Make It an Artisans Mothers Day - Week 9 Gifts - 2026

Posted May 5, 2026

 

 

Watch out!  Mother’s Day is looming - less than a week from now on Sunday, May 10.  Order artisan handmade / designed gifts NOW from all the beauties shared on the Mother's Day Countdown 2026 Week 9.  The Countdown was hosted again this year by Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog.  Hard to believe this is the last week of the Countdown - time sure flies by!  Despite that, 8 artisans shared a total of 24 wonderfully unique items, some of them one of a kind designs. Browse the wide range of eye-catching shares for this week, visit the shops of the artists featured and buy your Mom, Grandmother, aunties (or yourself!) something that was handmade / designed from the heart!  By shopping small, you'll also support a small indie business (and for that, we are eternally grateful!).  Remember:  SHOP SMALL!

 

Featured below are my favorites from this last Mother’s Day Countdown of 2026:
