Mother’s Day Gift Guide
WRITTEN BY EMMA GEARY & CURATED BY KATE WING - APRIL 30, 2023
Mum, mama, mom, madre - no matter what you call her, she’s been there for you through birthdays, breakups, big changes, and everything in between. Spring is here and so is our favorite day in May - it’s almost Mother’s Day!
What better way to show your mom how much you appreciate her than with a locally made gift from our incredible community of Collective makers and businesses?! Here are a few of the gorgeous gifts we’re adding to our picnic basket this spring.
Anna Lisabeth
Cluttered Tabletop
Every mom knows the pain of a cluttered tabletop, but luckily this one is much prettier and completely mess-free! A still life from Anna Lisbeth is the perfect way to add color and calm to her space.
Big Stick Studio
Bike Wooden Puzzle
Spend your next visit with your mom doing an adorable puzzle together. Even better: Big Stick Studio plants a tree for every puzzle sold. It’s a win-win for both mom and mother Earth!
Cait Courneya
Abstract Mini No. 3
With soft, organic shapes and muted colors, this piece by Cait Courneya is an abstract way to add whimsy to her home. Plus, it’s an original work, so you’re gifting something one-of-a-kind for your one-in-a-million mama.
Cym Warkov Ceramics
Small 05 Curvy
These are a Clubhouse favorite, and for good reason. With natural, organic lines and tons of texture, this vase looks gorgeous on it’s own, or with a bouquet of fresh cut flowers from mom’s garden.
Bonus! All vases from Cym Warkov Ceramics will be on sale until 5/12!
Ellen Jewelry
The M.O.P. Ring
The Mother of Pearl ring is a classic, luxurious piece that makes a great gift for mom no matter her style. Grab one for yourself and your grandmother too, and create a generational gift that will last a lifetime.
J'Adore Beddor Vintage
Vintage White Tea Cup with Gold Trim
Tea time tastes better with vintage cups. This adorable pair from England is the perfect addition to your mom’s cozy mug collection, and the gold rim detail adds a special luxe touch.
Jane Candle Co.
Breakfast in Paris Candle
While you might not be able to swing Breakfast in Paris this year, we think Jane Candle Co’s Breakfast in Paris scent is a close second. This candle smells like a spring morning with croissants in the oven - what could be better?
Jenny in the City
Tyra Oversized Cotton Button Down // Cherry Blossom
Button down shirts are a wardrobe staple, and gifting this pretty pink oversized one from Jenny in the City is an effortless way to keep your mom cool all summer. From work to a poolside cover-up, this is a piece she’ll use all season long.
