    A beautiful gift for my mom that keeps on giving

    I got this mug for my mom and she absolutely loves it. The mug itself is nice quality, but what makes it so special is the QR feature. Each day she gets a new little message or prompt, and it's turned her morning coffee into something she really looks forward to. It's simple, thoughtful, and ended up being even more meaningful than I expected.

    A Sweet and Thoughtful Gift

    I got this frame as a gift from my son, and it moved me to tears. I don't get to see him often since he lives further away, but it was a sweet gesture for Mother's Day. He even wrote me a note that was etched on the back of the frame...so beautiful! I put the frame next to my bed and included a photo of the both of us. Love how it stands and love the floral design on it!

    Perfect gift for a mom!

    My mother loved it. It is sentimental but not flashy at all. It was exactly as it appeared on the website and was packaged very nicely.

    Perfect gift for my Mother-in-Law

    My mother-in-law loves to receive pieces of decorative jewelry. But, it's getting harder & harder to find anything special. These bangles, hand stamped with the names she calls her sons, evoke an emotional response. ...even an "Oh, nice!!" from my teenage daughter! They are delicate & beautiful! My entire family LOVES how they turned out. We highly recomment them.

    Pretty cardinal, nice enamel finish

    My step-daughter lost her mom and every time a cardinal would pop up, she felt her mom was watching over her....now she has this pretty necklace to keep her mom close to her heart all the time. The lovely remembrance card that comes with it just adds to the 'special-ness' of the necklace.
