I thought you’d like this, Mumsy…
The Mother’s Day gift guide today features fragrant cypress bath goods from Tohoku, herringbone cotton towels by Japan’s Fog Linen Work, and equally luxurious Saipua soaps right from Brooklyn. You can go modest or go big, just get her something she needs!

Oh! You shouldn’t have …
Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 12th. We took it upon ourselves to assemble a Mother’s Day gift giving guide for those of us who always feel mildly at a loss finding anything even remotely on par with how we feel about our moms. It starts with leather BAGGU and luxe offerings of Netherlands-based The Boyscouts jewelry line, two lines with varying prices, so you can get something small or either go all out.

Thank the lord for extreme users because they make life a little more interesting! Here’s an idea from a Wonderful Gift Wrap customer that carries her salad bowl to her friends potluck dinners in a medium sized gift wrap….CLEVER!
Ooh. We like this because it’s an extra layer of in-transit security around a plastic wrap job. Plus it looks festive. And who doesn’t like some festivity ambiance for the party?

Racked Philly knows whats up
We’re honored to have been mentioned twice in some recent “best of” shop round-ups on the Philly edition of Racked, sister site to Curbed, Eater, and Racked National. We want to give props to editor Julie for working like crazy to help promote the best shops in the city. Follow Racked Philly for the latest updates on new store openings, summer sidewalk sales, and when and if Uniqlo is ever gonna get around to making a local debut.

Marna Piggy Steamers
Here comes another great kitchen utensil from Marna, the award winning Japanese design company - these piggies can help out with opening jars, stovetop steaming, and even microwave cookery. Can’t wait to see the steam blowing out of their cute little snouts! (0(oo)0)
