The mother of all gifts
Already planning on breakfast in bed? Make it sweeter with pastries from Budgie’s Bakeshop, OWL, or Old Europe.
Give her a piece of jewelry that sparkles and shines as much as she does. Mora Jewelry and Embellish Asheville have stunning collections from local makers.
For the fashion-forward mother figure, Clad and There There are favorites for stylish, ethically made threads and accessories.
For a gift as whimsical as she is, delighted gift shop is chock full of charming cards, puzzles, totes, and trinkets. Carolina Flowers, of course, has stunning stems, but the new Haywood Road shop also carries a great selection of candles, tea towels, bath bombs, sweets, vases, and more.
If mom would rather be outside, give the gift of gear with something handy from Second Gear. If gardening is more her thing, The Living Seed Company supplies an array of organic, heirloom seeds.
