Thanks to everyone who entered the Cute Potato Mother’s Day giveaway! MP is so glad that there are stylish moms out there who adore Kate’s jewelry designs as much as she does. She hopes everyone will be equally enthusiastic about her Kickstarter campaign to create her own traveling jewelry shop. We can’t wait to see her refurbished vintage trailer this summer!
Without further ado, congrats goes to Alexandra Lowery, who likes Kate’s beaded hoop earrings in emerald best. Speaking of favorites, if you’re looking for something for the kids to make for a special grandmother or aunt, here’s some of our best Mother’s Day crafts from over the years:
1. Memory Jar
3. Garden Gift
We hope you’ll enjoy creating something special with your potatoes. Happy Mother’s Day all! xo, MP

MP will admit it, she loves Mother’s Day. It’s like having a birthday all over again. She’s treated to breakfast in the morning, homemade cards from the kids, and the family road trip of her choice.
Sometimes, if she’s been an especially good Mom, there might be a small gift waiting for her at the kitchen table. There are a few beautiful items that are on her wish list this year. Her dream gift is a bag from Michelle Rose of Minka in Kennebunkport. MP has long coveted Michelle’s artfully designed leather handbag, but now Minka is offering a sleek looking shopper, too. Decisions!
