Five Star Gift Ideas

For your mom who loves vintage shopping and thrift store treasure hunting, I have a few personalized gift ideas that I think she will truly appreciate.

1. Antique Jewelry: Look for unique and intricate pieces of vintage jewelry that reflect her personal style. Vintage brooches, pendant necklaces, or statement rings can make a beautiful addition to her collection. You can even have the jewelry cleaned or polished, so they look as good as new!

2. Vintage Clothing Subscription Box: Give your mom the gift of a vintage clothing subscription box. Many services curate boxes with carefully selected vintage pieces based on personal preferences. It's like having a thrift store delivered right to her doorstep! This allows her to enjoy the thrill of discovery without leaving her home.

3. Personalized Vintage Map: Find a vintage map of a place that is important to your mom, such as the town she grew up in or a favorite vacation spot. You can have the map framed, and she can hang it as a beautiful and sentimental piece of wall decor.

4. Thrift Store Gift Card: Give your mom the freedom to explore and find her own treasures by surprising her with a gift card to her favorite thrift store. This way, she can search for unique finds and enjoy the thrill of the hunt on her own terms.

5. DIY Vintage Decor: Get crafty and create personalized vintage-inspired decor items for your mom. Upcycle old items you find at thrift stores into something new and unique. For example, you could turn vintage teacups into candles, or transform a vintage suitcase into a quirky storage solution. These DIY projects will show your mom how much thought and effort you put into her gift.

6. Vintage-inspired Books: If your mom enjoys reading, find vintage-inspired books or editions of her favorite novels. Look for beautifully illustrated versions or books with classic cover designs. This gift allows her to indulge in her love for vintage aesthetics while enjoying her favorite literary works.

Remember to consider your mom's taste and preferences when choosing a gift. Whether it's a vintage piece of jewelry or a trip to her favorite thrift store, the thoughtfulness behind the gift will surely make her feel loved and appreciated.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

“I made a map for my mums birthday and she absolutely loved it. Definitely buying another one soon, probably for another family member or friend”
