Make It an Artisans Mothers Day - Week 2 Gifts - 2026

Posted March 17, 2026

 

 

It's hard to believe that week 2 of the Mother's Day Countdown 2026, hosted by Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog came and went so quickly.  A total of 33 unique items from 11 talented artists were shared - each beauty a perfect Mother’s Day gift!  Since Mother's Day will be here before you know it - on May 10th - this is the perfect time to start thinking about and buying a gift(s) for your mom, grandmother, aunties and other loves ones.  Browse all the wonderful handmade shares for Week 2 of the Countdown, visit the shops of the artists featured and buy your Mom a beauty that was handmade / designed from the heart.  Many of the items are one of a kind designs.  This year, please support small Indie shops!  Shop Small! When you do so, you make us VERY happy!
