FAIR TRADE + ETHICAL MOTHER’S DAY GIFT GUIDE
Mother’s Day is fast approaching and I’m here to share some of my favorite Mother’s Day gifts from Trades of Hope. There is something for everyone and for every budget. Let’s take a look at some of my picks!
At Trades of Hope, we honor mothers by helping them do what they want more than anything:
- To care for their children
- To provide for their needs
- To help them grow up healthy
- To encourage their dreams
- To give them every opportunity to succeed
- To see them reach their dreams and fulfill their purpose
Some mothers need other people to come alongside them to help make this possible. They want so badly to give their children the world, but circumstances can leave them without hope. When others come along who can offer them a healthy, sustainable way to provide for their family, the silver lining starts to peek through those dark storm clouds. When partnerships are formed, those skies get a little brighter. When a mom earns an income, the deluge begins to ease and she knows the clouds will soon break.
You have the ability and opportunity to help the sunshine return again.
April Giveback
I don’t know why I’m surprised every time (since I know Trades of Hope is awesome and loves to spoil us) but just in time, Trades of Hope spoiled us on top of all of the other incentives they have going on by releasing this new promotion!
With every order in April, you’ll show love by donating 10 meals to Feeding America. Your qualifying purchases will make a double impact this month, blessing artisans around the world while helping families here at home!
When you shop through my links, you are also contributing to the current hostess incentive and Map to Inspire goals, so it’s quadruple the impact!
MY TOP 10 PICKS:
1. PURE LOVE BRACELET
These bracelets are less than $25, so grab a few and either match the mom you’re buying for, or give them out to all the moms you are buying for! It’s also simple and versatile, so something she can wear every day! How precious would it be for her to know that her bracelet is helping mamas keep their babies in Haiti?
Haiti had this century’s worst natural disaster and is home to almost 500,000 orphans. The majority of the orphans have not been orphaned by parental deaths or natural disasters, but by parents who gave them up simply because they could not feed them. The group we work with is an “un-orphanage” and is helping with the orphan crisis by providing parents with sustainable business through creating products.

2. EPIPHANY EARRING SET
This set would be perfect for breaking up and giving to 2 moms you’re buying for, or give her one and keep one for yourself, so you can match her! They’re both classic and trendy and would look good on any generation!
The women we partner with in India do so much more than just create beautiful products. With every purchase, another woman is empowered out of poverty to be self-reliant! Women have the opportunity to earn an income, attend financial management classes, and receive education and healthcare. These women are now able to give their family a promising future because of your purchase!

5. THE FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE BOWLS
Although these are technically 3 separate items, you could buy all 3 and give her a complete set! Or… ask her which one she likes best and give 1 to each of the moms you are shopping for! She could use it as a decorative bowl on her table, or hang it up on the wall! These are some of our most popular items so I’m sure she’ll love it!

6. BLUSH RABIA BAG
This bag reminds me of a designer handbag. And, well, it is. 😉 It’s just that our version is designed and produced by hand in India by ladies who know their worth and are being paid a fair wage. AND this bag is HALF the price than the “big name” bag it reminds me of. YES.
India is home to one-fourth of the world’s poorest people. But these Artisans are creating on-trend handcrafted leather designs that help families thrive with fair wages, interest-free home loans, education, and more.

7. BLOSSOMING HOPE WALL ART
Your mom will love this wall art! Bonus points if her name is Hope!
Handcrafted from upcycled steel oil drums, this leaf-inspired design is carefully hand-cut and hammered and then painted with a burnished copper finish.

8. THE BOHEMIAN BAG
Moms are always carrying everything but the kitchen sink in their bags, right?! This bag is roomy and reminds me of a diaper bag! It would be such a fun bag that would set her apart from the other moms out there… and her kiddos would be amused by those pom-poms I’m sure!

9. ELISABETH NECKLACE
When I think of a necklace to buy for a mom as a Mother’s Day gift, I always think of classic and simple. This would be a great necklace that she could wear every day, could dress up or down, and with the 3 shades of gold it will always match her jewelry! I think it would be extra special if she had 3 kids or grandkids and the 3 rings could represent those. Just a thought!

10. RADIANT NECKLACE
On-trend set of 3 layered necklaces that can be worn together or separately, featuring a labradorite stone, hammered discs, and a blue topaz crystal drop.
Love this necklace, it’s so simple and elegant! My tip? Take the small stone strand for yourself so you can match your mama! Or, if she prefers the smaller one, you take the big one! That’s what I would do… just a thought. 🙂
