Make It an Artisans Mothers Day - Week 5 Gifts - 2026

Another week of the Countdown to Mother's Day 2026 has come and gone.  Hard to believe we're over 1/2 way through the nine week promotion!  Week 5 of the Countdown was hosted again by Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog.  Twenty-seven unique handmade / designed items were shared from eight artists.  Many are one of a kind and each will make a memorable gift for Mom on her big day.  Since Mother's Day will be here before you know it, on May 10, this year this is the perfect time to think about and start buying a gift(s) for your Mom, grandmom, aunts . . . and, perhaps, for yourself.  Browse all the wonderful handmade shares on the Countdown - Week 5, visit the shops of the artists featured and buy your Mom a beautiful gift that was handmade / designed from the heart.  For this year's Mother's Day:  PLEASE BUY HANDMADE and support a small, indie business!

Here are my "favorite" picks from all the wonderful items shared:
