Mother's Day Countdown - Handmade and Vintage Gifts, Week 9

 

 

It is with a somewhat heavy heart that I have to say that the Mother’s Day Countdown 2016 has come to a close.  The weekend of week 9 has come and gone and Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 8.  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 and vintage items any Mother will love to receive and cherish for years to come.  This week, 57 wondrous items were shared.  The items included: jewelry of many different styles, vintage postcards, business card holders, party items, crochet, sewing, polymer clay art, lampwork and more - so many different items and techniques.  Shop now!

 

 

Green Lampwork, Amethyst and Green Aventurine Bracelet Handmade by Mary of PrettyGonzo 

 

I’m sure all of the participants wish Julie and Blue of Blue Morning Expressions and polymerclaybeads MANY, MANY thanks for hosting such a successful Countdown.  And I'm sure everyone will agree that the Countdown was great fun with so many wonderfully creative items that are perfect for even the hardest-to-please Mom!
