Mother's Day is right around the corner. There aren't many people in this world who still show you unconditional love after being put through temper tantrums, dirty diapers, car sickness in the back seat, late nights worrying and waiting for you to come home, monetary loans, broken bones, hair color experimentation, or a few minor driving mishaps. I can't think of a better way to celebrate this special day than to present Mom with a photo album filled with memories of days gone by. Say thanks to her for always sticking by your side.

I love the beautiful chalk book.

April 29, 2009 at 1:07 a.m. rakubuttons

As an artist, I am always inspired by a shape or something I see when traveling. If I don't take notes and sketch it, I forget the idea. Notebooks are another of my addictions.
I just arranged to buy a couple (from a shop not included here) last week! I was also PiedCrow's first customer. Great product.
Great article.

April 29, 2009 at 2:53 a.m. fashionfucsia

Yes, indeed. Once an angsty teenager, turning up my nose at anything to do with tradition, sentimentality, or parenting...................now, a Mom, loving it all! Great idea!

April 29, 2009 at 10:22 a.m. EpicBones

nice post, there are so many well crafted books on etsy, i keep meaning to get one. waiting for my sister's bday :)

April 29, 2009 at 12:05 p.m. arethusa

My MOM is always telling me to write her stories so I can share with my family these journals would be perfect for that

April 29, 2009 at 12:17 p.m. Mattamorphis

Ive always wanted to learn how to do that.

fabulous!

April 29, 2009 at 12:50 p.m. VintageTwenty

What is more precious and irreplaceable than photos and the memories they capture? These photo albums are just the thing to give to any Mom on Mother's Day!

May 1, 2009 at 12:44 a.m. GigiBoards

My vote, the daily threads. Not too sure about pink roadsters :).

May 3, 2009 at 10:20 a.m. catsongstitchery

Beautiful books and a great idea for a gift too!

May 4, 2009 at 7:09 a.m. ThePenpoint

Arethusa mentions a great idea. What a gift it would be to have Mom, Dad or Grandparents write a journal of some things from their life that they would like to pass on to their kids and grandkids, and putting their stories on paper in a hand made journal would be a beautiful addition to the stories themselves.
