This post is dedicated to all the moms! So many of our mothers were the ones to teach us how to make things. My mom, Judy, is an art teacher/farmer/chef who can make just about anything. She's like a whirling-dervish-artistic-MacGyver in a female body. Although I didn't pick up as many of the skills from her as I should have, she instilled in me a real appreciation for art and craft. But unlike me, she's not into the whole computer interface side of arts and crafts, so I'll be helping her out this season with her holiday shopping online at Etsy.
I know many of you reading this have mothers like mine. Moms are often the ones who give the most, so here are some gifts ideas (inspired by my mom's style) to get you thinking of those ladies in your lives!

Thanks for having a word about this topic. Maybe if I show my own mother articles like this, she might one day be brave enough to buy something online..... and discover that nothing bad happens. :)

All of these are so beautiful! The art brooch, the mug and the textile flowers are particularly lovely!

I'm a mommy! I love to get sachets of gourmet coffee, definitely my thing. My own mother would love that wrap (she wears one nearly every day) and the journal.

Lets not forget all the Esty artist and crafter Moms who are dedicated to their work and their children. That is a lot of hard work :)

This is sweet. My mom loves Victorian lady type things and I get so many ideas for her gifts.
Take a look in my shop: free shipping on any two or more items, no limit.
