The Ultimate Mother's Day Gift Guide for the Rocky Mountain Mama
Mother’s Day is almost here and we can’t think of a better excuse to spoil the moms in your life! We rounded up some of our favorite Rocky Mountain-based companies, as well as some female and minority-owned businesses, that will make your last minute Mother’s Day shopping a breeze.
One of our favorite local Steamboat Springs, CO businesses is Coleman’s Haberdashery where you can find beautiful handmade items ranging from bracelets and bags, to wallets and money clips. Moms are notoriously the “sherpas” of the household so why not treat her to a gorgeous hand stitched bison leather tote. We also love the handmade leather and brass keychain featuring “LOVE” on one side and a mountain logo on the opposite side.
For the adventurous, outdoorsy mom we have a few Rocky Mountain favorites where you can score stylish gear and outdoor essentials like EyKuver, which will radically simplify taking care of Mom’s eye health while she is enjoying the summer! EyKuver is portable and affordable and makes it easy and convenient for prescription eyeglass wearers to protect their eyes. This self-adhesive film now comes in two colors, blue and gray, and sticks directly to the outside of Mom’s prescription glasses.
Mystery Ranch is a Bozeman, MT based gem of a company that makes the best load-bearing backpacks in the world. We love the durable and affordable Super Market bag which is the ultimate everyday bag for the on-the-go mom. From daily errands and quick shopping trips to cruising around town on her bike, this do-it-all bag that comes in 5 colors is sure to please!
Does your mom like to spend time on the trails? She can and should hike and bike in style and comfort thanks to Shredly. This Colorado female-owned company was created to bring a burst of fresh style into the world of women’s adventuring, while still maintaining technical product performance and unparalleled comfort. We love the Multi-Sport Shortie, but you can’t go wrong with any of their stylish performance gear.
If your mom is not the adventuring type or already has all the gear she needs, consider gifting her something for the kitchen or to pamper herself.
Sure, most moms like flowers, but most flowers don’t last very long. Until now, that is. Check out Lance Whitner, a local Steamboat Springs, CO artist, for beautiful original artwork and prints that will last as long as your love for Mom does.
For artisan and hand-made gifts, we love Verve Culture. They even took the guess-work out of gift giving and compiled their own Mother’s Day guide. From a juicer to make the perfect MOM-osa to cozy blankets to keep her warm, they’ve curated a selection of global gifts with mom in mind. We love the cozy Moroccan blanket!
Treat the mom who loves entertaining to wine glasses from Estelle. This female, black-owned business makes the most beautiful colored glassware that is sure to dazzle Mom on her special day, and everyday after. Choose from stemmed, stemless or coupe glasses or, if you prefer, a gorgeous colored glass cake stand.
Lastly, we couldn’t resist sharing this great sweatshirt from Evereve. After the past year, this is the ultimate gift for the mom, friend, sister, or aunt in your life who you think is killing it at the mom game! It’s also available in a t-shirt. Heck, treat yourself to this one, you deserve it.
