🌿 Eco-Friendly Mother’s Day Gifts from Kiwi Makers
Mother’s Day is more than a celebration — it’s a chance to show love, thoughtfulness, and care. This year, why not make Mum feel special and do something kind for the planet? At The Craft Marketplace, we’re proud to showcase local New Zealand artisans who create gifts that are as sustainable as they are beautiful.
Here are some of our favourite eco-conscious gift ideas — handmade right here in Aotearoa — that show your love for Mum and Papatūānuku.
🌸 1. Natural Skincare with a Conscience
Mums deserve pampering, and what better way to treat her than with handmade, all-natural skincare? Look for products made with native ingredients like harakeke, mānuka honey, or kawakawa, packaged in compostable or refillable containers.
🛍️ Shop pick: Healing Hand and Body Balm
♻️ 2. Reusable, Beautiful Homewares
Help Mum replace the disposable with the delightful. Think everlasting flower arrangements, upcycled saw blade clocks, or gorgeous crochet tablemats and coasters, or amazing serving boards made to order!
🛍️ Shop pick: A Hanging Heart Scent Stone– Handcrafted ceramic heart shaped scent stone.
💎 3. Upcycled Jewellery with Heart
Gifting jewellery doesn’t have to mean mass-produced pieces. Our makers turn recycled metals, beach glass, and even bike tyres! into wearable art.
🛍️ Shop pick: Silver Fern Earrings – Cut from upcycled bike tyre tubes, giving new life to old materials in a beautifully modern form.
🧶 4. Custom made wheelchair accessories
Not all Mum’s are as mobile as they want, why not make life easier with a custom-made wheelchair armrest bag or a custom-made bag for your mobility scooter.
🛍️ Shop pick: Custom Wheelchair armrest bag– Soft, subtle, and one-of-a-kind.
🪴 5. Plant-Based Gifts that Grow
Give Mum something that thrives — like resin plant starters, or handmade ceramic planters. It’s a gift that continues to bloom long after Mother’s Day.
🛍️ Shop pick: Plant starters. Hanging – Plant it, watch it grow and move into the garden!
🌏 Why Shop Local & Sustainable?
Choosing gifts from local Kiwi makers reduces your carbon footprint, supports the community, and helps preserve traditional crafts. Plus, every purchase on The Craft Marketplace helps nurture a circular, eco-conscious economy in Aotearoa.
