painted
Gave my Mam a fake botox voucher…she wasn’t happy!
Bought my mum a kitten for myself. She had always said I couldn’t have one. So I bought one for her because I thought if I gave it to her as a present she wouldn’t send it back.
I bought my mum some hair dye lol
A back scrubber for me, was very unimpressed to say the least
I was brought some new kitchen pans.. thankfully that was just a joke present!
My kids love to make me coupon books for things like hugs and “free” days where they leave me alone for a while. It’s pretty sweet though. 🙂
It had to be a mask of the face of Keith Lemon
I gave my sister a cute babygrow whilst she was pregnant with my niece, so it was her first present ever on Mother’s Day. Little did I know it backfired on me, as I ended up holding baby for 14 1/2 years!
I gave my mum some biscuits shaped like Mrs Brown, she liked them
my son rarely gives me anything, and I usually give books – gave my mum a book on vegan cooking last year!
I once gave my mother a Leylandii bush as a mother’s day present, thinking it was a pretty houseplant. She lived on the 2nd floor!!
i gave my mum an electric tin opener
A snail from the garden in a box from my young son 🙁
A plastic salad spinner as a gift.
Not really very funny but one year my mum insisted that what she wanted was a peg bag and bags.
My son once drew me a card for mothers day with two giraffe on. We had recently been to the zoo. Only they didn’t look like giraffe, more like a gentlemans private parts 😂 the card took pride of place for all to see! It’s in his memory box now 😂😂
My daughter gave me a moulded blue lump of clay that she said was a model of me, it was not flattering I can tell you!, but she was only 5 bless her, I still have it on display 28 years later
I remember picking my mum some flowers but didnt know they were dandelions. She was not impressed lol
I received a mug with a drawing that my kids made of me…. it wasnt very flattering picture lol missing teeth…. boobs down to my knees lol its the thought that counts lol
I’m not sure I’ve ever given a funny present. I tend to stick with flowers and things I know my mum will like otherwise it would be a waste of money. As boring as that is!
cold toast!!! i still ate it though

My son got me a fresh chicken from the supermarket, he even wrapped it up
A shocking pink hoody, with TOP MUM in huge letters and and arrow pointing up. I still can’t believe she wears it outside the house.
When I was about 12 I got my mum what I thought was a beautiful card- it featured a shiny, sparkly green dragon in flight on a silver background. Inside I wrote, ‘Happy Mother’s Day you old dragon!’. For some reason, she wasn’t impressed 🙁
Last year I got a highland cow!
A friend had a gorgeous fluffy highland cow toy that I coveted every time we visited.
The girls mentioned it to hubby (I think they were embarrassed that every time we visited my friend all I wanted to do was cuddle the cow) and last year they decided to buy me one of my own. So now I own a gorgeous cuddly highland cow and I couldn’t be happier
I bought my mum a huge bar of chocolate but in the run up to Mothers Day I got told off (totally unfairly of course, since I considered myself an absolute angel) and sent to my room so I took great delight in sitting there and eating the whole lot. Can’t remember if I bought a replacement so I better add a bar of chocolate to her pressies this year.
A half eaten bar of Toblerone, two guilty little mice confessed sheepishly.
My kids have always bought me daffodils in a milk bottle. my oldest is 17 and he still does it…
A rose bush when I had just dug up all the rose bushes in my garden because I hated the thorns.
I give a clapping Monkey toy as a mothers day present before.
I dressed the same as my sister who my mum hadnt seen for a long time, i went in and said i forgot her present, i went out and my sister went in with flowers, it took my mum about 30 seconds before she shrieked 🙂

I once put one of these fake scratchcards in my mother’s card. I thought it was funny but she wasn’t as amused when she realised she hadn’t actually won £50,000.

When my son was very young I received a small piece of wood that he had cut off a large piece of wood. He was so proud that he’d managed to use a saw, all I could do was smile
i have never recieved anything odd from my kids but there still young so there is still time i once gave my mum a tesco value card for 25p as a joke she loved it
I have been very lucky and always received lovely Mother’s Day gifts, whether handmade or bought and I wouldn’t dare buy my own Mum something she’d hate!

I thought i was being kind.
A pair of huge granny knickers 😂😂 my mum wasn’t that old at the time
Not a present but made my mum breakfast in bed when I was a kid on Mother’s Day and was making cheese toasties.
Thing is I had never seen a block of butter before as we normally had margarine and I thought the butter was a block of cheese! Can see where this is going…
I received a fire extinguisher one year which was a little unexpected!
My Mum got me perfume once, well – she thought it was perfume, it was for men…. Oh the joys of not having a husband to do the mothers day pressie for you – and it was kind that she reminded me I was husbandless.. 😉
