Gift ideas for a sterling Mother's Day
michelle.graff@nationaljeweler.com
I find jewelry to be highly personal, so in that sense, giving it as a gift can be a pretty daunting feat. But lately, the bounty of sentimental, customizable designs on the market has made the process a lot easier for me.
From disk charms engraved with initials to a tiny owl pendant representing mom's wisdom, designers are offering plenty of gift options that speak right to mom. And with Mother's Day falling during spring, it's also a good time to think about fresh hues and her favorite gemstones. The best part is that plenty of the offerings are available in wallet-friendly silver, making it easier to go the jewelry route this year.
