Mother's Day Gift Guide
Mother’s Day is coming up, and a talented group of makers and creatives has gotten together to make gift-giving a little easier this year. We understand that this day can be tough for some, but if you have a person in your life that you think should be celebrated-we’ve also got you covered! All of these makers added thought, care and intentionality into the pieces they’ve created, so you can be sure that you’re gifting a truly unique item.
Since you are here, you already know that I am Wendy Woldenberg of WEND Jewelry in Seattle. Our rugged fine jewelry is sustainably sourced by using certified recycled gold, re-using your gold, and carefully sourcing the most ethical stones possible. We can melt down and re-purpose your heirlooms into new pieces honoring your journey! Shop WEND jewelry here and follow Wendy on Instagram @wendjewelry.
Liz Kelly Pottery is based out of Raleigh, NC. Two words that easily describe her mugs, plates and dinnerware would have to be “functional beauty”. Liz glazes her pieces in a range of warm & cool muted shades, and also has some highly detailed pieces-if that Mom in your life loves flowers get her a Liz Kelly mug ASAP. Shop her work here and follow her on Instagram @liz.kelly.pottery.
