Countdown to Mother's Day - Handmade Gifts - Week 9

 

 

There is an old saying, “All good things must come to an end.”  It is with a somewhat heavy heart that I have to mention that the Mother’s Day Countdown 2017 has come to a close.  Week 9 of the Countdown has come and gone . . . and Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 14.  If you haven't done your shopping, there is still a bit of time, especially if you use expedited shipping or Mom is willing to wait for her perfect gift.  A fabulous place to shop is at Julie and Blu's Mother’s Day Countdown collection of handmade items.  On their The Blu Print blog, you will find that perfect handmade gift that Mother will love and cherish for years to come.  And you can always buy something for yourself!  This week, 57 wondrous items were shared by 19 talented artists.  The items include: jewelry of many different styles, party items, crochet, knitting, sewing, polymer clay magnets and pushpins, lampwork, woodworking and more - so many different items and techniques.  Shop now!
