Mother's Day Ideas

It is four weeks until Mother's Day.  And while I usually put things off until the last minute, I thought this year I would start collecting gift ideas early.  Below are some of my Mother's Day jewelry thoughts . . . 
1.  I always think lockets are a great gift for Mothers as they are a perfect way to cherish pictures of their children.  

Vintage Enamel Butterfly Brooch
2.  Brooches are beautiful because they are each a mini work of wearable art.  

Arts & Crafts Amethyst & Enamel Ring
3.  A fun ring can be just the tickets.

1920's Pearl & Diamond Earrings
4.  A pair of earrings can be a sweet heirloom gift.
