New April Products & Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Mother's Day is May 9th, which is quickly approaching! All mothers deserve something pretty on their special day and I'd love to help you put a smile on your favorite lady's face this year. These last few months, I've been working tirelessly to make, photograph, and add lots of new products to our website. I absolutely love to design new jewelry and many of these pieces have been on the back burner for quite a while. I'm glad to have them available for you in time for Mother's Day, and I hope you like them as much as I do!

April 16th is the last day to order Custom Engraved Handprint and Footprint Jewelry for guaranteed delivery by Mother's Day (in the United States only).

April 23rd is the last day to order Personalized and Engraved Jewelry to be delivered in time for Mother's Day.
If you are ordering one of these unique keepsakes after the deadline, you can print out a Gift Presentation Card to insert in her card to let her know that a handcrafted treasure is on it's way.
Here is a list of popular Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Mother's Day is a particularly difficult holiday for a woman whose child(ren) has passed away. What should be a day of happiness and celebration becomes lonely and painful for the bereaved mother. While she is still a mother, the outside world may not acknowledge that. If you know a woman who is grieving the loss of her child(ren), be sure to reach out to her on Mother's Day. You can visit her, send a card, or call her to let her know that she is in your thoughts and that you are remembering her child(ren), that they are not forgotten. If you are a bereaved mother, try to communicate with your family how they can help you to get through this holiday. Be gentle with yourself and don't participate in any activities that you don't want to. As always, you are all in my prayers. May God bless you and give you peace, comfort, and strength this Mother's Day.
Here is a special poem I wrote for the Mothers of Angels:

A Mother's Day Ode
I am your mother, but you, my child, I cannot hold.
It'll get easier with time, or so I'm told.
People may forget that I am your mother.
I'm part of a secret club we only share with one another.
But that doesn't diminsh my love for you.
I think of you the whole day through.
I wonder what you're doing, my Precious Little One.
We are connected by an Infinite bond which cannot come undone.
I will not let death tear us apart.
I promise to always keep you alive in my heart.

All Forget-Me-Not bracelets come with a poetry
card of our original Forget Me Not poem:

Forget Me Not
Forget me not as you go about your day
And when the winter wind howls my name
Forget me not in the lonely darkness of the night
And in the warm brightness of the sun light
Forget me not in the freshness of the morning dew
And in the spring when life begins anew
For I am in you and you are in me
I will always live in your heart
As long as you Forget Me Not
~ Susan Mosquera, all rights reserved

The following Rose-themed floral bracelets come with the Tiny Rosebud poetry card, perfect to symbolize a miscarriage, stillbirth, or baby-infant loss:

The Tiny Rosebud
The Master Gardener from Heaven above
Planted a seed in the garden of love
And from it grew a rosebud small
That never had time to open at all
For God in His perfect and all wise way
Chose this rose for his heavenly bouquet
So think of your darling with the angels above
Secure and contented and surrounded by love
And remember that God blessed and enriched your lives too
For in dying, your darling brought Heaven closer to you.
~Author Unknown
