mothers day

[angel85]

What have you guys been preparing with mother's day in mind?

[lynnm]

I confess that since losing my Mum I haven't been inclined to do anything about it at all. Mother in Law gets a card I made but not a specially made one, just a stock on hubby writes 'Happy Mother's Day' in. It has been a long while now though (7 years) so maybe I should ...

Same here - my mum died 2 yars ago and OH's mum went a long time ago so sadly no mums to buy or make for - kinda takes the edge of it a bit:(

I have a feeling Angel85 (sorry, don't know your real name) was thinking about things for sale.

yes I think so to but I really haven't been able to put anything on my website for sale to do with Mothers Day

[GillJewel]

As I don't sell, just make for pleasure I don't think I would make my dear old mum a piece. Re-enforced after this mornings trip down the high street.

You can't move for mothers day (and its not even flippin March!).
Everything from diamonds to Pandora style beads, all in typical mum pinks, whites and purples.

My guility secret I have to admit it I was in Argos (not buying jewellery..honest) and a gold MUM pendant was on show.... oh god preserve us. But I guess this sort of thing sells???????

So from this I guess pink beaded pieces, with an obvious Mum image/wording.

Rose Quartz is a popular stone for Mothers Day gifts as it ticks all the Pink & warm/fuzzy boxes :)
Normally I advertise the Fingerprint pendants too....

My Mum never wears pink, so that would be no good for her.

I don't think my sales are ever any different for Mother's Day.

I have found that the Friday and Saturday just before Mother's Day tends to be much busier at the craft market than usual, and jewellery with pearls is often the best sellers.

Valentine's Day is usually a wash-out as many men prefer to stick to flowers and chocs, but Mother's Day sees both men and women buying jewellery for mummies - and let's hope that this year is no different :Y:

[silverrooms]

we have found that husbands and children have bought more than usual for mothers day this year - our range of silver bangles and cuffs has been particularly popular.

[caroleallen]

What's your name Silverrooms? It all seems a bit impersonal at the moment as all we know about you (I think) is that you have a big site and sell stuff that other people make. Do you make any of it yourself?

its seeming a little pork luncheon meat at the moment all these referring too websites.

[MuranoSilver]

Nope "others" were busy reporting it to admin so the decision could be made ;)

I"m doing a trunk sale at a really nice store the Sat before Mothers Day. Never done this before. I'm really looking forward to it.

[Ominicci]

Ha ha Cathy - your Mother's Day (May 9th) is a different date to ours (which was March 14th). What exactly is a Trunk Sale - we probably have an equivalent but I have visions of either selling out of a car trunk (UK = car boot) or a clothes trunk (uk = suitcase)?
