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!

A little greenery goes a long way and the right garland goes even farther... I’m not decorating this year, but putting this together reminded me how much joy the little things bring.
If Christmas snuck up on you (same), this is your sign: you don’t need a full makeover to make your home feel festive. A strand of good garland, a ribbon moment, and a few twinkly lights.
Comment ‘HOLIDAY’ and I’ll send over our favorite garlands, plus the prettiest bows + ribbons to finish the look!
In my 40s, I was a stay-at-home mom, my husband had lost his job, and we were having to sell the home we’d poured our hearts into. 
Over the years, I’d designed and renovated our own spaces, even worked with an architect on our most ambitious project yet, and helped friends here and there. But never thought it could be my career.
Then our realtor asked, “Who designed this?” When I said it was me, she said: “Allison… why aren’t you doing this for a living?”
I didn’t have a degree or a portfolio… just grit, a dream I didn’t know I was holding, and three kids watching me start over. So I took the leap and launched Allison Clouser Interiors.
That leap became Clouz Houz—projects across the country, virtual clients, offering full-service work in Oregon and (now!) middle Tennessee. 
Somehow, along the way, our work started getting noticed. A gift I still don’t take for granted.
If you’re at the edge of something scary, know this: you’re never too old, too late, or too far behind.
You can start fresh.
You can build the life you’ve dreamed of.
You can surprise yourself.
All the tips and deets I shared on the blog yesterday… comment ‘BLOG’ and I’ll send you there.
I grew up with a mom that was Martha 2.0 and I inherited that same love for effortless, elevated hosting.
The truth? You don’t need to be perfect. A few simple ingredients, a little intention, and the people you love is all it takes to make memories that last a lifetime.
The Clouz Houz philosophy has always been simple: soul over perfection. We design homes that look lived-in, loved, and layered. Never sterile, never one-note.
Our process is rooted in mixing: mixing texture, mixing eras, mixing personal history with sculptural, collected pieces that bring depth and personality to a room.
When you work with us, you’re not getting a look….. you’re getting a story - one that grows with you.
If your home feels a little too “flat” we can help you create a space that feels uniquely yours!
Share with someone you think may need to hear this!
All heart. All soul. Ready to transform our new home🤍
