Mother’s Day is coming up quickly – Sunday, May 14th to be exact.  And if you’re still trying to find a Mother’s Day gift that will touch Mom’s heart AND fill her eyes with excitement, fear not, last minute shoppers!  There’s still time – and Mother’s Day jewelry makes it easy!  Here are a few brilliant ideas to help you find that unforgettable Mother’s Day gift for your unforgettable mom.   Mother’s Jewelry   Mother’s jewelry is a classic Mother’s Day gift idea that never goes out of style.  Mother’s jewelry typically features the birthstones of each of her children, and can be crafted as a Mother’s ring, pendant, or even earrings.  A fun, yet sentimental alternative to this traditional style of Mother’s jewelry is customized charms for a bracelet or necklace.  Charms can be engraved with the names of her children, birth dates, etc., and even embellished with birthstones for a little extra flair.  These Mother’s Day gift ideas are equally great for Step-Moms, Grandmothers and Aunts!   [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="485"]Kendra Scott Lee Earrings - The new classic Kendra Scott Lee Earrings - The new classic[/caption] Modern Day Classics   There is no Mother’s Day gift so timeless as the classic set of pearl jewelry.  And while the understated beauty and elegance of traditional pearls is a fashion staple, current jewelry trends have introduced a whole new interpretation of just what “classic” beauty can mean.  For the fashion-conscious mom, look for unique presentations in pearl jewelry, including layered pieces and pearls mixed with various other jewelry elements for a unique combination of texture and visual appeal.   Revive and Re-purpose   Vintage jewelry is one of the fashion world’s hottest trends, and there are nearly as many ways to re-purpose and wear vintage jewelry as there are pieces of it to be found.  But this trend goes far beyond just searching out these unique treasures – it’s more like a revival of classic trends mixed with modern style.  And the best part is that you can easily create – with the help of your jeweler, of course – a truly one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry for Mom, with sentimental value beyond compare, from her own heirloom jewelry collection.  With her permission, of course.   Many of us have sentimental pieces of vintage jewelry that’s been handed down by previous generations and, sadly, these beautiful gifts often end up collecting dust in the bottom of a drawer somewhere.  Why not bring them back to life?  In some cases, that can be as simple as having them polished up and repaired, as necessary.  But if you really want to get creative, consider having a solitaire stone reset into a new setting, or elements from various pieces of jewelry repurposed into a pendant… the options are endless; a truly unforgettable Mother’s Day gift…from the heart.
