A gift to warm her heart!
Moms and kids just go together...make a donation in her name and join the Highline Schools Foundation in their mission to "make a impact on every student in our district, every day, by providing the resources they need to excel". How do you make this happen? Here are a few ways to do it: 1. Join us on Friday, May 6 from 4 - 7 pm at our Seahurst Shop for our Shopping Party { http://www.paperdelights.com/glassy-baby-paper-delights-moms-day-gifts-a-donation/}. We will be donating 20% of each sale to the Foundation. Glassy Baby will be there with tons of their beautiful, meaningful glass votives! They donate 10% of their sales to the cause! Purchase your gift (we'll tie it up with a pretty tag identifying the donation) and you've got a double whammy: Special gift + donation to local kids' education = what could be better? 2. Give us a call (206-547-1002). We'll pass on your donation and send a beautiful Paper Delights card to your mom to let her know what a great kid she raised!!
Mom's Day Gifting
Business Mom
We love putting together personalized gifts! This is a selection for "Business Mom". Ordinary, useful items made extraordinary. I am always a bit amazed at the pleasure I get from using products that are well-designed, useful and beautiful. Kate Spade gold wire-bound notebook and tablet, heavy-duty gold-toned scissors, gleaming gold business card case and Kate Spade gold pen will put a smile on her face and a sweet thought of you each time she uses them!
Coloring Mom
Give mom her zen moment with a very special coloring book! These illustrations will whisk her away to the streets of Paris as she relaxes with a nice set of pens and colored pencils. We added a bright floral Kate Spade sipping glass to keep her favorite hydration nearby - in style!
Organizing Mom
Sometimes the best pleasure in the world is cleaning and organizing! This little group looks so pretty together! "The life-changing magic of tidying up" elevates and brings real clarity to the task, Caldrea cleaning spray has a heavenly scent and a Kate Spade water bottle is a just reward. Put it all together and Organizing Mom will know you really care!
Entertaining Mom
So many great entertaining and cookbooks in the shop! Great entertainers are always looking for new inspiration! We especially love books with lots of beautiful pics. Entertaining Mom always appreciates having a nice little supply of charming cocktail napkins and coasters on hand for drop-in guests and the big soirees she's known for!
