Our Mother's Day Stories

This Mother's Day, get to know the team behind Decadorn. We are all mums, but each of us has a unique story and our own way of celebrating this special day. Join us as we share what Mother’s Day means to us - and, of course, the Decadorn treasures we’ll be gifting to our loved ones.

In my first buying role at 21, I was placed on the flower department for a well known retailer and had to buy and select hundreds of thousands of bouquets for mum’s all across the country - only a few months after losing my own mum.  It was an incredibly hard few months, but I remember thinking how proud my Mum would have been. 

This Mother's day I’ll be creating a Guiding Star Necklace, including my Mum’s birthstone and my two children, a gift to myself and a reminder of the bond between mother and child - the driving force behind Decadorn.

Every year I like to spoil my sisters on Mothers Day. We lost our mum seven years ago and so it’s a bittersweet day for us. We have such busy lives, there's never enough time to connect. I usually lean towards giving them flowers for Mothers Day, but this year I will be gifting them with a gorgeous item from Decadorn. 

My older sister was born in December and is the 'blonde haired blue eyed' beauty in the family. I’m loving the Guiding Star Hoop Earrings in gold, with a tanzanite gemstone for her sunny and positive nature. My younger sister already has a Decadorn piece (the Garnet Tiny Tumbled Bracelet) which I bought for her birthday in January last year, and I had her son's initial stamped on the disc, so I want to spoil her with a necklace to make a set. I love the Garnet Carved Chunky Link Chain Necklace for her as it talks to the meaning of Protection & Truth. She is our pillar of strength in the family,

We remember our mum with so much love. We try to be the best mums we can be each day in her honour.

I'm so lucky to be really close to my lovely Mum and my sister and we always try to celebrate Mother's Day together with all the kids too. We know time is precious, so we try to spend as much of it together as possible. Every year, all 10 of us go on holiday together - a busy but truly special trip.

Last year I gifted my Mum a gorgeous Mother's Day poem by Jessica Urlichs, but this year I'll be getting her one of the Mum & Me necklaces that I know she will love wearing. 

I've got my eye on the Guiding Star Chunky Chain bracelet featuring my birthstone, Amethyst, so will be hoping to get that this year from my boys!

This Mother's Day, I've put the Gold Chunky Chain Guiding Star Bracelet with my beautiful daughters' birthstones, Emerald and Amethyst, on my wish list. And a sleep in of course!

This Mother’s Day, I’ll be buying my mum a Lapis Lazuli tiny tumbled silver bracelet on the chunky chain. She already has the Lapis ear wire earrings as blue is her favourite colour and I’d love to get her this to match. 

She wears lots of bracelets layered up, including some antique bangles which jangle as she walks, so you can always hear her coming! I know she’ll love the chunky bracelet with a flash of her favourite blue, and it will look great with her existing bangles.
