Happy (almost) Mother’s Day!
With this lovely holiday just around the corner, I wanted to highlight a few of my favorite shop’s that I highly recommend you shop from for Mother’s Day this season! I mean, your mom will love however you honor her special day, but why not step up your game and give an extra special gift, that will also support a small shop owner as well? Several of these shop also donate to other people in need, so your purchase would literally be a triple one!
One: You get to become daughter of the year with an incredible and intentional gift!
Two: You’re support a maker in their field of expertise, and helping to fuel their God-given gifts and talents.
Three: Some of these shops donate a portion of every purchase to help others in need!

Alright, so without further adieu – let’s get to it!
Lindsey from Stamped And Finch:Website | Shop | Instagram
Lindsey is hands down one of my favorite jewelers! I feel like everything she touches turns to gold. Okay, maybe that’s not true, but all of her products are so heartfelt and meaningful, and I love how passionate she is about words. She sells jewelry with beautiful phrases and meanings already attached, but her real niche is being able to customize her products into a word or phrase that you can carry with you wherever you go! I personally have several pieces of her jewelry, and I love the personalization I have with each and every piece.
She recently launched a beautiful new spring collection with a ton of incredible products, and I highly recommend that you check it out! Here’s a link to the new goodies.
Anna Kay from Anna Kay Artworks:Website | Shop | Instagram
My sweet friend Anna Kay is an extremely talented watercolor artist! She specializes in commissions where she takes meaningful moments from your life (your wedding day, your first home, an engagement sessions, etc) and draws them out for you. I absolutely love this!
However, this process takes a few weeks, so since Mother’s Day is around the corner, I thought I would share her beautiful watercolor stationary! This is a beautiful set of either 8 or 16, and would be a great gift to give to your mom.
Allyson from Printable Happies:Website | Shop | Instagram
Allyson is another fellow letterer and product guru. This lady truly kills it when it comes to products – she has such a variety of products with fun and joyful phrases! I love her happy spirit, and am always amazed by the variety of items she is able to carry in her shop. She is one of those “one stop shop” kinda people, because I think there’s a little something for everyone in her shop. Definitely check her out!
Tiffany from Brave Little Ones:Website | Shop | Instagram
This is one of my personal favorite mama/baby shirt combos! I may or may not have already purchased this set for whenever we start a family 😉 I legit think this is the cutest combo, and I love supporting Tiffany! She’s another fellow screenprinting gal, and she’s the one who told me about Under His Umbrella (the organization she gives a large portion of her proceeds to). She’s really involved in the UHU school, even giving away a shirt for all the students to wear as part of their uniform! I love her heart and the beautiful products that she makes. Hands down the best place to shop if you need some cute goodies for a sweet little one!
Emily from Sizelove Calligraphy & Design:Website | Shop | Instagram
If your mom has always wanted to learn how to letter, or you want to give her a gift of something that y’all can work on/learn together, this workbook is perfect! Emily recently came out with this *mini* edition, which is only $25! So this is a perfect, thoughtful gift that encourages as experience and possibly a moment shared between yourself and your mom!
Plus, a little added bonus, Emily is about to have her first little one enter into the world! So what better way to celebrate your mama and another mama maker in the process?
Shannon of Paperglaze Calligraphy:Website | Shop | Instagram
I’ve known Shannon since before my business started, and I’ve always admired her heart for the Lord and desire to share scriptures with others in a beautiful way. I remember when she launched her Bella Scriptura prints, and I was actually there when she taught her first lettering class! I am thankful for her mentorship, expertise, and for being an incredible mom and entrepreneur!
So like I mentioned before, she has a beautiful line of Bella Scriptura prints – they are lettered scriptures in a beautiful calligraphy-designed style. These prints are the perfect gift and encouragement to your sweet mama! Add in a beautiful frame from Target or TJ Maxx, and you’ll be golden!

If you’re more so the kind of person that likes to makes meaningful gifts, Teresa of Debrosse NYC has a huge collection of incredible and beautiful gifts that you can purchase already made, or make for yourself! This blanket looks so cozy and perfect, and it would be an incredible and special gift for you to give to your lovely mama.
I recently found Teresa on Instagram, and I love her sassy personality! She is pretty much the queen of minimalistic style, monochromatic everything, and she is an organizational queen! She lives in a tiny apartment in New York, and I always enjoy when she shares stories on how her couch doubles as storage for her business.
She is passionate about Haiti, and her business is actually named after a little boy she fell in love with after a visit to the country. She currently employs his mama as a maker in the shop!
