After all, for the woman who gave you life (those nine months of pregnancy ain’t easy you know), only the best will do, don’t you think?

Mummyfique’s #Myfiquemum Weekend at Gallery & Co

To celebrate Mother’s Day, the team here at Mummyfique have put together our #myfiquemum social media campaign where everyone gets to nominate a mum that inspires them so that she can receive a special care pack lovingly curated by our team. The top 10 mums whose stories have been nominated will have their story featured on our site and receive an amazing set of prizes (worth more than $1000). But that’s not all. Together with Gallery & Co (where the redemption point for the care packs are), we have a weekend of activities planned for the family. There will be a floral station curated by Fleurapy, a kids colouring corner, a photo booth, a wishing wall and complimentary popcorn! We’ll also be having a pop up so you can can check us out and support a mum by buying one of our handmade ‘by mothers for mothers’ products and pick up a gift for mother’s day while you’re at it. Remember to join in the contest so that your mum-spiration gets her exclusive care pack! More details here.
