Mother’s Day is right around the corner and it’s one of my favorite times of the year because I love to get presents for my mom. You could say that my mom and I are pretty close, we talk at least every other day about all sorts of things. Over the years I’ve sent her surprises, on Mother’s Day, her birthday, and just because, with various things from flowers to jewelry. UncommonGoods offers collections of beautiful handmade pieces created by artisans all over the world. The gifts you’ll find here are completely unique and yet absolutely amazing.

The business practices of UncommonGoods are pretty awesome and that was one of the things that really stood out to me. They work with their artists to use sustainable or recycled materials when possible, to minimize their environmental impact. They have relationships with non-profit organizations through a program they’ve created called Better to Give. The UncommonGoods business model leaves their lowest paid hourly seasonal worker making 50% more than minimum wage. This is clearly a company that cares about the environment, their employees, customers, and the world in general. I love that so much!

Just perusing the site with my ten million tabs open…

Back to the perfect Mother’s Day pieces you will find at UncommonGoods, I want to talk about some of the things that I fell in love with. I had tons of tabs open at once, trying to decide which items were my favorite. The site itself is just so fun to browse because these aren’t things you’ll find everywhere and not only are they beautiful pieces of artwork, but they’re so functional within the home.

 

The Personalized Family Member Signpost would look unbelievably adorable in our garden, pointing which direction you can find our favorite people. I would especially love something like this one day when my children are living all over the country or maybe even the world! It’s such a cute way to include the whole family in your decor!

Mothers are dealing with a lot of stress on a regular basis and I love the idea of anything that might help to calm me, a little “Goosfraba” time, if you will. When I saw the Deep Sea Sand Art, my mind and body instantly felt that serenity. UncommonGoods has all types of stunning home decor, from more relaxing sand art options to some extremely unique lighting fixtures!

My Life Story – So Far is a journal full of prompts for recording your life experiences, something I’ve always been a sucker for! Obviously, I love to write and I’m all about keeping records of every little thing in our lives. My memory is terrible now so I know that one day, I will re-live all of these memories as I read through my recollection of them.

 

A personal favorite, Lumen Oil Candle Shadow Projectors, I had actually come upon on social media a while ago but the gorgeous picture had no link and I had no idea where to get them! I was thrilled to see these, just look at those amazing shadows that they project!

 

A great one that can be used for the little ones too is the What I Love About Mom By Me Book. Whether your children are grown or young, filling in the blanks will make Mom feel important with such a personalized gift from the heart.

 

The Personalized Family Pillow can include your entire family (even for my big family!) and your pets. My pillow would be a busy one but surely an incredibly blessed one worth being proud of! It would be perfect as a throw pillow on any couch or my own personal bed. Completely adorable! If it’s personalized gifts you’re looking for, click here to find more!
