For Mom, by Mom

Your purchase not only pleases your own mom, but it supports the business of another mom because all these items are handmade by mothers throughout the country.



Customized bracelets. Among my favorite gifts are handcrafted natural wood bracelets with Mom's name or the kids' names made by Paloma's Nest in Austin, Texas. Each bracelet is reduced to $20 (plus shipping) Tuesday, May 5, and Wednesday, May 6, only.

NOTE: The Web site sold out of 500 customized bracelets this morning, so Mother's Day delivery is no longer possible. However if you reference this "GMA" offer, Paloma's Nest says it will honor the special rate when you place your order when the bracelets are back in stock. The company apologizes for the inconvenience.

Everything chocolate. From moms around the country, you'll find every imaginable combination of chocolate — from covered potato chips to cotton candy. Some popular standouts on Etsy.com include: Potato chips from Suzie's Confections ($8), cake bites from The Fetching Hound ($11) and potato chip clusters from Homespun Honey ($12). Cotton candy from Sugar Mohawk ($10) and cookie dough (minus the eggs) from A Sugar Affair ($14) are two other fun options.



No whining shirts. Planet Mom T-shirts offers humor and savings with its popular "Whine? No. Wine? Yes." shirt, which is discounted to $15 exclusively for Mother's Day.
