Mothering Instinct
Mothers Day Round-up: Part 1
Forget the boring hand-mixer or the pathetic potpourri set. Let your Mother Goddess in your life go ‘bling’ this Mothers Day.
Is she of the Flower Power generation and counts Janis Joplin as her idol? Buy her an orchid ring by Ekay. Designed by Evren Kayar, it looks both sophisticated and cool. (Ekay, General Yazgan Sok. 6/8A, Asmalimescit-Beyoglu. 0212 293 81 04. evrenkayar.com).
If she’s more folk than stalk and cheery flowers (and very much into glass), try a piece from shibudesign‘s Eccentric Collection. Designer Sebnem Ercelik creates unique items and caters to personal requests. Call her at 0538 601 92 88, or email to sebnem@shibudesign.com.
How about getting her a Doily News design item (made by Ela Cindoruk from recycled newspapers cut in the shape of a doily), and pick up plenty of approval and ecological points from your eco-warrior Mum along the way? (elacindoruknazanpak, Atiye Sok. 14/5, Tesvikiye. 0212 232 26 64. elnajewel.com).
She’ll love them so much; you’ll have to beg her to borrow them occasionally…
