10 Treasures from Etsy, Perfect for Mothers Day

Mothers Day can be a sad and emotional time for many people, the older I get the more I understand this. Therefore, I try to think of it as a day to celebrate family love. The love we have for our Mothers, but also for their mothers, our grandmothers. This love that will always be with us, the memory of that love will live on even when the people we love are gone…

My Mum and Mothers day in the USA.

My Mother lives in Florida, I haven’t seen her for a long time, we are planning a big catch up in May and I can’t wait. We also have the conundrum of choosing what Mothers day to celebrate because the US has a different date for Mothers day, than the one we celebrate in the UK. I buy Mothers day cards on the earlier UK date then save and send them to her later in time for the US date. I have been known to lose them after keeping them in a ‘safe’ place for so long!

Therefore, in plenty of time for both the UK date march 31st, and the US Mothers day on 12th May here are a few things that have caught my eye from Etsy
