Gifts for Mother’s Day

Beautifully Thoughtful, Just Like Her

This guide to gifts for Mother’s Day is a collection of finds that feel a little extra, a little special, and completely her. These are the kinds of pieces you stumble across and instantly think, “she’d love this.”

These are the little luxuries that elevate the everyday, objects that carry a sense of warmth and ease. Some are sentimental, others are playful. All of them? Collected with care, and perfect for spring.

Gifts for Mother’s Day, Designed With Her in Mind

From heirloom-y ceramics to delicate staples she didn’t know she needed, everything here is rooted in comfort, charm, and a little sparkle of nostalgia. Think soft color palettes, sweet garden details, and textures that feel lived-in and lovely.

It’s for the woman who lights the taper candles even on a Tuesday, who keeps matches in a brass box because it makes her smile, who finds beauty in quiet corners and everyday rituals.

These aren’t statement gifts. They’re soulful ones.

A Love Letter to the Women Who Made Us

A cozy, moody scene of someone writing a heartfelt note at a wooden desk. Surrounded by black-and-white family photos, fabric swatches, and a champagne flute, the moment feels nostalgic and intimate—like a personal tribute to motherhood.

 

This guide is a little love note—to the women who raised us, nurtured us, encouraged our creativity, and taught us how to move through the world with grace and strength. The mothers, grandmothers, aunts, chosen family, and mentors who show up in big and small ways.

Gifts for Mother’s Day say thank you—and carry meaning, intention, and a whisper of “I see you.”

We hope it makes your Mother’s Day shopping a breeze!

When we created our Design Guides, it wasn’t about offering a “budget workaround” or a one-size-fits-all look. We built them using the same exact process we use for our clients and our own homes.
Because the goal has never been to make your home look like ours. Or anyone else’s.
Your lifestyle is unique. Your space is unique. And your home should feel that way too.
What we are noticing lately is this:
Most people know the vibe they’re drawn to... but get stuck when it comes to decision-making.
What to actually buy. How big it should be. How to mix styles without it feeling chaotic. How to commit and not second-guess every choice.
So we’re toying with the idea of taking the guides a step further. Diving deeper into how to implement the styles, how to mix and match them, and sharing more of the behind-the-scenes designer thinking that usually stays in client work.
Would that be helpful? Would you want more guidance beyond just the shop links?
If you’re curious about our Design Guides (or want us to explain them further), comment ‘GUIDE’ and I’ll send you the link.
Designing your own home while running a business is a very specific kind of chaos. Timelines stretch, things get put on the back burner, and progress happens in tiny waves. There’s no rule book for this (as a personal project) and I’m constantly reminding myself that nothing is wrong just because it’s slow.
These videos are my way of zooming out. Because the truth is... we’ve come so far. Even when it doesn’t feel finished yet, even when rooms are still a few months away from being fully usable, there’s so much happening under the surface. This is creativity doing its work. And I’m trying to leave stress behind and actually enjoy watching it unfold.
Designing for our homes is one of my favorite things to do, but also the hardest. When it’s your space, you have a million ideas, a million things you want to try, and no one else to blame if you change your mind. But that freedom is the magic. I love client work, truly, but there’s something so special about not having to defend every decision or worry about someone second-guessing the vision.
This is how design is supposed to feel: trusting a direction, letting it evolve, not taking it so seriously that you squeeze the life out of it. When you collaborate instead of control, when you give the process room to breathe, that’s when the real Clouz Houz look shows up.
