Mother’s Day window shopping

Indie retailers get display vibe going for spring seasons

 

There are just a few shopping days to go before one of the biggest card-sending events of the year – Mother’s Day is on Sunday 19 March, and Easter is fast approaching too.

So, greeting card retailers have been getting their creative vibe going to ensure everyone knows it’s time to find exactly the right design to make sure your mum, step-mum, person who took on the mum role or even grown-up daughter celebrating their first Mother’s Day knows how much they’re loved.

And both Mothering Sunday and Easter – Good Friday falls on 7 April this year – have inspired some beautiful shop windows around the country, as PG Buzz features here…
