Mother's Day Gift Ideas
AMANDINE SOL BOTANICALS
Amandine Sol Botanicals is a Canadian skincare brand born from a mother-daughter partnership, and a shared desire to simplify routines without sacrificing results. Inspired by a return-to-nature lifestyle, the line blends botanicals with proven essentials and is designed to be multi-use, so each product delivers maximum value. The brand also emphasizes ethical choices through sustainability-minded creation and community support through select foundations. It’s a beautiful way to treat Mom to a daily ritual that feels indulgent.
ONQUATA
Onquata is a Wendat mother-daughter project founded by Lise and Lara, celebrating First Nations culture through hand-painted paddles. Each paddle is crafted to order, honouring ancestral techniques while blending art, heritage, and functionality—it can be displayed as décor or taken out on the water. By collaborating with Indigenous artisans and communities in Wendake, Québec, Onquata preserves traditions, promotes cultural heritage, and creates meaningful connections. A unique, purposeful gift that carries history, beauty, and storytelling in every brushstroke.
ANZIE
Anzie Jewelry began as a family’s response to a hard moment and grew into a brand rooted in philanthropy, creativity, and connection. Founded by Anzie Stein and her husband to help raise awareness for colorectal cancer, the Montréal-based fine-jewelry company is now a true family studio, with Anzie designing and operating alongside her two daughters, Jaclyn and Joanna. Each colourful gemstone piece is meant to be worn with joy, and the story behind it makes it even more meaningful to gift. A keepsake that celebrates Mom and the causes that matter.
SARJESA
Sarjesa is a Calgary-based, women-owned tea company rooted in purpose and social impact. Founded by Alexandra Sangster, the brand creates premium tea blends and herbal tisanes while championing women’s empowerment and gender equity. Partnering with local farmers, women-led organizations, and international small-scale growers, Sarjesa builds a supply chain that prioritizes fair pay, respectful workplaces, and long-term impact. Each cup becomes more than a simple ritual—it’s a gift that supports ethical sourcing, community connection, and the choices and opportunities of women everywhere. A thoughtful way to celebrate Mom while making a difference with every sip.
Sweetgrass Spa
Sweetgrass Spa is Toronto’s women-only sanctuary for relaxation, connection, and renewal, created by women for women and located within Verity, the downtown women’s club founded by Mary Aitken. Set inside a restored 19th-century chocolate factory, the experience blends personalized treatments with calming water therapies, including an ozonated pool, infrared sauna, jacuzzi, and 12 private treatment rooms. For Mother’s Day, it’s a gift of time well spent, a few unhurried hours devoted entirely to her.
